Senior WordPress Developer | PHP, Custom Themes, Performance, Tech SEO

Senior WordPress developer who codes the build — and doesn't drag projects out or drop them halfway. Most of my clients stay with me for years — 70+ completed projects, 100% Job Success, 50+ reviews, 10+ years in web development, Top Rated Plus. What I do best Custom WordPress: themes and plugins written from scratch in PHP 8 with ACF and/or Gutenberg, plus WooCommerce and payment systems. Performance & technical SEO: on a recent build I took mobile PageSpeed from the 40s into the green through code, images, caching and server-side setup. Same pass covers structured data, sitemaps, and the technical side of search. Design to production: designs or product specs into responsive, cross-browser markup that matches the mockup — with scroll animations and micro-interactions where they earn their place. Page builders: most of my builder work is taking over and extending sites already on Elementor, Avada, WPBakery or GeneratePress. Fix what's broken, keep what works, don't rebuild from zero just to look busy. Headless WordPress: WP backend, React/Next.js/TypeScript front-end, REST API — for teams that want a modern stack without rebuilding the CMS. Where I've worked Product teams: a shared internal platform behind 100+ real-estate sites, SaaS products for PDF/video tools and a resume builder — 30+ templates built and maintained. An enterprise no-code app-builder platform used by law firms and consultancies worldwide. Freelance and recurring clients: owner-led businesses and agencies — most started as one-off builds and grew into ongoing relationships. Tell me what you're building. I'll tell you straight what it takes.
