Do you need to convert your design or prototype into a responsive website?
Get a custom WordPress website that looks exactly like your mockups, and is easy to edit.
Have you ever worked with website developers who over-promise and under-deliver?
You have a new website design ready to be developed. It looks amazing, exactly like you wanted to, and now you need a developer to convert it into a fully functional website.
If you have worked with developers in the past, you know that these projects can be easily compromised.
Maybe the final product didn’t look exactly like it was designed. Maybe the final website is slow, or isn’t as reliable as you wished.
Creating custom WordPress websites can be complex. It’s the kind of project where you want to work with a developer who has years of dedicated experience.
Over the years, I realized that being a good developer isn’t enough. It’s also necessary to implement a solid process to deliver a high quality website.
And this isn’t something that can be learned with development tutorials or in a coding bootcamp. It requires experience in the field, with real websites, in hundreds of different contexts.
If you’re looking for an experienced developer to bring your design into reality, this service is for you.
My mission is to create websites that can really give you a competitive advantage: they need to be easy to edit, fast, and reliable.
The perfect
WordPress website
I build websites with 7 core principles
The recipe for a perfect website requires specific ingredients. Here’s how I approach a web development project.
Result-Oriented
You’re building a website to pursue specific business goals. I do my best to make sure your project will bring a positive ROI.
Easy to Edit
The website must be easy to edit, even for users without technical knowledge. When I build new features and templates, I always keep this principle in mind.
Attention to detail
The website must look exactly like it looks in the mockups. It’s not just work; it’s a personal challenge.
Mobile Responsive
Your site will automatically resize to fit the screen perfectly, across all devices and browsers.
Focus on performance
I use the least amount of plugins possible, so your page load speed will not be compromised. I don’t take shortcuts that could ruin the performance of your site.
Plan before implementation
Many WordPress devs will look at your design, give you a price, and then just start development. This is the recipe for disaster. Planning is needed to reduce risk and avoid “surprises” during the project.
No developer or agency dependencies
A good website doesn’t “trap” you with a developer for eternity. I don’t use any obscure proprietary tools or plugins that will force you to pay me a maintenance plan.
The WordPress Advisor Process
The full process to deliver you a perfect website
Contact
To start, you will share your design in Figma or AdobeXD or other similar software. We can do one free consultation, and once I have enough information, I will share a proposal with you.
Discovery
If the project is complex, I’ll create a Google doc with a detailed plan. I may also test different solutions before developing the new website. This step will be included in the price and will help reduce risk.
Development
I will create a staging environment, and in one to two weeks from project start I will share with you the first demo of your new website. Usually this includes the homepage and one internal page.
Training
When the website is complete, if your project includes new custom features, I will create some guides (in video or PDF format) that will show you how you can manage your website without relying on a developer.
Migration
When the website has been tested across all the necessary browsers and devices, after your approval, we will migrate it to production.
Bring your next website to life
Every project is unique. However, here are some guidelines and my minimum level of engagement.
I always include a 6-months warranty, regardless of price. Should there be any errors or bugs discovered in my work, I will resolve them at no extra cost for a period of six months following the deployment to production.
This warranty is specific to the work I have completed on the website and does not extend to issues arising from additional software installations, improper use, or alterations to the code by others.

Consultation • Custom Theme Development
The SlotsFan.com project involved transforming a Figma prototype into a high-performance, SEO-optimized WordPress site that was easy for the client to manage. The initial step was an in-depth consultation, reviewing the designs to streamline the development process. This phase played a key role in aligning the project with the client’s vision, smartly allocating resources to maximize budget value.
The creation of a custom GeneratePress theme enhanced both user experience and site performance. To address the client’s priority for simplicity in content management, I focused on delivering a website that ensures ease of editing for their team. Additionally, we fortified the website with advanced security measures to ensure a robust and trustworthy online presence.
