09  /  FAQ

Questions clients ask before hiring.

Straight answers for businesses and agencies looking for a freelance web designer and custom WordPress developer, wherever they are based.

Do you work with international clients?

Yes. I work remotely with businesses and agencies worldwide, from the first conversation through launch and ongoing support.

Projects run over email, WhatsApp and video calls, with a written scope, staging previews and regular updates scheduled around your time zone. I have spent several years delivering WordPress work for UK-based agency teams, and you can hire me directly or through Fiverr and Upwork.

How do you make sure custom WordPress sites are fast?

I build lean from the start: clean page structure, optimized assets and no bloated templates, so speed is designed in rather than patched on later.

Each page loads only the fonts, scripts and images it actually uses, images are sized and compressed, and caching and a CDN are set up properly. I measure with Google PageSpeed Insights against Google’s Core Web Vitals targets for a “good” experience:

  • Largest Contentful Paint (main content visible): 2.5 seconds or less
  • Interaction to Next Paint (response to taps and clicks): 200 milliseconds or less
  • Cumulative Layout Shift (visual stability): 0.1 or less

Google assesses these at the 75th percentile of real visits, so the goal is a site that feels fast for most visitors, not just in a lab test.

What is the advantage of a custom Elementor or Divi build over a pre-made theme?

A custom build is designed around your content, brand and goals, and it loads only what your site needs.

Pre-made multipurpose themes usually ship with demo layouts, sliders and bundled plugins for features you will never use, which adds weight and makes editing confusing. A custom Elementor or Divi build gives you a distinctive design, faster pages and a clean editing setup your team can update without breaking the layout.

Can you fix or speed up my existing WordPress site?

Yes. I regularly take over existing WordPress sites to fix layout problems, broken features and slow performance.

I start by measuring what is actually causing the problem, then fix it in order of impact, so you can see the improvement in the numbers. Your content and design stay as they are unless we agree to change them.

Do you build WooCommerce stores?

Yes. I set up complete WooCommerce stores, from products and payments to shipping and launch.

That includes product variations, payment gateways, shipping rules, memberships and subscriptions, and multilingual or multicurrency setups. Every store is tested end to end before launch, so orders, emails and payments work from day one.

How does a project with you start?

Send me your website link or a short brief, and I will reply with questions and next steps; the scope and price are agreed before any development begins.

New websites get a fixed scope and quote, staging previews for your feedback, and source files with a walkthrough at handover. Ongoing support and agency work are agreed per month or per project.
