Written proposals, no minimum budget. By [Nicolás Cerón](https://dardo.studio/en/nicolas-ceron/) · Updated Nov 15, 2026 · 5 min read [Get a proposal](https://dardo.studio/en/contact/) ## Working with Dardo from Phoenix Dardo is a three-person design studio in Bogotá, Colombia, led by its founder, Nicolás Cerón. We work with companies in Phoenix remotely: there is no Dardo office in Phoenix. Calls happen on video, in English or Spanish, and everything we agree goes into a written proposal. Bogotá keeps UTC−5 all year, with no daylight saving time. Phoenix is 2 hours behind Bogotá all year, so a nine-to-five day in Phoenix shares 6 working hours with a nine-to-five day in Bogotá. A project starts with a brief through the [contact form](https://dardo.studio/en/contact/?service=website-maintenance), by email to hello@dardo.studio or on WhatsApp. Nicolás replies within one business day with the questions that set the scope. The proposal that follows lists the scope, deliverables, assumptions, exclusions, payment stages, a timeline and the people doing the work, by name. Published starting prices: Website maintenance plan from USD 79 a month. Anything beyond that is quoted by scope, with no minimum budget. [Pricing](https://dardo.studio/en/pricing/) explains how a quote is built. ## What do website maintenance services include? A maintenance plan covers the parts of a website that fail without warning, plus the support to fix and improve it. Every plan includes monitoring and backups; the higher tiers add tested updates and change hours. The proposal marks what your plan covers, adjusted to the platform: - Uptime of the home page and the pages that bring inquiries, checked from outside your hosting - SSL certificates on every domain and subdomain, domain expiry and DNS records, including the ones email depends on - Form delivery: a scheduled test submission confirms inquiries still reach the inbox or CRM - Updates to the CMS, plugins, themes, apps and code dependencies, tested on a staging copy before production - Off-site backups, with a restore tested on a schedule - Security headers, vulnerability scans and a review of who has admin access - Performance after each release, so a heavy image or script is caught the same week - Small content and design changes within the plan's hours: text, images, a page from an existing template, links and redirects The [website maintenance service page](https://dardo.studio/en/services/website-maintenance/) has the full scope, the process and the questions buyers ask. ## How fast websites in the United States are on phones In October 2026, 63.9% of the websites in the United States measured by Chrome's user experience report passed all three Core Web Vitals on phones, according to the [HTTP Archive](https://httparchive.org/reports/techreport/landing). The platform behind a site moves that number: __How fast websites in the United States are on phones__ | Platform | Sites measured | Pass on phones | | ----------- | -------------- | -------------- | | Wix | 34,241 | 88.8% | | Shopify | 118,272 | 86.1% | | Squarespace | 40,344 | 82.9% | | Framer | 1,909 | 82.2% | | Webflow | 15,239 | 80.9% | | WordPress | 330,180 | 63.3% | Speed comes from how a site is built more than from the platform, and Google uses Core Web Vitals in search. The [platform speed report](https://dardo.studio/en/tools/website-platform-speed-report/) has the same numbers for other countries. ## Rules a website in Phoenix has to meet These are the rules we plan around for sites that serve customers in Phoenix. They are a starting point, not legal advice. - **The ADA and websites:** the Department of Justice says the Americans with Disabilities Act covers the websites of businesses open to the public, and points to WCAG as the reference. - **State and local governments:** a 2024 DOJ rule requires WCAG 2.1 AA from state and local government websites, from April 2026 for larger governments and April 2027 for smaller ones. We build to WCAG 2.2 AA and set up consent and forms for these rules from the first brief. ## Work you can check Projects from 2026, each with its published result: - [Janus Observatory](https://dardo.studio/en/work/janus-observatory/) (Science / Interactive storytelling, 2026). −47.9% 3D models: 8.2 MB instead of 15.8 MB. - [Hyper](https://dardo.studio/en/work/hyper/) (AI / Customer intelligence, 2026). USD 10 per customer research report on hypers.dev. - [Gissi](https://dardo.studio/en/work/gissi/) (Education / Music & arts, 2026). 34 → 416 Google clicks: 3 months before, 9 days after relaunch. - [superame.lol](https://dardo.studio/en/work/superame/) (Community / Digital products, 2026). 17 currencies in Spanish, Portuguese and English. - [Shiimain](https://dardo.studio/en/work/shiimain/) (Public data / Territorial intelligence, 2026). 4 days to build, 27 to 30 May 2026. None of these clients is in Phoenix. They are the projects we can show, with their numbers. ## Questions before you choose **Does Dardo have an office in Phoenix?** No. Dardo is a three-person studio in Bogotá, Colombia, and works with companies in Phoenix remotely, on video calls, in English or Spanish. **What is the time difference between Phoenix and Bogotá?** Phoenix is 2 hours behind Bogotá all year. Bogotá keeps UTC−5 all year, so a nine-to-five day in Phoenix shares 6 working hours with ours. **How much does website maintenance cost with Dardo?** Website maintenance plan from USD 79 a month. Each project is quoted by scope in an itemized written proposal in US dollars, with no minimum budget. **How much does a website maintenance plan cost?** Plans start at USD 79 a month for monitoring, tested updates, backups and a monthly report. The final price depends on the platform, the number of plugins and integrations, the change hours included and the response times you need: a static Astro site with one form costs less to maintain than a WordPress store with many plugins and a payment gateway. Dardo confirms each plan's price after the initial audit. **What is included in website maintenance?** Monitoring of uptime, SSL certificates, the domain and form delivery; updates tested on a staging copy; off-site backups with restore tests; security scans and an access review; small content and design changes; and a monthly report. Dardo's plan tiers differ in how many updates and change hours they include and how fast we respond. ## Sources & further reading Sources behind this page, with further detail from the original publishers. - [HTTP Archive technology report (Core Web Vitals by platform and country)](https://httparchive.org/reports/techreport/landing) · httparchive.org - [Guidance on Web Accessibility and the ADA, ADA.gov](https://www.ada.gov/resources/web-guidance/) · ada.gov - [Fact Sheet: New Rule on the Accessibility of Web Content and Mobile Apps, ADA.gov](https://www.ada.gov/resources/2024-03-08-web-rule/) · ada.gov - [IANA time zone database](https://www.iana.org/time-zones) · iana.org - [CA/Browser Forum: TLS Baseline Requirements (relevant dates)](https://cabforum.org/working-groups/server/baseline-requirements/requirements/) · cabforum.org - [CA/Browser Forum: Ballot SC-081v3, schedule of reducing validity periods](https://cabforum.org/2025/04/11/ballot-sc081v3-introduce-schedule-of-reducing-validity-and-data-reuse-periods/) · cabforum.org - [Patchstack: State of WordPress Security in 2026](https://patchstack.com/whitepaper/state-of-wordpress-security-in-2026/) · patchstack.com ## Website maintenance in nearby cities - [ScottsdaleAZ](https://dardo.studio/en/website-maintenance-scottsdale/) - [TucsonAZ](https://dardo.studio/en/website-maintenance-tucson/) - [Las VegasNV](https://dardo.studio/en/website-maintenance-las-vegas/) - [San DiegoCA](https://dardo.studio/en/website-maintenance-san-diego/) - [Los AngelesCA](https://dardo.studio/en/website-maintenance-los-angeles/) - [DenverCO](https://dardo.studio/en/website-maintenance-denver/) - [San JoseCA](https://dardo.studio/en/website-maintenance-san-jose/) - [SacramentoCA](https://dardo.studio/en/website-maintenance-sacramento/) - [Santa RosaCA](https://dardo.studio/en/website-maintenance-santa-rosa/) - [BoiseID](https://dardo.studio/en/website-maintenance-boise/) - [Oklahoma CityOK](https://dardo.studio/en/website-maintenance-oklahoma-city/) - [San AntonioTX](https://dardo.studio/en/website-maintenance-san-antonio/) [Website maintenance in the United States](https://dardo.studio/en/website-maintenance-usa/) · [Website maintenance by city](https://dardo.studio/en/website-maintenance/) ## Other services in Phoenix - [AI SEO agency in Phoenix](https://dardo.studio/en/ai-seo-agency-phoenix/) - [Branding agency in Phoenix](https://dardo.studio/en/branding-agency-phoenix/) - [Creative agency in Phoenix](https://dardo.studio/en/creative-agency-phoenix/) - [SEO agency in Phoenix](https://dardo.studio/en/seo-agency-phoenix/) - [Web design in Phoenix](https://dardo.studio/en/web-design-agency/phoenix/) - [Web development in Phoenix](https://dardo.studio/en/web-development-phoenix/) - [WordPress maintenance in Phoenix](https://dardo.studio/en/wordpress-maintenance-phoenix/) [Dardo](https://dardo.studio/) · [Maintenance by city](https://dardo.studio/en/website-maintenance/) · Phoenix ## Start with a brief Send what you need, your languages and your deadline.
