UK Freelance WordPress Developer
Need help with your WordPress site?
I help businesses with WordPress development, fixes, customisation and ongoing support.
I’ve worked with WordPress since 2008, helping more than 500 clients across nearly 2,000 projects.
How I Can Help
WordPress Development
Custom development, theme changes, plugin customisation, integrations, bug fixes and improvements to existing WordPress sites.
WordPress Support
Something broken or not working as it should? I can help with plugin conflicts, errors, failed updates, performance problems and general WordPress troubleshooting.
Why Work With Me
My name is Neil Matthews. I’m a UK-based freelance WordPress developer, and you work directly with me.
I’ve been working with WordPress since 2008. I’ve helped more than 500 clients and completed nearly 2,000 projects, including development, fixes, customisation and support. WooCommerce is part of that experience when a project needs it.
I’m based in the UK, and I’ve worked with clients in the US, Canada, mainland Europe, Australia and New Zealand.
My Numbers
My Process
1. Tell me what you need help with
Use the form on this page and tell me what you need help with on your WordPress site.
2. I'll review it
I'll come back with any questions, recommendations and the likely cost or next step.
3. We agree the next step
If you're happy to go ahead, we agree the work. That might be a one-off fix, development work, or ongoing support.
4. I'll do the work
I'll schedule and complete the work, and keep you updated.
5. Quality assurance
The work is not finished until you're happy. I check it carefully so it is delivered as we agreed.
No Fix No Fee
If I can’t fix your WordPress problem, for whatever reason, I’ll refund your deposit payment and return your site to you in the way you sent it to me.
Testimonials from my clients
Frequently Asked Questions
That depends on the help you need.
Tell me what you need help with and I’ll come back with any questions and the likely cost. For a defined piece of work, I’ll send a fixed price. What we agree is what you pay, with no extra fees added later.
Getting in touch costs nothing, and there is no obligation. I’ll follow up once if I don’t hear back.
Payment comes in two phases.
Deposit: I’ll request 50% payment up front before work begins.
Final payment: once the project is complete and you are happy to sign it off, I’ll send the final 50%.
I’ll send an invoice from FreshBooks. That has a link to a Stripe checkout so you can pay by card. We can arrange a bank transfer or PayPal if you prefer.
On a small number of projects I have realised that I cannot fix the issue my client is having.
If this is the case on your project, I’ll let you know and refund all deposit money paid.
I’ll return your site to you the way you sent it to me.
Once we start our project together I’ll send you an invite for my project management software, Basecamp.
I’ll create a shared project where we can keep up to date on progress and chat with each other.
I’ll update you when I start working, at the end of the day, and throughout the work, so you always know where we are.
Of course. I’ll link you with one of my existing clients upon request.
I’ve been working as a freelance WordPress developer since 2008, and in IT for all of my career.
I’ve worked with more than 500 clients on approaching 2,000 projects.
I know WordPress well, and I’m confident I can help with your WordPress requirement.
I’ve worked with clients all across the world. I frequently work with clients in the US, Canada, Australia and New Zealand.
I understand how to work across time zones, and there will always be part of the day when we are both online.
I’ll give you full updates on the work in Basecamp.
Many clients find that me working while they are offline is a bonus, because changes happen when fewer of their visitors are on the site.
You can get in touch before we start in any of these ways:
- Email me at [email protected]
- Use the form on my contact page
- Use the live chat link at the bottom right of this page.
