What I can help with

Every project gets direct access to me. No account managers, no junior handoffs, no agency layers.

Custom development

Custom themes, plugins, integrations, and migrations built to your exact specifications. No templates, no shortcuts.

  • Custom theme and plugin development
  • Third-party API integrations
  • WooCommerce customization
  • Site migrations and rebuilds

Performance optimization

Slow sites lose visitors and rankings. I'll find what's actually holding your site back and fix it properly.

  • Core Web Vitals audit and fixes
  • Caching and CDN strategy
  • Database and query optimization
  • Image, CSS, and JavaScript optimization

Security hardening

Proactive security is always cheaper than cleanup. I'll lock down your site before problems start.

  • Security audits and vulnerability assessment
  • Malware cleanup and recovery
  • Firewall configuration and hardening
  • SSL, headers, and authentication setup

Ongoing maintenance

WordPress sites need regular attention. I'll keep yours updated, secure, and running smoothly month after month.

  • WordPress core, theme, and plugin updates
  • Security monitoring and incident response
  • Monthly performance checks
  • Priority support and quick fixes

Why work with me

I'm not an agency. There's no sales team, no project managers, no junior developers learning on your dime. When you hire SRWorks, you work directly with me.

I've been building WordPress sites since the early 2000s. I created two of the original themes that shipped with WordPress default installs. I've run agencies, managed hundreds of client sites, and built the plugins I sell here from real problems I've seen over and over.

That experience means fewer surprises, faster turnaround, and solutions that actually hold up. You get senior-level work without the agency markup.

Founder ยท Bend, Oregon

After 20+ years of building WordPress sites for clients and running agencies, I started SRWorks to do two things: build the plugins I always wished existed, and offer the kind of focused, expert-level development work that's hard to find at agencies.

Every project I take on gets the same attention I give my own products. I don't take on more work than I can handle, and I don't hand things off to someone else.

How it works

Simple process, no surprises. You'll know exactly what to expect before any work begins.

When you hire me for any service engagement, you get free access to all three SRWorks plugins for your site. No separate license purchase needed.

Frequently asked questions

I take on custom WordPress development, performance optimization, security hardening, and ongoing maintenance. Every project is scoped individually. Whether it's a new build, a migration, or fixing a site that's falling apart, I'll tell you upfront if it's a good fit.
It depends on the scope. I provide a fixed-price proposal after an initial conversation so there are no surprises. Small projects like performance audits or security reviews start in the low hundreds. Larger custom development work is scoped and quoted individually.
Yes. Every service client gets free access to the full SRWorks plugin suite (ArmorPro, CitedPro, and BoostPro) for their site, included with any engagement. No separate license purchase needed.
Performance audits and security reviews typically take 1 to 2 weeks. Custom development projects vary based on complexity, but most land in the 2 to 6 week range. I'll give you a realistic timeline in the proposal before any work starts.
Yes. I offer monthly maintenance plans that cover updates, security monitoring, performance checks, and priority support. It's the same hands-on attention your site gets during a project, just on an ongoing basis.
