Hire a Dedicated WordPress Developer Who Builds for Growth

of all websites on the internet run on WordPress, more than every other platform combined.

of WordPress security issues trace back to poorly coded plugins, not the platform itself.

are all you get. Most visitors abandon a slow-loading site before it even finishes rendering.

Marketplaces (Upwork, Fiverr, PeoplePerHour)

Huge selection, wide price range, and the vetting responsibility falls almost entirely on you. Fine for small, clearly scoped tasks. Riskier for anything business-critical.

Vetted Talent Platforms (Toptal, Codeable)

Pre-screened and higher quality on average, at a real premium in both price and process. Makes sense for complex, mission-critical builds.

Agencies

A full team and formal process, useful for large, multi-part projects. You typically won't work with the same person throughout, and it costs accordingly.

Direct, Independent Developers

You talk to and work with the actual person doing the build, start to finish. No middle layer, no account manager, and the relationship carries forward for future work.

Your site takes 6+ seconds to load and you know it's costing you visitors and rankings.

Every plugin update breaks something, and updating your own site feels like defusing a bomb.

Your site got hacked or flagged once, and you never fully trusted it again after.

It was built with a page builder years ago, and it shows the moment anyone looks closely.

Your WooCommerce store works, technically, but checkout abandonment is quietly bleeding you dry.

You've hired a cheap WordPress freelancer before, and you're still cleaning up the mess.

Custom Theme Development

Built from scratch around your brand, not a modified ThemeForest template.

WooCommerce Stores

Product pages, checkout flows, and payment gateways built to actually convert.

Speed & Performance

Core Web Vitals, image optimization, and caching done right, not just a plugin toggle.

Security & Malware Cleanup

Hardened installs, and if you've already been hacked, a full clean-up and lockdown.

Site Migration

Moving hosts or platforms without losing your rankings, content, or your mind.

Maintenance & Support

Ongoing updates, backups, and monitoring so you're never the one googling error messages.

Custom Plugin Development

Fully custom plugins built from scratch when an off-the-shelf option doesn't exist or comes with more bloat than benefit. Written to WordPress coding standards, not patched together from forum snippets.

SEO-Ready Builds

Clean code, schema markup, and structure that gives Google no reason to ignore you.

Custom Fields & Data Structures

Advanced Custom Fields setups so your team can manage complex content without touching code.

API & Third-Party Integrations

Payment gateways, CRMs, and other tools your business already runs on, connected properly.

Multilingual Setup

WPML or Polylang configuration for businesses serving more than one language or region.

Gutenberg Block Development

Custom blocks for the native WordPress editor when off-the-shelf blocks fall short.

Theme Customization

You have a theme you like, it just doesn't quite fit. We adjust, extend, or rebuild parts of an existing theme instead of starting from zero.

A Single Custom Plugin

One specific piece of functionality your site is missing, built as a standalone plugin so it survives theme changes and updates.

Performance Fixes

Your site works, it's just slow. We diagnose what's actually causing it (usually not what you'd guess) and fix that specifically.

Emergency Security Fix

Hacked, flagged by Google, or just worried. We clean it up, harden it, and explain in plain language what happened.

Migration, Done Carefully

Moving hosts or platforms, planned specifically to protect your existing content, URLs, and rankings.

Ongoing Maintenance

A standing arrangement covering updates, backups, and monitoring, so nothing becomes an emergency in the first place.

Pixel-Perfect on Every Screen

Tested across desktop, tablet, and mobile before launch, not after clients complain.

An Admin Panel You Can Actually Use

Clean, simple WP admin setup so updating content never needs a developer.

You'll See the Numbers Move

Analytics set up from day one, so we both know what's actually working.

"we already have a WordPress site, why rebuild it?"

Sometimes you don't need to. On the call we'll tell you honestly if this is a fix, not a full rebuild.

"we don't want to lose our Google rankings."

Neither do we, that's the whole point of a proper migration plan instead of a copy-paste job.

"we've been burned by cheap WordPress freelancers."

So have most of our clients. That's usually why they end up here. Read the testimonials above before you decide.

"we just need something small fixed, not a whole project."

That's fine. Not every call ends in a full rebuild, sometimes it's a single plugin, a speed fix, or pointing you in the right direction.

"What if we don't know enough to explain what we need?"

You don't need to arrive with a spec. Describe the problem in your own words, figuring out the technical "how" is our job, not yours.

"Is a 30-minute call really enough time?"

For scoping, yes. It's enough to understand your problem, tell you honestly if we can help, and outline next steps either way.

"How many plugins do you typically install on a build?"

If the answer is north of 15, that's usually a sign of gluing plugins together instead of writing custom code.

"Can we see something similar to our project, not just any portfolio piece?"

A broad portfolio is easy to fake. Relevant, specific examples are harder to.

"What's your approach to security, specifically?"

A vague "we keep things updated" is a red flag. You want a real answer about hardening, backups, and monitoring.

"What happens after launch if something breaks?"

If there's no clear answer, you're on your own the moment the invoice is paid.

"How do you handle Core Web Vitals and page speed?"

Anyone who can only say "we use a caching plugin" hasn't actually diagnosed a slow site before.

"What's your testing process before launch?"

Cross-browser, cross-device, and broken-link checks should be a given, not an afterthought you have to ask for.

"Will we own the site outright, code and all?"

Some developers quietly lock you into their own proprietary theme or hosting. Get this in writing before you start.

Freelancers

Work well for smaller projects, tight budgets, or quick fixes. The trade-off is that everything rides on one person's availability, so ask about backup plans.

Agencies

Make sense for business-critical builds with complex integrations. You get structure, process, and QA layers, and you pay a premium for them.

Dedicated Developers

Fit ongoing, scaling needs, essentially an in-house hire without the overhead. Overkill if you just need one project done well.
