I move Zen Cart stores to PHP 8 without breaking checkout, and I help small online stores grow on their own numbers instead of guesswork. ZEN CART AND PHP 8 Zen Cart 1.5 on PHP 7 has to move to 2.x on PHP 8, and most of what breaks is invisible until a customer hits it at checkout. I just led a 160,000-product distributor through Zen Cart 2.2.2 on PHP 8.3: rehearsal runs on a copy of the store, a smoke test that exercises the whole order path, and a rollback runbook so cutover day was boring. Fixed price, tested before cutover, and you keep the runbook. GROWTH ON YOUR OWN DATA For stores that are already live, I run a growth engine: Google Search Console and your traffic data decide which blog posts get written, which customers get which email, and which pages on the site change, every month, with a one-page report you can read in five minutes. It runs on WordPress and Mautic. On that same distributor it cut Google Ads spend by 85 percent with sales held and brought order cancellations from the mid-30s down to 21 percent. WHY ONE PERSON The marketing side and the code side are the same person, so nothing falls between an agency and a developer. Twenty years on PHP and MySQL ecommerce backends, Linux servers I run myself, and an automated monitor watching every site I touch. WHAT I TAKE ON HERE - Zen Cart 1.5 to 2.x on PHP 8 migrations, fixed price with a rollback runbook - Zen Cart and WooCommerce custom modules, payment and shipping integrations, reports - Mautic email automation: segments, lifecycle and seasonal sequences, A/B tests - Search Console driven SEO at catalog scale: title tags, descriptions, content gaps - WordPress sites for product and service businesses Send me your store URL and what is worrying you. I will tell you straight whether it is a one-hour fix or a project.
