Starting from
$600
Typical timeframe: 1–2 weeks
- Fixed price, agreed up front
- Pay in instalments
- Progress in your client portal
- Free support after launch
Who it's for
- Service businesses that want a site their team can update without a developer
- Agencies that need a reliable WordPress developer for client builds
- Owners replacing a slow or dated site
Problems it solves
- A site that's slow, hard to edit or looks dated
- Plugin bloat and security worries
- Pages that aren't set up for search engines
A website built around your business, not a template stretched to fit. I design and build custom WordPress sites, from a sharp five-page brochure site to a large content site with custom post types, members areas and multilingual pages, using clean themes or Elementor Pro where it suits your team.
Speed and security are built in from the start: optimised images and caching, a lean set of plugins, good Core Web Vitals scores, SSL, backups and sensible hardening. On-page SEO basics, schema and analytics are set up before launch, so the site is ready to be found.
You get an admin area your team can actually use, with the pages and content blocks you edit most made simple, plus a walkthrough at handover so you can update the site without calling a developer.

A bilingual WordPress site for FM Fahrschule Mannhard in Zürich

Read the case study“Outstanding work. Shahid fixed and stabilised our API importer, and the improvement was clear immediately. Products are now importing smoothly, the plugin is more reliable, and he even improved the plugin interface, making it cleaner and easier to understand. Great communication, professional approach, and very careful with staging, backups and testing. Highly recommended. 5 stars.”
After launch
Free support after launch is included. How long it lasts is agreed in the proposal, typically from one month up to six months, depending on the size of the project. After that you can move to a monthly care plan or ask for changes as you need them.
