I'm Asif. I've been doing WordPress full time for 10+ years, with 300+ jobs and a 100% Job Success Score on Upwork over 3,400+ hours. Most of my clients are in the UK, US, Australia, the Netherlands, and UAE, so I keep my hours overlapped with their time zones. You'll usually hear back from me within a few hours.
I help businesses build, redesign, improve and maintain WordPress websites that load faster, convert better and are easier to manage. Whether you need a brand-new WordPress website, a complete WordPress redesign, a WooCommerce store, an Elementor website, a custom WordPress solution or ongoing WordPress maintenance, I can manage the project from planning through to launch and long-term support.
My work covers both front-end design and back-end development, allowing me to deliver complete WordPress solutions rather than just individual tasks. I regularly work on custom WordPress development, WordPress plugin development, WordPress theme development, WooCommerce customization, Elementor development, WordPress security improvements, Core Web Vitals optimization, WordPress troubleshooting and complex website migrations.

GET A PROFESSIONAL WORDPRESS REVIEW AND ACTION PLAN
If youโre looking for a Top Rated Plus WordPress Developer who understands development, customization, Technical SEO, migration, and fixes โ with optional Shopify development support, feel free to reach out. Iโll review your WordPress website and suggest improvements that actually make sense for your project.
I build custom WordPress and WooCommerce sites in clean, maintainable code the kind that stays fast and secure and doesn't break every time a plugin updates. I'm a software engineer with 4+ years of experience, not a page-builder installer.
Recent clients have called the work "exceptional" and said I delivered "exactly what they needed" because I write real PHP, React, and Laravel, and build WordPress solutions that hold up long-term.
WHAT I DO
Custom themes & plugins built from scratch (clean, object-oriented PHP)
REST APIs connecting WordPress to React dashboards or Flutter apps
WooCommerce stores that stay fast and don't break
Laravel web apps for the complex projects, not just blogs
Rescues: I audit, fix, and optimize slow, buggy, or hacked sites
COMMON HEADACHES I SOLVE
"My theme is a mess of spaghetti code." โ Rebuilt to WordPress coding standards.
"Every plugin update breaks my site." โ Git, staging, and proper deployment workflows.
"I need a members dashboard / mobile app." โ Custom React or Flutter, wired through the REST API.
"It's not truly responsive." โ Hand-coded CSS/JS, no page-builder glitches.
HOW I WORK
Discovery โ clear scope & fixed quote โ build on staging (you see everything before launch) โ handover with clean code, docs, and 30 days of support.
Tell me your biggest WordPress headache and I'll reply with exactly how I'd solve it.
