What You're Dealing With
Plugin Conflicts & Bloat
Every update breaks something. Page builders pile on 30+ scripts. Your site gets slower every month.
Developer Roulette
Your project gets passed between junior devs. Each one re-learns your codebase, adding time and inconsistency.
Broken Updates
WordPress core updates arrive and nobody tests them. Your theme breaks. Your forms stop working. Nobody notices until a customer does.
Accumulated Shortcuts
Quick fixes on top of quick fixes. The site works 'for now' but every change gets harder and more expensive.
What I Deliver
Clean, Lightweight Architecture
Custom-built themes with only the code your site needs. No page builder bloat, no plugin dependency chains.
One Developer, Start to Finish
I personally handle every line of code. No handoffs, no re-learning, no surprises mid-project.
Tested Updates & Staging
Every update is tested on a staging site before it touches production. Core, themes, plugins — nothing goes live untested.
Built for the Long Term
Clean architecture, documented code, and no shortcuts. Your site scales and changes without expensive rewrites.
What I Deliver
Clear deliverables, no surprises.
Custom Themes
Pixel-perfect, responsive themes built from scratch. No page builders, no generic starter themes — just clean code tailored to your design and performance requirements. Every theme I build is optimized for Core Web Vitals out of the box.
Plugin Development
Custom WordPress plugins for functionality that off-the-shelf plugins can't deliver. I build to WordPress coding standards with proper hooks, settings pages, and documentation so future developers can maintain them.
Migrations & Upgrades
Safe migrations from any platform to WordPress, or upgrades from legacy themes to modern block-based architecture. Full data preservation, redirect mapping, and zero-downtime cutover.
Performance Optimization
Core Web Vitals audits, caching strategies, database tuning, image optimization, and CDN configuration. I've taken sites from 8-second loads to sub-2-second.
How I Work
How We Work Together
Discovery
You tell me what you need — goals, audience, content, and any existing site issues.
Architecture & Quote
I review requirements, propose a technical approach, and deliver a detailed scope with timeline and pricing.
Build & Review
I build on staging with regular demos. You see progress at every stage, and we fix everything before it goes live.
Launch & Handoff
Zero-downtime deployment, DNS cutover, SSL configuration, and a walkthrough so you know how to manage your site.
Reviews
What Clients Say
Real reviews from Upwork and Trustpilot
“Hired Adrian on a tight deadline and he handled it like a pro. I gave him a punch list and he knocked it out item by item, acknowledging each task and communicating every delivery along the way. That kind of transparency is rare and honestly made the whole process stress-free. He covered everything, WordPress, Elementor, custom code, bug fixes, and the work came out clean and polished. Knows his stuff, doesn't overcomplicate things, and you never have to chase him down for updates. Would 100% work with him again.”
“Adrian KICK-ASS. Very competent and hard worker”
“Always reliable, professional and great communication skills.”
“Adrian is highly recommended as he works hard and delivers. His credo quality above speed, was one of the most important factors for hiring him. I would hire him again. (and he is a really nice guy!)”
“Adrian has been very accommodating. When hiccups came up Adrian took the trouble to look into it and settled them. I would recommend him for your jobs.”
“He is the best.”
Frequently Asked Questions
Typical projects take 4-8 weeks depending on complexity. Simple sites can be faster; complex builds with custom plugins may take longer. I'll give you a specific timeline in the quote.
