Top Rated WordPress & PHP Dev | Malware Removal | Migrations
Site hacked, down, or stuck on an old PHP version? I fix it, and I tell you what caused it so it doesn't happen again. I'm Isuru, a 𝗧𝗼𝗽 𝗥𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱 WordPress & PHP developer with 𝟭𝟱+ 𝘆𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘀 of experience (I started with PHP 4), 𝟮𝟱𝟬+ 𝗨𝗽𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸 𝗷𝗼𝗯𝘀 and $𝟭𝟬𝟬𝗞+ 𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗻𝗲𝗱. Some of my clients have worked with me 𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝟮𝟬𝟭𝟲. 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗜 𝗱𝗼 𝗯𝗲𝘀𝘁 🛡️ 𝗠𝗮𝗹𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝗺𝗼𝘃𝗮𝗹 & 𝘀𝗲𝗰𝘂𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗱𝗲𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 Hacked sites cleaned (files + database), backdoors and rogue admins removed, the entry point found and closed. Firewall, backups and monitoring set up afterwards. Every cleanup comes with a 𝗙𝗥𝗘𝗘 𝟯-𝗺𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗵 𝗺𝗮𝗹𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘁𝘆: if it comes back, I clean it again at no cost. ⚙️ 𝗣𝗛𝗣 𝘂𝗽𝗴𝗿𝗮𝗱𝗲𝘀 & 𝗹𝗲𝗴𝗮𝗰𝘆 𝗰𝗼𝗱𝗲 PHP 7.x → 8.3/8.4 for WordPress and custom PHP apps, tested on a staging copy first. I fix the deprecated code instead of just switching the version, and keep a rollback ready. 🚚 𝗛𝗼𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗺𝗶𝗴𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝘇𝗲𝗿𝗼 𝗱𝗼𝘄𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲 cPanel, VPS, AWS, SiteGround, Namecheap, and Australian hosts like Crazy Domains and Digital Pacific. Every site is tested before DNS is switched, and email keeps working. Largest so far: 25 WordPress and PHP sites moved to AWS. 🧩 𝗖𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗺 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗱𝗣𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀 & 𝗪𝗼𝗼𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗺𝗲𝗿𝗰𝗲 𝗽𝗹𝘂𝗴𝗶𝗻𝘀 Built for your exact workflow: API integrations (CRMs, Podio, Meta, Google Merchant Center, warehouse systems), custom checkout and subscription logic, and clean code that survives updates. 💳 𝗣𝗮𝘆𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗴𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘄𝗮𝘆𝘀 Stripe, PayPal, Authorize.Net and hosted / PCI-proxy payment pages, with proper validation and error handling. 📧 𝗘𝗺𝗮𝗶𝗹𝘀 𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝗻 𝘀𝗽𝗮𝗺 SPF, DKIM and DMARC set up correctly, plus a reliable sender like Brevo when shared-hosting IPs are blacklisted. 𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗜 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸 ✅ I look at your actual problem first and reply with a clear plan, usually within a few hours ✅ Backup before every change, staging before live ✅ Daily progress updates and a short written summary at the end ✅ I do all the work myself, no outsourcing ✅ Support after the job is done Available 8:00 AM – 10:30 PM IST (UTC+5:30), which overlaps well with Australia, Asia and the UK, and with US mornings and evenings. "Isuru is great, he's my go-to guy when I have a problem!" (client review) Tell me what's going on with your site, and I'll tell you what I think is causing it.
