A website you’ll never have to worry about.

Your Norwich based WordPress expert of 20+ years.

Agency-quality work, without the agency price tag.

Straight answers, a price up front, and someone who’s still around in five years.

In plain English

You want a website that looks the part, works properly and brings in business, without having to become a tech expert to keep it running.

That’s my job. I design it, build it and look after it, so you can stop thinking about it.

43%
of the entire web runs on WordPress

Not sure what WordPress is? That’s OK, that’s exactly what I’m here for. It runs more of the web than anything else, and I’ve worked with it for over 20 years.

Trusted by businesses across Norfolk, the UK and beyond since 2005.

Also available

Hacked, broken or painfully slow? Send me the address and I’ll tell you plainly what’s wrong and what it’ll take to fix. Most sites are back on their feet fast, often the same day.

See how a rescue works

Stuck with Elementor, Divi, Bricks or blocks? I spent three years working with the Elementor team, so I can fix, tidy or extend what you’ve got without starting again.

See page builder support

I’ve built and shipped real AI features, so I’ll tell you honestly where it would help your business and where it wouldn’t. If it’s worth adding, I’ll build it properly.

How I use AI

When nothing off the shelf does what you need, I’ll build the plugin that does. I’ve made them for single sites, WooCommerce shops and the WordPress.org directory.

Why me

You deal with me, start to finish.

Big agencies come with big overheads, and it all lands on your invoice. I don’t have any of that. It’s just me: 20+ years, hundreds of websites, and your project on my desk, never handed down to a junior.

You’ll get a straight answer on price in the first reply. If the budget and the brief don’t line up, I’d rather say so on day one than let us both find out three weeks in.

Email is the quickest way to reach me, and I keep an eye on it seven days a week, though the work itself keeps to Monday to Friday. If you’d rather talk something through, we can meet up locally or jump on a call.

Whichever it is, you’re talking to the person actually doing the work. You’ll never explain your business twice, and there’s nobody to be handed over to.

Hosting & care

I look after everything, so you don’t have to.

Every website needs regular care to stay secure, fast and reliable, a bit like a car needs servicing. I handle all of that in the background, so your site keeps doing its job while you get on with yours.

AI, where it actually helps.

The tools are new. What’s underneath them isn’t.

Something genuinely new is happening, and I don’t say that lightly. I’ve been building for the web for over 20 years, and I’ve never seen a shift like this one.

It’s already part of how I work. AI reviews my code, finds bugs in minutes that used to cost me hours, and takes the repetitive jobs off my desk.

The bigger opportunity is yours. Whatever quietly eats your time, answering the same questions, chasing information, copying data between systems, there is usually something that can be built to take it on. Not an off-the-shelf chatbot, but something made for the way your business actually works.

One thing hasn’t changed. AI will get you something that looks finished remarkably quickly, and that is genuinely useful when creating prototypes. But looking finished and being sound aren’t the same thing. Whatever gets built still has to be secure, still has to be maintained, and still has to look like your business rather than like everyone else’s. Knowing the difference is where I come in.

In their words.

Local at heart, and further afield.

I’m based in Norwich and love working with Norfolk-based businesses. But good work travels: I’ve built sites for companies across the UK and abroad, spent years working directly for Elementor, whose HQ is in Tel Aviv, and I still contract for an agency in Colorado.
