What I fix

Most WordPress emergencies fall into a handful of shapes, and I have worked through all of them - on my own sites and on other people’s.

The site is down or broken

  • White screen of death, 500 errors, critical error after an update
  • Plugin or theme conflicts, fatal PHP errors
  • Database connection failures
  • Malware cleanup, injected spam links, compromised admin accounts

The site needs to move

  • Host to host, with no downtime
  • Domain change, HTTP to HTTPS, with redirects and internal links rewritten so nothing 404s
  • Staging to production
  • Email and DNS kept working through the move

WooCommerce is losing money

  • Checkout failing, payment methods not appearing
  • Apple Pay and Google Pay setup
  • Bulk product import, catalogue restructuring
  • Speed, and mobile layouts that break the buy button

How I work on a broken site

  1. Backup first. Always, before touching anything.
  2. Find the actual cause - error logs, not guesswork. Guessing on a live site is how you break it twice.
  3. Fix, verify, and write down what was wrong so it does not come back.

You get the fix plus a short plain-English note explaining what happened. No calls to schedule, no meetings - which usually means your site is back sooner.

Pricing

Fixed price agreed before I start, so you know the cost up front. Send me the symptoms and the access, and I will tell you what it is and what it costs.
