Hello, my name is Aleksej Khoroshevskij. I was born in Kharkiv (Ukraine) and I live there.
Since about 2008 to the present day, I have been developing websites on Joomla and WebSite X5. I also provide services in their modernization, SEO promotion, PPC advertising (Ads), protection against hacking and website speed up.
In 2009, I graduated from Kharkiv National Economic University (Faculty of Economic Informatics) with a degree in Computerized Technologies and Systems of Publishing and Printing Production (Master's degree). In 2015 I defended the dissertation (PhD) in speciality of Information Technology at Kharkiv National University of Radio Electronics (name on diploma - Khoroshevskyi Oleksii Ihorovych, taking into account the spelling of the name in Ukrainian). The dissertation was devoted to Web-to-print based on Joomla.
At the graduate school and after graduation, I taught disciplines related to multimedia publications and printing (laboratory works, practical works, term papers and theses).
I have a blog since 2010. There are also other personal projects. I do everything myself: starting from the idea to implementation, analysis and modernization.
I write blog posts myself. In addition, I post my own interfaces translations of various Joomla extensions in Russian and Ukrainian.
I have been freelancing since 2014: mainly developing websites and online stores on Joomla (Freelancehunt.com, Freelance.ua, Free-lance.ua).
In 2015, I opened a YouTube channel and began selling my WebSite X5 video tutorials in the Russian language. In 2016, I released another paid video tutorials in the Russian language, and in 2019 - in English (I also started blogging in English). I am one of the moderators of the WebSite X5 technical support forum.
In 2018, I registered as an individual entrepreneur (something like Sole Proprietorship in the USA) and continued developing websites. By the way, my individual entrepreneur registration date coincides with the birthday of Joomla.

JOOMLA, Laravel, php, Wordpress, MySql, Ajax, JQuery - more then 10 years experience.
I'm working as Joomla developer since 2008.
Throughout this long journey I became expert in developing all Joomla extension types that are efficient, complying with Joomla MVC standards, exactly meeting client and business requirements.
My experience enables me to help customers to find the best solution for their problems, also I'm helping them to enhance/modify their requirements and the solution based on existing Joomla features they don't know about yet.
Due to the large number of Joomla extensions I have developed, I know exactly how to customize any Joomla extension such that it keeps being update-able ,as much as possible, in case the original developer releases any update in the future, for example I customized joomshopping, Virtuemart, Jomsocial, etc..
Working as a freelancer, I learnt how to guarantee customer satisfaction to build long-term relationships, starting from discussing the project details to meet all the client needs, up-to providing a perfect price along with high quality and prompt support.
If you want to achieve your goals and complete your Joomla projects exactly like you wish, you can depend on me.
