I audit, optimise, and harden WordPress sites for speed and security — fixing the performance leaks and security gaps that cost you rankings, conversions, and customer trust. Every optimisation is measurable, every fix is documented, and every site is tested before handover.
Google uses page speed as a ranking signal. A one-second delay in load time reduces conversions by up to 7%. And a hacked WordPress site doesn’t just cost you revenue — it costs you your Google rankings, your customers’ trust, and days of recovery time.
I’ve audited and optimised hundreds of WordPress sites across every niche — e-commerce, professional services, SaaS, and blogs. Most sites I work on go from 40–60 PageSpeed scores to 90+ within 2 weeks, with zero disruption to live traffic.

Book a free 30-minute performance and security audit. I’ll run your site through PageSpeed Insights, GTmetrix, and a security scanner — and give you a prioritised list of fixes with estimated impact.
Image compression, lazy loading, caching setup, database optimisation, Core Web Vitals fixes, and plugin audit — everything needed to get your WordPress site scoring 90+ on PageSpeed Insights on both mobile and desktop.
Two-factor authentication, login protection, file permission hardening, malware scanning, firewall setup, and WordPress core and plugin update management — so your site stays protected without you thinking about it.
If your site has been hacked or infected, I remove the malware, close the vulnerabilities, restore clean files, and submit for Google Search Console reconsideration — getting you back online fast with the root cause fixed.
Monthly WordPress core, theme, and plugin updates; uptime monitoring; automated backups; and a monthly performance and security report. Your site stays fast, current, and protected — without you lifting a finger.

Not sure which package fits? Let’s figure it out together.
01.
I don’t stop until your site scores 90+ on PageSpeed Insights for both mobile and desktop. If we don’t hit that after a full optimisation, I keep working — no extra charge.
Results-backed, not just best effort
02.
Security hardening done wrong breaks plugins, blocks legitimate users, and creates admin headaches. I implement security measures that are robust without being disruptive — tested on staging before touching your live site.
Secure and fully functional
03.
Every optimisation is tested on a staging environment before it touches your live site. No surprise downtime, no broken pages, no angry customers. Staged rollout, every time.
Tested on staging, deployed with confidence
04.
After every optimisation project, you get a full report of what was done, what changed, and how to maintain performance going forward — so your team doesn’t undo the gains six months later.
You stay in control long-term

Google's Core Web Vitals benchmarks recommend a score of 90+ on both mobile and desktop. Most unoptimised WordPress sites score between 30–65 — which means they're losing rankings, conversions, and ad quality scores. Mobile is especially important: over 60% of web traffic is mobile, and Google uses mobile performance as the primary ranking signal.
Plugin conflicts are the most common cause of speed issues in WordPress, and optimisation can surface them. I always work on a staging environment first, so nothing breaks on your live site. I audit every plugin for performance impact and security risk, and recommend replacements where needed — with your approval before making any changes.
Common signs include: Google Search Console showing 'site may be hacked' warnings, visitors being redirected to spam sites, your hosting provider suspending your account, unusual spikes in server load, or new admin users appearing that you didn't create. If any of these apply, contact me immediately — the longer a compromise goes unfixed, the more damage it does to your Google rankings and customer trust.
Most sites can be fully optimised in 5–10 business days — audit on day 1–2, fixes implemented on a staging environment over days 3–7, tested thoroughly, then deployed to live. Malware removal and recovery is faster — typically 24–48 hours for clean sites, up to 5 days for severely compromised installations that require file reconstruction.
A one-time optimisation solves your current problems — but WordPress sites drift back over time as plugins update, new content is added, and new vulnerabilities emerge. A maintenance plan keeps your site at peak performance permanently. For e-commerce sites processing payments, or professional service sites where reputation matters, ongoing maintenance is strongly recommended.
Every month: WordPress core, theme, and plugin updates (tested before applying); daily automated backups stored off-site; uptime monitoring with alerts if your site goes down; a PageSpeed and security scan; and a written report of what was updated and your current scores. Any issues identified during maintenance are fixed within the billing period at no extra charge.
