In brief
Typical situations where I help
- The agency is gone: It has closed down, no longer supports TYPO3 or no longer responds.
- Outdated version: Your TYPO3 version no longer gets security updates.
- The hosting provider is changing PHP: The website is at risk of no longer running or is already showing errors.
- Missing access: It is no longer clear who has access to the backend, server or domain.
- Something is broken: Error messages, blank pages or a suspected attack.
In the case of an acute attack or malware, my page help for hacked websites can also help you.
Approach
From uncertainty to a well-supported website
First I create clarity, then security, and then a solution that lasts for the long term.
Analyzing the setup
Version, extensions, custom modifications and server are recorded and assessed.
Securing right away
Create a backup, close critical vulnerabilities, renew passwords and access.
A clear plan
You get an easy-to-understand assessment: update, upgrade or rebuild, with effort and order of steps.
Modernizing
If you like, I bring the website up to the current TYPO3 long-term support version.
Long-term support
After that, I take over maintenance and support, so you are never left without a contact again.

Security first
Secure first, then modernize
An outdated TYPO3 version doesn't have to be rebuilt right away. What matters is that it runs securely until the upgrade and that you know where you stand.
- Backup: a complete backup before anything is changed
- Access: remove old accounts, renew passwords
- Vulnerabilities: close known weaknesses wherever possible
- Plan: an upgrade to the current LTS version, plannable and at a fixed price

Frequently asked questions about taking over TYPO3 websites
My old agency can no longer be reached. What now?
First, we clarify who has access to the domain, server and backend. In most cases, access can be restored through the hosting provider or the domain registrar. After that, I secure the website.
Can you work with code written by others?
Yes. I familiarize myself with custom extensions and modifications made by other agencies and document what I find.
Does my website have to be rebuilt right away?
No. Often an upgrade to the current version is enough. After the analysis, I tell you honestly which option makes more sense and costs less.
How quickly can you help?
In urgent cases, it is best to call me directly. I will get back to you as quickly as possible and tell you what needs to be done first.
How much does a takeover cost?
That depends on the condition of the website. After the analysis, you get a quote. Prices are available on request.
Which TYPO3 versions do you take over?
Very old versions too. The older the version, the more important it is to secure it quickly and plan the upgrade.
