Custom WordPress Developer | Themes, Plugins, WooCommerce & APIs
When a ready-made theme or plugin can't do what your business needs, I build it. I specialize in custom WordPress development: custom themes, custom plugins, complex WooCommerce logic and integrations with the tools you already use. $60K+ earned and 81 jobs completed on Upwork. I also run Spiderhunts Technologies, a UK-registered development agency founded in 2020, so larger builds get the backing of a full development team while you keep one point of contact: me. What I build: - Custom WordPress themes coded from scratch, fast and free of page-builder bloat - Custom plugins for features no existing plugin handles properly - WooCommerce customization: custom checkout flows, pricing rules, product configurators, subscriptions and payment gateway integrations - Custom post types, fields, user roles, dashboards and member areas - API integrations: CRMs, ERPs, booking systems, payment providers and third-party data feeds - Custom Gutenberg blocks and Elementor widgets so your team can edit content easily - Fixing and extending existing custom code that other developers left behind - Performance work on complex sites: database queries, caching and Core Web Vitals How I work: - I start by understanding the business problem, then propose the simplest solution that will last - You get a clear scope, timeline and price before work starts - Clean, documented code that follows WordPress standards, so any developer can maintain it later - Regular updates and a chance to review everything before it goes live Tech: WordPress, PHP, MySQL, JavaScript, React, REST API, WooCommerce, ACF, Gutenberg, Git I also build AI chatbots and workflow automations (n8n, GoHighLevel) that connect WordPress to your CRM, email and booking tools. If your project needs more than installing a theme, send me the details and I'll reply with how I'd build it.
