Websites built, fixed and looked after
Your website shouldn’t be another thing you have to worry about.

Three ways I can help
Build it, fix it or look after it.
Choose the help you need: a new WordPress website, practical WordPress support for an existing site, or managed hosting and ongoing care.
01
Build it
Websites. I create new WordPress websites and rebuild old or ineffective ones. They’re responsive, straightforward to update and set up with practical forms, useful integrations and sensible SEO foundations.
B
02
Fix it
WordPress Support. I sort out broken or troublesome WordPress sites — from plugin and theme problems, failed updates, slow pages and forms that stop working to migrations, small improvements and taking over a site someone else built.
F
03
Look after it
Hosting & Care. Managed WordPress hosting, updates, backups, monitoring, maintenance and security basics, with a familiar person to call when something goes wrong and sensible ongoing improvements when they’re useful.
C
Something more specific
Need something the usual plugins can’t do?
I also build small bespoke web tools, calculators, forms, integrations and custom functionality when a business needs something more specific. Find out about bespoke tools.

Is Your WordPress Website Actually Ready to Launch?
A website can look completely finished and still not be ready for customers. These are the practical things worth checking before you make a WordPress site live.
Useful answers
A few common questions.
Can you take over a WordPress site someone else built?
Yes. I can review how an existing site has been built and take on fixes, support or ongoing care without starting again unnecessarily.
Will I be able to edit the site?
Yes. I build with WordPress’s native Gutenberg blocks wherever practical, so everyday changes stay simple. You can update text, images and page content yourself without needing a developer for every small change.
Do I have to move my hosting?
Not always. I’ll only recommend moving if the current hosting is part of the problem or managed care needs a better setup.
Can you move an existing WordPress site?
Yes. I can migrate an existing WordPress site for a hosting move, as part of a rebuild or to put it onto a setup that is easier to manage.
Can you fix a site without rebuilding it?
Often, yes. I diagnose the problem before recommending a rebuild, so a focused repair stays a repair when that is the sensible answer.
Can you help if my WordPress site is slow?
Yes. Slow sites can be caused by hosting, plugins, themes, database issues or heavy page assets, so the first step is to identify the actual cause rather than guess.
Can you help with SEO?
Yes. Sensible SEO foundations are part of website builds and ongoing improvement work, including site structure, technical basics and content that search engines can understand. I do not offer standalone SEO campaigns or promise rankings.
Do you only work with WordPress?
No. WordPress websites, support and care are the core services, but I also build focused web tools when a business needs functionality that does not belong in a standard WordPress setup.
Do you look after websites after they are built?
Yes. Ongoing Hosting & Care is available for WordPress sites and can cover managed hosting, updates, backups, monitoring, maintenance and practical support.
Can you build something custom if a plugin does not exist?
Yes. That might be a calculator, form, integration or small workflow tool built around a clear business need. See how bespoke tools work.
What do you need from me to get started?
A website URL, a short description of what is wrong or what you want to achieve, and any useful examples are enough to start. You do not need to write a polished technical brief.

What’s your website making harder than it should be?
