I build and look after websites and web applications for businesses and charities. That ranges from custom-coded applications to WordPress sites, along with the ongoing work of keeping them fast, secure, and easy to find. A lot of what I do is long-term: I stay on as the developer a business calls whenever something needs doing.
Available for new projects, ongoing retainers, and one-off fixes. Get in touch to talk through what you need.
Custom builds coded from scratch using modern frameworks like Next.js, SvelteKit, and React. This is the right approach when a template won't do: a web application with user accounts and payments, a custom content system, or a fast, lean site built exactly around how your business works.
A large part of my work is WordPress, built properly and to a high standard. Structured content with Advanced Custom Fields, WooCommerce shops, learning platforms, custom post types, and bespoke themes. If you already run WordPress, I can extend it, tidy it up, or take over its ongoing development.
Divi and page-builder sites for organisations that want to edit their own content without touching code. I build these cleanly, with custom modules and global styles where they help, so the site stays fast and consistent instead of turning into a mess over time.
Moving a live site to new hosting or a new platform without losing data, links, or search rankings. I have migrated WooCommerce stores with years of order history and full course platforms intact. Every migration is planned in advance, tested, and reversible, so nothing important goes missing.
Slow sites lose visitors and search rankings. I work out what is actually causing the slowdown, whether that is caching, image sizes, database bloat, or the hosting itself, and fix it. I have taken large, image-heavy, multilingual sites to a full 100/100 on Core Web Vitals, measured on mobile and on real pages.
Ongoing care so your site stays secure and current. Core, plugin, and theme updates applied and tested, active monitoring, backups, hardening, and two-factor login. Any site with traffic attracts automated attacks, so the aim is to stay ahead of them quietly, without you having to think about it.
Technical SEO that helps the right people find you on Google: schema markup, site structure, redirects, page speed, and the quiet issues that hold a site back. I work from Search Console and analytics data rather than guesswork, and focus on the changes that actually move rankings.
More and more people ask ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini instead of searching Google. AEO is the work of making sure those tools can find your site, understand it, and name you in their answers. That means clear, well-structured content and machine-readable information about who you are and what you do, so when someone asks a question in your field, yours is the site that gets mentioned.
Google and AI tools both weigh up whether to trust a source before they recommend it. E-E-A-T stands for Experience, Expertise, Authoritativeness, and Trust: the qualities they look for. I make yours clear and verifiable, with named authors tied to real credentials, organisation and author data that machines can read, and content that shows genuine first-hand expertise. It is what makes the SEO and AEO work hold up.
Most of my work is ongoing rather than one-off. I tend to become the developer a business works with over time, which means I get to know how it actually operates and can make better calls because of it. If you want someone reliable to hand the technical side to, rather than a single job and goodbye, that is the kind of work I am set up for.
