Available for freelance web work!

Looking for help with your WordPress website?

Updates or changes needed for your website?

Finding the technical side of your website a hassle?

Problems with your website, or something you don't have time to do yourself?

I'm available for freelance web work!

Whether it's problems with your website that need fixing, or a large project.

Happy to consider...

  • Large projects.
  • Small projects and fixes.
  • Fixing a few issues.
  • Ongoing maintenance/support.
15+ years experience (I've even written a book on WordPress!)

I often work with sole traders, self employed and one-person businesses - and a lot of my work is fixing problems with existing websites and making changes.

Ensuring your website is running smoothly, so you have peace of mind and can focus on your business.

Monthly Website Maintenance

 Do you...

  • Struggle to manage your website?
  • Find looking after updates and backups overwhelming?
  • Not have time to deal with the technical aspects?
  • Frustrated with fixing technical issues with your website?
  • Need peace of mind that your website is always running smoothly?
  • Looking for someone to provide technical support and answers to your questions?
I offer a caretaker service as a monthly subscription!

I'll look after the technical side of your website - providing you with peace of mind, so you can focus on your content and business.


I'll take care of...
  • Ensuring your website is backed up regularly.
  • Install updates.
  • Provide you with technical support.
  • Resolving any problems you may have with your website, and answering any questions about your website you may have.
(Just like a caretaker of a building will ensure everything is working, sort out any repairs, although not responsible for any major changes or building work!)

Providing you (and your business) with peace of mind!

Saving you time, hassle, and potentially money.

15+ years experience working in IT, software and websites.


Ideal for...
  • Self employed.
  • Sole traders.
  • Small business owners.
Only £55 per month (or £660 per year).
No long-term contracts - cancel anytime!

A subscription can work out more cost effective then paying an hourly rate when you encounter problems with your website, or require additional help.

This price takes into consideration that during some months, there may be a lot of work and issues, while at other times, there may not be much to do.
