Custom WordPress Development
I have built custom content management systems from scratch, but due to unanimous client preference, I now work exclusively with WordPress.
This does not mean installing pre-made themes and stacking plugins. Custom WordPress development means you get a fast, efficient, custom-built theme with only the features you need—no unnecessary code, no bloated plugins, and no confusing extras to slow your site down.
Using minimal plugins and custom coding, I can integrate whatever functionality your site requires. With custom post types, you get an easy-to-use input system that ensures consistent front-end layouts with zero formatting errors. Just enter your data, and it’s done. Whether you need interlinked content, category filtering, multi-filters, masonry grids, custom sorting, expandable content, or other advanced functionality, I can build it to fit your needs—while keeping the site simple to update for you or your team.
Design & Accessibility
In recent years, I’ve focused heavily on creating custom designs that prioritize usability and logical navigation. My goal is to deliver clean, distraction-free layouts that let your brand shine while ensuring the most important information stands out.
Accessibility is a top priority, and I have spent years studying and implementing best practices to meet the highest WCAG standards. Every design decision takes into account usability for all users, ensuring an inclusive experience.
Collaboration is key to a successful design process. I work closely with clients to align on special features, layout strategies, typography, colors, and graphics to create a cohesive and effective design. Keeping the project moving forward smoothly depends on timely communication from both sides, ensuring momentum and progress throughout development.
Mobile Optimization
Mobile responsiveness is essential for a successful website. Google now prioritizes mobile-first indexing, meaning your site’s mobile version directly impacts search rankings. But beyond SEO, mobile-friendliness is about delivering a smooth and accessible experience for visitors, no matter what device they’re using.
With the endless variety of screen sizes and resolutions, ensuring a site looks great everywhere can feel overwhelming. With nearly 20 years of experience writing media queries and responsive layouts, I make sure your website adapts seamlessly—whether it’s viewed on a phone, tablet, or desktop.
SEO
I offer Search Engine Optimization (SEO) services, including meta title and description optimization, Google Search Console setup, and Google Analytics integration. Regular adjustments can be made to help improve your rankings and keep you competitive in your field.
Since content is a key factor in SEO, I also provide guidance on structuring site content and layouts to further enhance visibility. Unlike many SEO services that require hefty monthly retainers, I only charge for the time spent analyzing data and making adjustments, ensuring a cost-effective approach tailored to your needs.
Tech Support and Maintenance
Web standards are constantly evolving, and a site that was once fully compliant won’t stay that way forever. Security risks also change over time — scripts that were secure when first implemented can become vulnerable as hackers develop new tactics. Regular updates are essential to maintain security, efficiency, and compatibility across all devices and browsers.
To keep your site running smoothly and prevent vulnerabilities, I recommend:
- Professional updates at least once per year to ensure security patches and performance improvements are applied.
- A full code review every three years to bring everything up to current web standards
I provide ongoing tech support, so if you have any questions, encounter problems, or need an update or alteration, help is just an email away.
Updating and Securing Older Websites
If you have an older website, it likely needs to be updated to meet current coding standards. Love your existing design? You don’t have to change it — your site can be modernized, secured, and optimized while keeping the look you prefer.
For sites that have fallen behind on maintenance, security risks increase. If your site has been infected with malware or flagged by Google or blacklist monitors, I can:
- Clean and scan your website to remove malicious code
- Re-submit the site to Google once cleaned
- Provide guidance on preventing future infections to keep your site safe
Whether your site just needs an update or a full security overhaul, I can help ensure it’s stable, secure, and fully functional.
Website Conversions and Hosting Migrations
If you have an existing website that’s expensive or difficult to update, converting it to WordPress gives you the ability to edit, update, and manage your content with ease — no technical expertise required. Instead of relying on a developer for every small change, you can make updates whenever needed, reducing costs and giving you complete control over your site.
Keeping your content up to date ensures your audience always has accurate and relevant information, helping them make informed decisions about your services. Whether you need to add new pages, update pricing, publish blog posts, or refresh images, WordPress makes the process straightforward and efficient.
If you’re also having issues with web hosting, migrating your website to a new host is often simpler than you might think. A smooth transition ensures minimal downtime while improving site speed, security, and reliability. I can handle the migration process, making sure your website is set up correctly and optimized for performance.
If you’re ready to modernize your site and take control of your content, I can help make the transition seamless.
