WordPress Site Redesign & Rebuilds
Some sites fight against you every time you use them. I take those sites and rebuild them properly, so they’re fast, stable and easy to work with.
You keep your content and your SEO rankings. You lose the plugins you never needed, and the dread of pressing publish or updating plugins.
Sound familiar?
- A page builder that fights you
- Updates you're scared to run
- Pages that take forever to load
- Simple changes that cost a fortune
- A site nobody fully understands any more
What I’ll do
- An audit to find out what's actually slow
- Refactor to a clean codebase
- Fewer plugins, not more
- An admin interface your content team can actually use
- Honest advice, before and after launch
What you end up with
- A site that loads quickly and ranks better
- Content you can edit without calling anyone
- New features without the drama
- A codebase any developer can pick up
If you’re searching for a knowledgeable and easy-to-work-with WordPress developer to bring your website vision to life, I highly recommend David!
Hiring a freelance developer can often feel like a gamble, but finding David was a fortunate stroke of luck for us. He completely overhauled our outdated corporate website, skillfully transforming wireframes and UX requirements into a slick, custom WordPress theme.
What truly stood out to us was his in-depth expertise, problem-solving skills, and responsiveness. He was always available to offer advice and support, making the entire process smooth, collaborative, and enjoyable.
The end result now reflects the modern and engaging presence we aimed to achieve. I’m very happy with the outcome and wholeheartedly recommend David to anyone looking to elevate their digital experience.
Custom WordPress Theme Development
A custom theme built for your business, shaped around your business requirements and how your team actually publishes.
I build on WordPress’s own editor (Gutenberg), so publishing feels native and nothing breaks when WordPress updates.
And yes, I use AI, carefully. It speeds up the repetitive parts. Everything it produces is checked and tested by me before it ships.
Why Gutenberg
- It's core WordPress, so it gets updated regularly
- Light and quick, with no extra layers
- Custom blocks where your business needs them
- An editor your team already knows
The problem with third-party page builders
They promise an easy website. Then the problems start.
- Mountains of generated code slowing everything down
- Admin screens nobody can find their way around
- Performance that drags your rankings down with it
- Maintenance that gets harder every year
- Quotes that get bigger every time
- A system you can't easily leave
David is the consummate professional. He has an incredible grasp of the digital world. The breadth of his knowledge usually requires at least three people!
Beyond that, he gets business, that makes a huge difference when building a website. He’s agile, flexible and dedicated to doing things the right way, future proofing the outcome.
