Taras H.
Expert WordPress Developer & Designer | Figma | Gutenberg | ACF | AI
I build modern, fast, mobile-responsive WordPress websites for businesses that need a professional online presence and a site that's easy to manage. I've delivered 90+ WordPress projects, and every build starts with one question: will this still be easy to edit in a year, not just look good on launch day. I'm Taras, a WordPress developer and WordPress expert with a BA & MA in Graphic Design - a WordPress expert who ensures web design decisions and development decisions get made by the same person, not handed off between two people who never talk. I specialize in Figma to WordPress conversion, WordPress Elementor builds, WordPress Gutenberg development, Divi, ACF, custom post types, PHP, and performance-focused WordPress website work that loads in under 2 seconds on a typical build. Unlike developers who only assemble pages, I understand both web design and web developer concerns at once - website design and technical build decisions happen together, not in separate silos. I can take a Figma file, a brand concept, or an AI-generated website idea and turn it into a pixel-accurate, responsive WordPress website with a structure your own team can actually maintain. What I can help you with ✦ Custom WordPress Website Design & Development Business sites, landing pages, marketing sites, blogs, and portfolios - every WordPress website design starts with real content structure, not a generic theme with new colors. 25+ custom themes built from scratch for clients needing what no page builder could match. ✦ Figma to WordPress Development Pixel-perfect, responsive conversion from Figma into a functional WordPress website, with 40+ Figma-to-WordPress builds delivered, with fidelity checked against the original file, not eyeballed. ✦ Elementor, Divi, Gutenberg & CMS Development As a WordPress expert in Elementor, WordPress Elementor, and Divi builds, I pick the right builder for the project instead of defaulting to one tool for everything - WordPress Elementor for marketing-heavy pages, WordPress Gutenberg for content-focused sites that don't need complex layouts, wordpress gutenberg the simpler choice for a fast, native editing experience. Cms development scope extends into full-stack, web developer territory when a project needs custom functionality beyond what any builder offers, and cms development decisions get documented so a future web developer isn't left guessing. ✦ ACF, Custom Post Types & Dynamic Content Advanced Custom Fields, WordPress ACF structures, and dynamic layouts let teams add listings or products without touching code - WordPress ACF is usually the difference between a site that scales and one needing a developer for every update. WordPress developer ACF work specifically means the field structure matches how your team thinks about content. 15+ real estate and marketing sites run on WordPress ACF content models built for their editorial workflow. ✦ WordPress Speed Optimization & Core Web Vitals Every WordPress developer engagement includes a performance pass - optimized images and caching that's dropped load times 40-60% on recent projects, moving Core Web Vitals from red to green. ✦ GSAP Animation & Interactive Web Design Scroll-based animations and motion design built with JavaScript and GSAP - the same GSAP toolkit used on Webflow and React sites, brought into WordPress without losing page speed. ✦ WordPress Redesign, Bug Fixes & Maintenance Layout fixes, plugin conflicts, migrations, and ongoing support across client sites, most resolved within a single business day. Tools & technologies WordPress, Elementor Pro, Bricks Builder, Gutenberg, WPBakery, Divi, ACF, PHP, JavaScript, GSAP, ScrollTrigger, Figma, HTML5, CSS3, plus AI-assisted workflows - WordPress Gutenberg and WordPress ACF both fit naturally here depending on the project. Why clients work with me ✔ 3+ years as a Top Rated WordPress developer and WordPress expert on Upwork ✔ 60+ WordPress projects delivered, with a graphic design background most developers don't have ✔ 50+ custom themes and 50+ Figma-to-WordPress builds, web design and web developer work handled by one person ✔ WordPress Elementor, Divi, Gutenberg WordPress, and WordPress developer ACF work across 15+ ACF-driven sites ✔ Cms development scope extending into custom functionality on 20+ projects needing more than a builder alone ✔ 100+ bug tickets resolved, most within a single business day, across startups, agencies, SaaS companies, and NGOs ✔ Clear communication and long-term support on every engagement, not just through launch week Whether you need a new website design project, a Figma to WordPress conversion, an AI concept rebuilt in WordPress, an elementor or divi build, WordPress developer acf work, or help from a web developer fixing an existing site, I can help you create a website that looks sharp, loads fast, and is genuinely easy for your team to manage - the kind of wordpress developer acf setup that still makes sense to whoever maintains it next.
