Freelance WordPress Developer New York – Build, Fix & Scale

Fast, secure, SEO-ready WordPress websites for New York businesses. Affordable like a freelancer, strategic like an agency.

Why Your NYC WordPress Site Needs More Than a Quick Fix

WordPress powers over 40% of the internet, but in New York City, competition is fierce. Many businesses hire low-cost freelancers or agencies that deliver generic websites—but those sites often fail on speed, security, or SEO.

I started as a freelance WordPress developer in NYC and, over 15+ years, evolved into a WordPress strategist. That means I don’t just fix broken sites or install themes—I design long-term solutions that rank in Google, appear in AI answers, and convert visitors into leads.

Why NYC Businesses Struggle With WordPress

  • Broken plugins and theme conflicts cause downtime

  • Security gaps make sites vulnerable to hacks

  • Slow loading speeds → poor Core Web Vitals → lost leads

  • No SEO setup → site looks fine but doesn’t rank

  • Freelancers disappear after launch → no long-term support

💡 Fact: More than 50% of mobile users abandon a site if it takes more than 3 seconds to load (Google).

Challenges I Solve

Example: A Brooklyn salon’s booking site crashed during peak season. I fixed plugin conflicts and restored functionality within 24 hours.

A Queens ecommerce store doubled sales after I streamlined checkout, improved speed, and added schema.

Security & Speed
