Mariana K.
WordPress Web Designer and Developer | Conversion-Focused Websites
Need a website that looks great AND actually brings in clients - built by one person who owns the whole thing? Most websites get passed between a designer, a developer and an SEO person - and something gets lost at every handoff. I cover the full cycle myself: UX strategy, design, WordPress development and on-page SEO. One accountable person, from first wireframe to launch and beyond. 💡 About me UX/UI Designer & WordPress Developer with ~20 years in the field and 1,000+ WordPress sites built. On Upwork: 290+ jobs, 99% Job Success, Top Rated. I work with direct business clients and as a white-label technical partner for agencies in Australia, the US, Canada, Germany, Belgium and Mauritius — so I’m used to agency-grade quality bars. One recent brand site, built to a brandbook from a leading Australian agency, was approved with zero revisions. Many of my clients have stayed with me for years; the longest relationship is 15+ years and counting. ⚙️ What I do ✅ End-to-end websites: UX → design → WordPress build → on-page SEO ✅ Elementor Pro (advanced) and custom theme development ✅ Redesigns and rescues of sites left in bad shape by previous developers ✅ Speed/performance optimization and SEO-friendly structure ✅ ACF, custom post types, taxonomies, template libraries, dynamic content ✅ Custom AI-powered WordPress plugins 🚀 What you get beyond the site A custom training video so your team can manage content with confidence Clear, honest communication — I’ll tell you if a website won’t solve your problem, even if it costs me the project Long-term support if you want it — most of my clients do 🧰 Tools WordPress • Elementor Pro • ACF • HTML5/CSS3 • JavaScript/jQuery • Figma • Photoshop • WooCommerce • WPML 💬 “After working with Mariana, I stopped looking for other web designers and always just hire her.” — Upwork client Send me a link to your current site or a short brief, and I’ll tell you honestly what I’d do with it.
