Always Improving

What We've Shipped Lately

These updates describe routine care and features included with managed websites. Availability depends on the tools and scope agreed for your site.

October 2026

The Clear Cut Mobile Portal

Clients now have a home base for their website at login.clearcutdigital.com. Sign in with the email address you use with us and enter the 6-digit code we send; there’s no password to remember. The dashboard shows whether your site is online, its uptime over the last 30 days, and this month’s visitors, pages viewed, and contact actions compared with the same days last month. It also lists your most visited pages, where each edit request stands, and your monthly reports. If you handle billing, you can update your card and download invoices on Stripe’s secure page. On a phone, add the portal to your home screen and it opens like an app.

Easier Edits, Right On Your Site

Choose Edit my site in the portal and your website opens with a small editing bar along the bottom. Click any text to type new wording, swap a photo, or leave a note right on the page. Text changes send a moment after you stop typing, and Your changes shows where each one stands: In review, Planned, Live, or We have a question. You’ll also get an email when your edits are live. Our team reviews every change before it’s published, so nothing on your site changes until it’s approved.

Clearer Monthly Reports

Starting with the November 1 report, the monthly email has a new look to match our website and puts the numbers that matter most first. Phone taps, email clicks, and form submissions are combined into one contact actions number compared with last month, and each one is listed with its page, date, and time so you can match it to your calls and inbox. Repeat taps on the same number or address in one visit now count once. The report also shows how people found you, your most visited pages, and the devices they used. Reports still arrive on the first of each month, and from November 1 each one is also saved in the client portal.

A Simpler Start For New Clients

Getting started with us now takes one personal link. New clients read and sign a plain-English agreement online, then tell us about their business in the same place: their services, the areas they serve, the colors they want, and a website they like. There’s no printing, scanning, or long email chain.

24/7 Uptime Monitoring

Our monitoring server checks each managed website every 60 seconds. If a check detects an outage, an alert prompts our team to investigate.

Email, Phone, And Form Tracking

Monthly reports now include timestamped phone taps, email clicks, and form submissions. Compare those actions with incoming inquiries; a click alone does not confirm a completed call or email. Reports arrive on the first of each month, and current numbers are available at analytics.clearcutdigital.com.

Sitewide SEO Refinements

Zack completed a 20-hour SEO course this year and used it to review client sites. Updates included business details that search engines can read, keyword adjustments, and page-structure improvements. We continue to maintain those foundations without promising a ranking or traffic number.

Stronger Anti-Spam Protection

Where needed, contact forms use CAPTCHA, submission-timing checks, and hidden fields to help filter automated spam. These checks reduce unwanted submissions without relying on one filter alone.

Monthly Analytics Reporting

On the first of each month, clients receive an email report covering traffic and visitor activity. It includes phone taps, email clicks, and form submissions, with help from our team if you have questions. Current numbers are also available at analytics.clearcutdigital.com.
