Key Questions on Strategic Web Development, Performance, and Security, Answered.

My current site is slow. Can you really get it to 90+ on PageSpeed?

Yes. Most developers stop at a caching plugin. I go deeper, performing code-level WPO, image optimization, and advanced server configurations (Nginx/LiteSpeed) to achieve elite scores.

Absolutely. This is my specialty. I convert your vision into a pixel-perfect, clean, and fast Elementor WordPress theme that is as elegant on the inside as it is on the outside.

Seamless. I can operate 100% under your brand with an NDA. I integrate directly into your PM tools (Asana, Slack, Trello), respect your deadlines, and act as your in-house technical department. See more

Yes, immediately. I specialize in emergency malware removal and site hardening. I’ll find the vulnerability, clean the site, get you off Google’s blacklist, and secure it against future attacks.

A high bounce rate is almost always a speed problem. If your page takes 6+ seconds to load, you’re burning ad spend. I optimize the entire funnel to ensure your pages load instantly, maximizing your ROAS.

Complete peace of mind. They include daily backups, plugin/theme/core updates, security monitoring, performance checks, and emergency support (like malware removal) to keep your asset safe and reliable. See more

I empower my clients. You will receive a custom, personalized Video Tutorial Library showing you exactly how to manage your new site, plus 4 weeks of post-launch support. You are never left alone.

I am a Strategic Architect, not just a “hired gun.” A cheaper developer delivers a “task.” I deliver a long-term business asset that is scalable, secure, and performance-optimized, saving you thousands in technical debt.

It means I don’t rely on 50+ bloated plugins to get the job done. I build custom solutions that are lightweight, fast, secure, and easy for any future developer to understand and maintain.
