A company website is a sales channel, a support channel and often the first impression for customers, investors and job applicants. Yet many sites are managed on the side: plugins go unpatched, pages load slowly, forms quietly stop working and content updates wait weeks. 360 Soft provides website management outsourcing from Istanbul: a team that handles technical maintenance, security, performance, SEO hygiene and content updates for your website under agreed service levels.

What website management outsourcing is and who needs it

Website management outsourcing means that an external team takes ongoing responsibility for running your website: hosting coordination, updates, backups, monitoring, fixes, content publishing and improvements. It suits companies without an internal web team, marketing departments that need a reliable execution partner, and groups running several sites or language versions. We work with WordPress and WooCommerce, other CMS platforms such as Drupal or headless CMS set-ups, and custom-built sites. Teams range from one web specialist to 200+ people, working remotely, on-site or hybrid.

Standards and regulations

Websites must meet data protection rules for cookies, forms and analytics: KVKK for Türkiye, the GDPR and ePrivacy rules in the EU, UK GDPR and PECR in the UK, and state privacy laws in the US. Accessibility is increasingly a legal requirement: WCAG 2.1/2.2 AA is the common reference, and the European Accessibility Act applies to many consumer-facing services in the EU. E-commerce sites also need consumer protection and payment security (PCI DSS) considerations. Local rules in your country apply, and we implement consent management, privacy notices and accessibility fixes according to your legal guidance.

Delivery models

  • Care plan: a monthly service covering updates, backups, monitoring and a set number of change hours.
  • Managed website service: 360 Soft owns uptime, security, performance and publishing under SLAs.
  • Dedicated web team: developers, a content editor, an SEO specialist and a project lead working only for you.
  • Project-based: redesign, migration, multilingual expansion or performance programme.

Process

  1. Audit: hosting, CMS and plugin inventory, security scan, performance and SEO baseline, backup status.
  2. Proposal: scope, SLAs, team and a prioritised improvement list.
  3. Onboarding: access, staging environment, monitoring and backup set-up, documentation.
  4. Stabilisation: critical updates, security hardening and quick performance wins.
  5. Ongoing management: scheduled maintenance windows, change requests through a ticket system, monthly reports.
  6. Improvement: conversion, SEO and UX work according to your goals.

Risks and mitigations

  • Breaking updates: staging-first updates, visual regression checks and rollback plans.
  • Security incidents: hardening, monitoring, tested backups and an incident response procedure.
  • Loss of control: domain, hosting and CMS admin accounts remain owned by you.
  • SEO losses during changes: redirect maps and pre-launch checks for every migration.
  • Dependency on the provider: documentation and an exit plan.

Security, data protection, NDA and IP

Staff sign NDAs and use individual accounts with MFA and least privilege. We sign a B2B service agreement with IP assignment, so designs, code and content belong to you. For EU, UK and international clients we sign a GDPR data processing agreement with Standard Contractual Clauses (UK IDTA where relevant); for Turkish data a KVKK-compliant agreement. Form submissions and customer data are handled only as far as needed for maintenance.

Illustrative scenario: a multilingual corporate website

Illustrative scenario: an industrial company runs a corporate site in four languages. Updates have been postponed for months, some forms send no e-mails and language versions are out of sync. Our team moves updates to a staging workflow, fixes form delivery, sets up uptime and form monitoring, corrects hreflang and redirects, and creates a content request process so marketing can publish new pages in all languages within agreed turnaround times. This example illustrates the approach and does not describe a specific client.

  • Your ownership of domain, hosting and admin accounts
  • IP assignment, NDA and GDPR/KVKK data processing terms
  • Ability to scale for redesigns and campaigns

Frequently asked questions

Which platforms do you manage?

WordPress and WooCommerce, other CMS platforms such as Drupal and headless CMS set-ups, and custom-built websites.

Do you host the website?

We can work with your existing hosting, coordinate with your provider or recommend and manage a suitable environment. Accounts remain in your name.

How are updates applied safely?

Updates are tested on a staging copy first, checked visually and functionally, and then deployed with a rollback plan.

What happens if the site is hacked?

We follow an incident procedure: isolate, clean, restore from a clean backup, close the vulnerability and report what happened.

Do you also update content?

Yes. Content operations such as pages, blog posts, landing pages and translations can be part of the monthly scope.

Can you improve site speed?

Yes. We optimise Core Web Vitals through caching, CDN, image and code optimisation, and database clean-up.

Do you help with cookie consent and accessibility?

Yes. We implement consent management and accessibility fixes based on WCAG, following your legal guidance.

Can you manage several websites and languages?

Yes. We manage multi-site and multilingual set-ups, including hreflang and translation workflows.

How fast can you start?

Typically within 1–2 weeks after approval and access set-up.

What is the smallest engagement?

A monthly care plan for one website. You can add hours or a dedicated team later.

Who owns the website and its code?

You do. Domain, hosting and admin accounts stay in your name, and IP in deliverables is assigned to you.
