WordPress developer with VPS server administration skills | 5+ yrs exp

Hello!
I’m not going to tell you what I can do, I’m going to list things I’ve already done in the past.
Here’s some of the things I’ve done for WordPress technical optimization:
• WP security beyond installing a plugin—WAF, server-side protection — fail2ban or basic HTTP Auth to protect from brute force attacks, proper user permissions, firewall rules, free and automatic SSL certificate renewal;
• Configurations of automatic backups to Wasabi cloud storage with immutability (a website hacker won’t be able to delete your backups);
• Testing a restoration from a backup on a staging (test) site;
• Configuring autodeployment on a Runcloud-powered VPS from a GitHub repository (a developer pushes changes to the staging branch —> they are autodeployed on the staging site —> a teammate can immediately see them and test the site);
• Speed optimization beyond installing a plugin (CDN, assets optimisations, migration to a VPS server, different types of caching, etc.). In spring 2026, I optimized a heavy WordPress Elementor website with many marketing plugins installed, the load time was 0.7-1.4s.
• Lowering dependence on plugins, especially on the ones that aren’t maintained well or cause conflicts with other plugins.
• Fixing misconfiguration of WordPress on the server side (NGINX server blocks, Apache’s or OpenLiteSpeed’s .htaccess file)
• Ensuring emails are sent (choosing an SMTP provider, configuring a plugin or Postfix to use that SMTP connection, etc.)
Here’s some of the things I’ve done for WordPress marketing optimization:
• Strategic marketing advice to a US client (to start blogging to get SEO traffic and make their website visually appealing because they sell visual products and brand perception matters);
• Basic SEO foundation (choosing proper HTML tags, installing and configuring a SEO plugin, ensuring pages and posts have meta titles and descriptions, etc.);
• Improvements of UX: layout structure, user flow, messaging, CTA placement;
• Conversion rate optimization of an Elementor-Woocommerce website (see the results in my portfolio);
• Creation of landing pages, blogs;
• Integrations with marketing software (MailerLite, Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, Matomo Analytics, Zoho Forms, Make_com, etc.);
• Matomo Analytics and Klaro CMP (Consent Management Platform) integration (ensuring Matomo Analytics script is loaded only after a user gives consent to the “Statistics” cookies).
When it comes to design&development, I’ve built a few websites using Divi, Elementor (inc. its Pro version) and Gutenberg. Nowadays, I am more focused on setting up an infrastructure for WordPress CMS and Ghost CMS, and optimizing WordPress websites for security and speed, than on designing and building websites. If a client needs a WordPress or static website designed and built, I use AI to create it fast.
== Please note:
• I don’t work with companies/individuals who operate in the alcohol, tobacco, financial scam or gambling industries.
• My user experience design skill is better than the visual user interface design skill. It means the reason to hire me should not be "make me a premium looking website on WordPress", it should be something like this "review my current website/design, suggest how to improve its value and usability for a user, optimize security, speed, basic SEO, conversion rates, integrate analytics software, ensure visual design is consistent across pages, etc."
