I build and look afterthe websites and appsbusinesses run on.

For the last couple of years I've been building and looking after the WordPress sites, web platforms and apps businesses depend on — keeping them fast and secure, and turning half-formed ideas into things customers actually use.

Most businesses don't need another developer who disappears after launch. They need someone who understands what the site is for, answers when something breaks, and keeps making it a little better every month. That's the job I've been doing — and the one I care about doing well.

Four kinds of work, one way of doing it.

How I can help →

Over 40% of the web runs on WordPress. So does most of my work.

If your site is built on WordPress, I already know my way around it — whether it needs building from scratch, rescuing, speeding up or simply looking after.

Talk about your WordPress site
  • 01

    New WordPress sites

    Designed around your business, not a theme demo.

  • 02

    Custom themes & plugins

    When off-the-shelf doesn't quite fit.

  • 03

    WooCommerce stores

    Products, checkout, payments and shipping that just work.

  • 04

    Courses & memberships

    Learning platforms and member-only areas.

  • 05

    Speed fixes

    Slow pages found, fixed and kept fast.

  • 06

    Security setup

    Sensible protection from day one: logins, backups and safe updates.

  • 07

    Moves & migrations

    New host, new domain or onto WordPress — without losing anything.

  • 08

    Fixing what broke

    That plugin update that took the site down. Sorted.

Listen first. Build it right. Ship it. Then keep it running.

Real businesses, real users. Details kept private where they need to be.

    Subscription store migration for a nonprofit publisher

    A literary nonprofit split one old WordPress site into two — one for the organisation, one for its publishing press. I moved the press's subscription store — 3,430 customers, their full order history, 547 subscriptions, gift subscriptions and memberships — without losing a record or charging anyone by mistake.

A note from me
I've just started taking on freelance work of my own, separate from my full-time role. The work I show here is real, but the clients I've worked with through my job aren't mine to quote. So this space is waiting for my first freelance clients, in their words.
