Full Website Builds, Migrations, Troubleshooting and Fixes
WHAT I CAN DO FOR YOU I help businesses build, fix, and improve WordPress websites with a focus on clean code, ease of use, and long-term maintainability. I specialize in converting designs into fully custom WordPress themes, but also help with troubleshooting, content updates, and ongoing site management. HOW I WORK While I primarily work on my own, I also collaborate with a trusted professional designer when a project requires a logo, branding or visual design from scratch. You’ll always work directly with me as your developer and main point of contact. COMMON SERVICES I PROVIDE ➤ Custom WordPress Website Development I build complete WordPress websites tailored to your goals — whether converting an existing site, implementing supplied designs, or collaborating with my design partner to create a professional design from scratch. Every site is mobile-responsive, SEO-friendly, optimized for performance, and built for long-term maintainability. ➤ Ongoing Maintenance & Support You can do anything — but not everything. Let me handle your website updates, monitoring, fixes, and content changes so you can focus on your business. Regular maintenance is key to performance, stability, and security. ➤ Site Migration / Hosting Transfer Moving hosts? Redesigning? Rebuilding? I’ve migrated countless sites safely and can recommend solid hosting solutions based on your needs. ➤ Website Audits Inherited a site? Haven’t updated in years? Unsure how it was built? A detailed audit provides clarity, direction, and peace of mind. ➤ Emergency Recovery Services Site down, locked out, errors, or malware? I'll diagnose the issue, restore access, and get your site back online quickly — plus help prevent future problems. ➤ 1-on-1 Consultations Not sure where to start? I offer live video sessions for project planning and WordPress training. ---- 𝗡𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝗵𝗲𝗹𝗽 with your WordPress site?

Working with Keryn is easy. Her communication skills are exceptional. The first issue on my list was fixed in a matter of seconds. We ranged over many issues and came up with a list of things for me to do and also another list of things for me to get Keryn or others to deal with over the coming weeks. Many thanks for a productive exploration of the project — to be continued.

She keeps you updated along the way and ask the appropriate questions to get necessary feed back, and she really knows her work. Furthermore, she's honest and tries to do the best job possible which means I get a great product in the end. Thanks Keryn for fixing up my site!
