Macky has supported my business with website improvements on more than one occasion and I have to say he is a pleasure to work with. His expertise, professionalism and ease make him my go-to person for all things website. Thank you, Macky!
Freelance WordPress Developer. Professional Web Development – On Tap
Agency and Business Owners Breath a Sigh of Relief - A Wordpress Developer They Can Trust.
That's me, Macky.
I partner with web design agencies and businesses to build high performing professional WordPress websites that can scale and grow.
Macky has built our website and will now also build new one for our sister co. He is our main support for anything website related and words cannot express how amazingly helpful, patient and professional he is. Highly recommended by Forest Retreats and Hill Farm, Tintern.
I have had the fortune of working with Macky through a mutual client of ours on their website. Macky is always really quick to respond when I encounter a glitch with the website (almost always due to something that I've not done correctly!), and he has endless patience. I'm learning as I go along, so Macky's guidance is invaluable and I really value him taking the time to explain things to me rather than just fix things.
My Promise
Say goodbye to unreliable freelancers and work with a wordpress developer who does things the right way.
Check out my processIt’s a minefield. There is so much to consider when building a website, and freelancer platforms can be risky, sometimes leading to uncontrolled costs and outcomes that you weren’t expecting.
You need someone who you can trust to deliver professional standards with clear pricing.
When we work together, here’s what I promise:
Clearly defined deliverables
You'll receive a proposal that clearly lists all deliverables. To avoid hidden costs, I will work with you to make sure that everything that the site needs is covered in the quote.
60-day guarantee for all work
I’m so confident in the quality I provide, I’ll fix any issues with my work within 60 days for free. Need extended support? Ask me about care plans when we speak.
Clean HTML, accessible, responsive & scalable
Using an organised approach, professional tech stack and BEM methodology as standard, the site will not only perform well now, but will be able to easily handle scaling and design adjustments going forward.
End-to-end support
Don’t worry about the set up, the environment, staging or testing. I'll take your design all the way to deployment, with no fuss.
Every element understood
No copy/paste AI solutions here! Vibe coding is on the increase - but you’re in safe hands with me.
Professional tech stack
As an expert with Bricks builder and ACSS, used by 1,000s of developers, the site will boast a clean DOM, efficient CMS and clean code. Always. No bloated page builders or messy admin areas.

What if there was a WordPress focused developer who:

FAQ
Some common questions I get
What if I need support beyond your 60-day guarantee?
I offer monthly or annual maintenance and support plans which start at £50 per month. I’ll share all the details on our first discovery call.Are there any tools that you refuse to work with?
I avoid poorly coded and bloated plugins, themes and page builders, like Divi, Beaver Builder and Elementor. I can suggest alternative options or help you rebuild your site with a page builder like Bricks which produces much cleaner HTML output and is easier to extend for developers.Why shouldn’t I hire someone cheaper on Fiverr or Upwork?
You can! But remember that the price is not the same as the cost. The cost is what you end up paying in the long run, including your time wasted for miscommunications, bug reports, or a complete code rewrite because that person disappeared and their code is a nightmare. It happens so often and you’ll be calling someone like me to come in and fix it all for you. It’s much cheaper to do it right the first time with the right developer.What project management tool do you use?
I use Basecamp for working with clients, mainly for its ease of use. If we need to work ‘Agile’ in sprints, or on much larger software projects, I am comfortable working in other tools like Jira or Asana.Once you get started on a project what do you need from me?
Not much! I’ll need credentials in some cases to clone a current website or to connect to APIs. Otherwise you can carry on running your business while I plan the work required, write the code, test it, troubleshoot and test it again until everything works smoothly.
