If your Wix website looks outdated, feels like a template, or isn't converting — that's my specialty. ⭐ 5-Star Rated Wix Studio Expert Designer & SEO Strategist with 16+ years of experience helping businesses refresh, redesign, and grow their online presence. I don't just make sites look better — I restructure the user experience and optimize for search so your site drives real results: more demo requests, more leads, and more trust from the moment someone lands on your page. I also provide instructions on how to maintain the site, like media, text, and other things that you might need to maintain the website afterwards, upon request. Every review I've earned on Upwork reflects one thing: clients who came with a problem and left with a site they're proud to share. 🎨 Design & Development: → Visual redesigns and layout improvements in Wix & Wix Studio → UX cleanup: spacing, typography, visual hierarchy, mobile responsiveness → SaaS, service, health coaching, and e-commerce brand websites → Conversion-focused design (CTAs, flow, messaging clarity) → Figma-to-Wix transfers with pixel-level accuracy → Email capture, landing pages, and coming-soon builds → Ongoing site maintenance, blog publishing, and content updates 🔍 SEO Services: → Organic Content Performance Analysis — keyword rankings, top 10 keywords, content strengths & gaps, target audience alignment → LLM SEO Phrases used as strategic blog categories → Technical SEO Audit — page structure, meta setup, URL slugs, focus keywords, speed optimization → On-page optimization & ADA accessibility compliance → Cookie banner setup & each-page SEO compliance templates → Competitor Analysis — including CPC and ad spend insights → Google & paid ad strategy — 3 targeted ad concepts per campaign (short headline, long headline, description) → Blog strategy — topic ideas, FAQ development (General, Pricing, Technical/Trust), and full blog post writing per category → Content optimization aligned with how AI search engines (LLMs) surface results 🏗️ Who I work best with: You already have a site live — but it doesn't reflect the quality of your business. Maybe it looks like everyone else's template. Maybe your bounce rate is high. Maybe you're invisible on Google. That's exactly where I come in. I also work with clients building from scratch who need a clean, modern, search-optimized Wix site — without the back-and-forth. Industries I've worked in: Healthcare & SaaS • Design-Build & Construction • Health & Wellness Coaching • E-Commerce • AI & Tech Enablement • All around the world 🌎 🔧 My process is simple: I review your current site or brief, identify what's holding it back visually and in search, then deliver a refreshed design and SEO strategy that feels intentional — not templated. I communicate clearly, hit deadlines, and don't disappear mid-project. ✅ What you can expect: → Clean, modern design that matches your brand → Mobile-first, fast-loading pages → Clear CTAs that guide visitors toward action → A full SEO foundation — technical, on-page, and content → A designer and strategist who asks the right questions upfront My clients leave happy. The reviews speak for themselves. ✦ Top Rated & ID Verified Let's make your site work as hard as you do. 🚀

WordPress Website Designer & Developer | Elementor Pro, Figma UX/UI

Brooklyn, New York
$90 per hour
333 jobs

I am a U.S.-based WordPress website designer and developer specializing in custom Elementor Pro websites, WordPress redesigns, Figma UX/UI design, Figma-to-WordPress builds, landing pages, CRO, and ongoing website support. I am a Top Rated Plus Upwork freelancer with a 100% Job Success Score and more than 300 completed projects. With over 15 years of experience running a web design and digital marketing studio, I have worked with growing businesses, nonprofit organizations, professional services firms, startups, marketing agencies, and internationally recognized brands. My past clients include TIDAL, A/D/O by MINI/BMW Group, BHP, and Evan Williams Bourbon. SERVICES • Custom WordPress website design and development • WordPress website redesigns and modernization • Elementor Pro website design and development • Figma UX/UI website design • Figma-to-WordPress and Figma-to-Elementor development • Landing page design and conversion optimization • Responsive WordPress development • WooCommerce website design • Website performance and optimization • Accessibility and usability improvements • On-page SEO implementation and technical website optimization • Content migration and website launches • WordPress maintenance and ongoing website support • White-label WordPress and Elementor support for marketing agencies CUSTOM WORDPRESS DESIGN Your website will be designed around your brand, audience, content, and business goals. I do not simply add content to an off-the-shelf template. I create custom website experiences designed to feel professional, modern, intuitive, and appropriate for your organization. DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT TOGETHER I work across both Figma UX/UI design and WordPress development, which allows me to carry the original design vision through to the finished Elementor Pro website. This reduces the inconsistencies that can occur when separate designers and developers handle different parts of the project. WEBSITE REDESIGNS I regularly help organizations modernize outdated WordPress websites, improve structure and navigation, create stronger visual hierarchy, improve mobile usability, simplify ongoing website management, and make important pages more effective at generating inquiries and conversions. ONGOING WORDPRESS SUPPORT I can remain involved after launch for WordPress maintenance, Elementor updates, new landing pages, website improvements, performance optimization, accessibility, SEO implementation, CRO, and ongoing support. WHITE-LABEL AGENCY PARTNERSHIPS I also work with marketing and creative agencies that need an experienced white-label WordPress partner for client website design, Figma UX/UI, Elementor Pro development, website rebuilds, landing pages, technical support, maintenance, SEO implementation, and overflow website work. DIRECT COLLABORATION I lead KRS Creative, a small Brooklyn-based web design studio. We remain intentionally small so clients receive direct communication and experienced involvement throughout the project. If you are planning a WordPress website, Elementor Pro rebuild, website redesign, Figma-to-WordPress project, landing page, or ongoing website support engagement, send me an overview of the project, your preferred timeline, and any existing website or design links.

Your website looks good but isn't bringing in leads. That's not a design problem, it's a conversion problem, and it's the one I fix. I turn websites into lead-generation engines. With 10 years of experience, I help businesses redesign and improve websites using WordPress, Webflow, and Shopify. My work focuses on creating digital experiences that attract visitors, guide them toward action, and connect seamlessly with the tools businesses use to manage and nurture leads. Many websites fail because they were built only to launch, not to perform. Slow pages, unclear messaging, weak user journeys, and disconnected lead capture systems can cause businesses to lose valuable opportunities. I help solve these challenges through: • Website redesigns and complete website revamps • Figma-to-WordPress, Webflow, and Shopify development • UX/UI improvements based on user behavior insights • Conversion optimization using UX principles, analytics, and tools like Hotjar • High-converting landing pages and lead generation websites • WordPress, Elementor, and WooCommerce development • Shopify ecommerce optimization • Core Web Vitals and website performance improvements • CRM integrations and seamless lead routing • Analytics setup, tracking, and reporting My approach goes beyond building pages. I focus on creating websites that support the complete customer journey, from the first visitor interaction to the moment a qualified lead reaches your business. ✔ Business-focused website strategy ✔ Conversion-focused UX and design ✔ Clean, scalable CMS implementation ✔ Connected marketing and lead management systems ✔ Reliable communication and execution If your website looks good but is not generating the results your business needs, I can help turn it into a stronger growth asset.
