Web development where near-perfect is the baseline.

Whichever the site's job demands. WordPress — classic or headless — when your team publishes constantly and needs full editing control. Next.js when performance, product features, or tight design control lead. I build both, so the recommendation follows the requirements, not the toolbox.

Whichever your team will actually use. The native block editor is leaner and ages better with WordPress core; Elementor wins when your marketers already live in it or the design needs its layout control. Built on a performance budget, either holds up — I've shipped Elementor with zero blocking time and zero layout shift.

Your editors keep the WordPress admin they know, but the public site is served by a Next.js front end instead of a PHP theme. You need it when the site has to be fast and interactive without taking the CMS away from the people who publish. If your team is happy in a well-built classic theme, you don't.

WooCommerce when the store belongs inside a WordPress site you already run — one CMS, content and commerce together, full control. Shopify when checkout, payments, and uptime should be handled for you, and some platform lock-in is a fair trade. I build both, so the recommendation follows your catalog and your team — not a platform allegiance.

Usually, yes. Failing Core Web Vitals, plugin pile-ups, and page-builder bloat are fixable in place. I audit first — and if a rescue gets you where you need to be, that's what I'll recommend.

A small WordPress site typically runs 2–3 weeks and a custom-designed one starts at about 3; a WooCommerce store runs about 7, a headless build about 6, and headless commerce about 8. A custom React build starts at about 4 weeks, with features quoted from there. How ready your content is moves the date more than anything else. Rescues and audits land faster. You get a timeline with milestones before work starts.

WordPress sites start at $1,200 for a starter site, $1,800 for a launch site, and $2,500 for a custom-designed business site; WooCommerce stores start at $8,000. Custom React builds start at $4,000, headless WordPress at $8,000, and headless commerce at $12,000 — starting points agreed before any work begins, not an hourly meter. Page count alone doesn't move the number. What does: how many distinct page designs the site needs, custom features and integrations, how ready your content and design direction are, and how many people sign off. Bring your URL to a 30-minute call and you'll leave with a real range.

Every build ships with a 30-day warranty — defects fixed free — and the first month of WebsiteCare included, so uptime monitoring, daily backups, threat detection, and error reporting are running from launch day. After that, keeping the plan is one decision, not a setup project: WebsiteCare at $300 a month, or WebsiteCare+ at $550 for a weekly cycle and priority response.

Yes. The code, the content, and the accounts are yours — hosting, domain, and repository in your name, not rented back to you. Handoff includes the credentials, the docs, and training for your team, so nothing about running the site depends on me still being around.

Yes — that's a design requirement, not an afterthought. WordPress builds ship with editing systems marketers can run, plus guides for the workflows your team actually uses. Handoff includes training, not just credentials.

More search now flows through AI assistants and agents that read structured data and clean, crawlable content. I build sites those systems can parse and cite — schema markup, semantic pages, fast responses — alongside the classic SEO fundamentals.

That's the point of doing it carefully: content mapped, URL structure preserved or redirected one-to-one, and rankings verified after cutover. SEO is a first-class requirement of every migration I run, not a casualty of it.
