WordPress powers a huge share of the web for one good reason: once it is set up properly, a non-technical person can run it. Publish a post, add a page, change a price, upload a brochure. The problem is that most WordPress sites are assembled from a purchased theme plus fifteen plugins, and within a year they are slow, insecure and terrified of updates.

I build WordPress differently. A lean custom theme written for your design, Advanced Custom Fields for structured editable content, and the smallest possible plugin list — each one justified. The editing experience stays simple, the site scores well on speed tests, and updating WordPress stops being something you avoid because you are afraid it will break the homepage.

Every build includes a staging site, so updates and new features get tested before they touch the live domain.

What is included

01

Custom theme development

A theme coded specifically for your design, with clean templates and no unused code from a marketplace purchase.

02

WooCommerce stores

Product catalogues, variations, Indian payment gateways, shipping rules, GST invoices and abandoned-cart recovery.

03

Speed optimisation

Caching, image conversion, database cleanup, script deferral and plugin pruning to fix a slow existing site.

04

Malware removal and hardening

Cleaning infected installations, closing the entry point, adding firewalls, 2FA and automated offsite backups.

05

Migration and redesign

Moving hosts or rebuilding an old site without losing content, URLs or the rankings you already have.

06

Multilingual and multisite

Hindi and English sites with WPML or Polylang, and multisite networks for groups with several brands.

Why it is worth doing properly

  • You publish content without a developer or a monthly retainer
  • A plugin list short enough to keep updated safely
  • Yoast or Rank Math configured properly, not just installed
  • Automated daily backups stored away from the web server

Technology used

Chosen to suit the project and your team, not to pad an invoice.

How it works

From first call to launch

The same seven steps on every project, so you always know what happens next.

01

Discovery call

A straight conversation about what the business does, what is not working and what success looks like. No slide deck. If I am not the right fit for the project, I will say so here rather than three weeks in.

45-60 minutes
02

Written scope and fixed quote

You get a document listing exactly what will be built, what is excluded, the timeline in milestones and a fixed price. Nothing starts until you have read it and agreed. The scope is yours to keep either way.

2-4 days
03

Design you can click

Wireframes first for structure, then visual design. For websites you approve a working page in the browser rather than a flat image, so what you sign off is genuinely what gets built.

1-2 weeks
04

Build in visible milestones

Development runs in two-week milestones on a staging URL you can open any time. You see progress as it happens instead of receiving a status report about work you cannot verify.

2-16 weeks
05

Testing and your review

Cross-browser and mobile testing, speed and security checks, and a review round where your team uses the system properly and lists what needs changing before launch.

3-7 days
06

Launch and handover

Deployment, analytics and Search Console setup, a walkthrough recording for your team, documentation, and full credentials handed over. You own everything, including the source code.

1-2 days
07

Support after launch

A warranty period covering any bugs at no charge, then an optional maintenance plan for updates, backups, monitoring and new features. No lock-in either way.

FAQ

WordPress — common questions

The questions that come up on almost every enquiry, answered honestly.

Is WordPress secure enough for a business website?
Yes, when it is maintained. Almost every WordPress hack traces back to an outdated plugin, a weak admin password or cheap shared hosting. I ship sites with a minimal plugin set, forced strong passwords, two-factor login, a firewall and automatic offsite backups, plus an optional monthly maintenance plan that keeps everything patched.
Should I use Elementor or a custom theme?
Elementor is genuinely useful if you want to build new landing pages yourself without any code. The trade-off is page weight and speed. For a marketing site where you will add pages weekly, Elementor is a fair choice. For a site where speed and rankings matter most, a custom theme with ACF wins comfortably.
Can you move my WordPress site to better hosting?
Yes, and it is one of the fastest wins available. I migrate the files and database, test everything on the new server before switching DNS, and keep the old host live until the change has propagated so there is no downtime.
My WordPress site is very slow — can it be fixed?
Usually, without a rebuild. Typical culprits are unoptimised images, too many plugins, no caching layer, a bloated theme and a bloated database. An audit gives you a prioritised list with the expected gain from each fix, then I implement it.
Can WordPress handle a large online store?
WooCommerce handles thousands of products and reasonable order volume well on properly specified hosting with object caching. Beyond that, or with complex B2B pricing rules, a custom Laravel platform is often the better long-term investment. I will be straight with you about where that line falls for your catalogue.
