Tom Herudek
Full-Stack Developer
17 years of WordPress, and WooCommerce since the day it launched: performance, migrations, checkout, and payments. 528 projects here across 106 clients, which means the average client came back four more times. That's the number I'd check if I were hiring.

Customizations, Migrations, Troubleshooting and Fixes
🌐 https://tomherudek.com/ 🎯 WHAT I ACTUALLY DO ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Most of my work is WooCommerce. Usually one of these: ✅ Stores that got slow - finding the real reason ✅ Migrations and host moves without downtime or dropping a single order ✅ Checkout, payments, renewals: where a customer tries to give you money, and your store says no ✅ Stores that outgrew their setup: database, hosting, HPOS ✅ Custom development when off-the-shelf runs out 🌐 https://tomherudek.com/my-work/woocommerce/ 🔧 BEYOND THE STORE ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Not every job is a WooCoommerce. I take plain WordPress work too: performance, hosting and server moves, security clean-ups, and the routine that prevents the panic 3am call. I also build AI agents, hands-on and daily. Not chatbots or demos: automations that absorb repetitive work and run unattended. Support triage, moving data between systems that never talked, the Friday reporting nobody wants. I map the process first, then automate only what should be. 🌐 https://tomherudek.com/my-work/ai-agents/ 🏗️ WHY I SOLVE IT PRETTY FAST ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ After 528 projects, most store problems are a version of something I've fixed before. I also run a platform serving hundreds of WordPress sites, so I've watched things break at volumes most stores never reach. I measure first, and I'll give you the unwelcome answer over the comfortable one. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 📕At the end, I'll give you a report: what was wrong, what I did, why. 📩 Two or three sentences about your store is enough. I'll tell you honestly if I'm the right person.

It was an excellent experience working with Tom. He did an thorough job examining existing code and isolating the root cause of our issue quickly. His post-mortem videos were useful in helping us understand exactly what was fixed and provided an added layer of transparency to the work he performed. Thanks, Tom!

Impeccable service from start to finish. Understands business which most developers don't and gives honest and fair feedback and value. Couldn't recommend enough.

Tom is incredible to work with. His promptness, clarity, and daily progress gave me full confidence that he would be able to solve my problem. He asked multiple clarifying questions when he didn't understand my use case. This lead to a solution that was actually what I needed rather than what he may have assumed if he didn't ask for more details. Additionally, our work days only overlapped by ~2 hours because of time zone differences. Every morning when I woke up, I saw a message from Tom about his progress on the last day or a question that he had. We were able to clarify it while we were both working. Then I would awake the next morning to more progress. Absolutely wonderful experience with Tom from start to finish. I highly recommend him and he will be the first one I look to if I need help in the future.
