Get in Touch

We get it—website maintenance is a headache

🚨 Emergency fixes are expensive

Your site goes down at the worst possible moment, and you’re scrambling to find someone who can fix it. Emergency rates hurt, and downtime costs even more.

🔐 Security keeps you worried

Drupal and WordPress security updates come out constantly. Miss one, and you’re vulnerable. Your team doesn’t have time to track every patch.

⚡ Performance issues lose you sales

Slow load times and broken functionality frustrate visitors. You know it’s hurting conversions, but fixing performance issues isn’t your team’s expertise.

♿ Accessibility compliance is confusing

WCAG standards are complex, and non-compliance opens you to lawsuits. You need someone who actually understands accessibility.

Our maintenance process

Proactive maintenance that prevents expensive emergencies and keeps you focused on your business. We catch problems before they cost you money—here’s exactly how we do it.

Security monitoring & patching

We apply critical security updates within 24 hours of release. Your sites stay protected from the vulnerabilities that lead to ransomware and data breaches.

Quarterly health audits

We run quarterly comprehensive technical audits using enterprise tools (Lighthouse, SEMrush, Silktide) to identify performance bottlenecks, SEO issues, and accessibility problems before they impact revenue. Better performance = higher search rankings = more sales.

Error log monitoring & resolution

We actively monitor your site’s error logs, catching critical issues like broken pages, database errors, and server problems before they affect your visitors. Most site owners never check their logs—meaning small problems can snowball into major outages. We identify patterns, fix recurring issues at their source, and alert you to anything that needs immediate attention.

Accessibility

We perform accessibility WCAG 2.0 AA compliance audits when onboarding clients and quarterly to ensure your site is usable by everyone.

Safe updates & testing

We test all plugin/theme updates on staging environments before applying to your live site. No more broken websites from “routine” updates.

Emergency response team

When things do go wrong, we’re already familiar with your site. Fast fixes from people who know your setup inside and out.

What our clients say

Penn State University Libraries had the pleasure of working with Daggerhart Lab for a year on an ambitious project to migrate our 38 websites from Drupal 7 to Drupal 10. From the very beginning, they were more than consultants—they became an integral part of our team.

Daggerhart Lab provided exceptional consulting services, staff augmentation, and developer training, bringing their expertise and delightful personalities to our daily standups, co-working sessions, and collaborative efforts. Their ability to seamlessly integrate into our team made this complex migration not only achievable but also an enjoyable experience.

Thanks to their dedication and skill, we successfully transitioned to Drupal 10, and we couldn’t be more thrilled with the outcome. While we’re excited about the success of this migration, we’re also genuinely sorry that we won’t get to see the Daggerhart Lab team every day. It was an absolute joy working with them, and we wholeheartedly recommend their services to anyone in need of top-notch web development and consulting expertise.

Manager of Discovery Access and Web Services, Penn State University Libraries

We started working with Daggerhart Lab as our small company was dealing with the Lead Developer stepping away. Normally this would have been a really challenging situation to navigate but having the Daggerhart Lab team there to support made the transition seamless. It’s easy enough to hire a developer who can be given a project and finish it but Daggerhart Lab can be given a problem and work collaboratively to find a solution that is effective, in budget, and easy to maintain (documentation for everything!!). Everyone that I’ve worked with here has been communicative & an absolute joy to work with. We’ve seen huge improvements in our metrics and internal team efficiencies because of our work with the team. I would recommend them without a second thought.

Go Overseas

It is an absolute pleasure to work with the entire Daggerhart Lab team. They are all personable and relatable. I always felt that I could be open and honest, especially when I didn’t understand the technical pieces of the new build process. The new admin dashboard they made for us is so easy to use now! The team was quick to respond to our questions throughout the build and continue to be now that we’re in the maintenance and support phase with them.

We were looking to simplify our SSO plugin to make things easier to track and troubleshoot. Daggerhart Lab provided an all-in-one plugin solution for our SSO that simplified our internal processes with ample documentation and a focus on longevity of solutions (no quick fixes!). These guys are experts in their fields and creative problem solvers—they are committed to creating quality products while maintaining an air of professionalism. I would definitely recommend them!

Marketing and Design Manager, American Society for Cell Biology

I appreciate that the Daggerhart Lab team is about creative solutions, not ‘this is how your industry presents website information’ so you should do it this way too. Throughout our new website design process, it really was a collaboration. As we navigated the design or structural elements of the new website, it was easy to have transparent conversations to get past barriers or differing opinions on site functionality. Post-launch, it continues to be a delight working with the Daggerhart Lab team to make our website even better.

Tori Middelstadt
Executive Director, Visit Grants Pass

The Daggerhart Lab team has been a PLEASURE to work with! They do an excellent job of exploring what we need and mapping out the plan to get there that keeps in mind our budget and the expertise of our team members. They have an uncanny ability to neither speak down to you nor talk about technical issues in a way non-tech people can understand. The weaving of the expertise of their team members allows us to maximize our dollars, and as a small nonprofit org, that is transformative.

Jody Thomas, PhD
CEO, Meg Foundation

As a small independent business owner, one of my biggest challenges has been finding the right partners to work with in order to grow my business. Daggerhart Lab is that diamond in the rough. To work with a team that is truly looking out for me, not because they have to but because it is simply a part of who they are as a company. Time and time again the team has worked above and beyond to ensure that my investment with them is applied to maximize my return with tangible results. I would highly recommend Daggerhart Lab for web builds, SEO optimization and more. I look forward to a long-term business relationship with them.

Tracee Box
Owner, Nature's Root

It was very enjoyable to be surrounded by a team of competent professionals of all domains when working with Daggerhart Lab. The focus is always on quality. It was always a very respectful collaboration.
