Sound Familiar?

Local London agencies charging ยฃ150/hr for junior developers
London agency rates mean you pay senior prices for work done by juniors. The partner sells, the graduate builds.
WooCommerce site not set up for UK market
Missing Stripe UK, SagePay/Opayo, or Klarna integration. No VAT configuration. No UK shipping zones. Your store can't serve British customers properly.
GDPR compliance ignored by your last developer
Cookie consent not properly implemented. Analytics firing before consent. Data processing agreements missing. Real ICO risk.
Headless or API-driven requirements not met
Your team wants WordPress as a headless CMS powering a React/Next.js frontend โ€” but most WordPress freelancers can't deliver this.
Agency white-label partner went under or ghosted
Your previous offshore partner disappeared, missed deadlines, or delivered buggy code that damaged your client relationship.
WordPress performance failing Core Web Vitals
Google's Page Experience signals are now ranking factors. A failing Core Web Vitals score is costing you organic traffic.

Here's How I Fix It

I'm a WordPress expert with 15 years of experience, available during UK business hours, who delivers the quality London clients expect. Whether you need a full build, a white-label partner, or headless WordPress architecture โ€” I've done it and can do it for you.

From Brief to Launch

01

Requirements & Discovery

Video call in UK business hours to scope your project. I ask about your tech stack, brand guidelines, integrations, and business KPIs โ€” not just the page count.

02

Technical Proposal

Written proposal with architecture decisions, third-party dependencies, timeline, and fixed GBP pricing. No vague "we'll see how it goes" hour estimates.

03

Design Sign-off

If you have an existing design team or agency, I work from their Figma/XD files. No design? I can recommend trusted London-based designers to collaborate with.

04

Agile Development

Fortnightly sprint reviews on a staging environment. I use GitHub for version control and can integrate with your Jira, Linear, or Notion workflow.

05

Testing, Security & Launch

Cross-browser testing, WCAG audit, GDPR checklist, Core Web Vitals benchmark, and security scan before going live on your hosting environment.

06

Handover & Documentation

Full README, inline code comments, WP admin training for your team, and complete IP transfer. Ongoing retainer available on a rolling monthly basis.

The Safer, Better Decision.

Not every developer will tell you when an approach doesn't make sense. I will.

Questions About
WordPress Developer in London

Ask a Question
