You will get your WordPress site sped up, secured, and fixed
Rising Talent
Project details
A slow or unsafe WordPress site costs you customers and sleep. I fix both.
I speed up, secure, and repair WordPress sites: performance and Core Web Vitals, the security work most people skip until something breaks, plugin and theme updates, and whatever is currently broken. I ran IT and security for businesses for years, so this part is second nature.
Every engagement includes an OWASP vulnerability scan, concrete proof of what was exposed and what I fixed, not something most web freelancers can offer. You work with me directly, and I will tell you straight what your site needs.
Send me your site and the problem and I will give you a real assessment.

Excellent work process. The creation of my website went smoother than I anticipated. I'd work with David again.

Website Review and Redesign - FinTech Company
David was excellent! We are in the process of re-thinking and re-designing our company website to make it cleaner, easier for B2B clients to navigate to the proper information, make it faster, more stable, and easier to maintain. All goals were met, on-time and on-budget. David proposed different options at points in the process; they were spot-on and made for a better outcome. Recommend without hesitation.

30 Yrs Building Websites | IT Security Leader, OWASP Certified

Job Success
Stratham, United States - 11:54 pm local time
Most people who build websites have never had to defend one. I co-founded an IT security firm that built one of the first intrusion prevention systems able to stop an attack on its own, without waiting on an administrator, and I did security audits and compliance work under Gramm-Leach-Bliley, HIPAA, and Sarbanes-Oxley. I am certified through the Mossé Cyber Security Institute in OWASP vulnerability scanning, and every site I build is scanned for common web vulnerabilities before it goes live.
What I do:
• WordPress care and security: updates, backups, monitoring, the security work most people skip
• Custom websites designed around your business, not dropped into a template
• Redesigns that bring a dated site up to current standards for speed, mobile, and search
• SEO and GEO, so you get found in Google and in the AI answers people now ask first
• AI marketing systems that keep content, posts, and lead follow-up running
I pair that judgment with modern AI tooling, which means you get agency-quality work without the agency timeline or the agency invoice.
You work with me directly. Not a sales team, not a junior handed your project. I read every message myself and usually reply within a day.
Recent work: a full rebuild for a Seacoast landscaping company, a modern site with an AI marketing engine behind it, and Lumis, a privacy-first health app I designed, built, and shipped to the App Store end to end.
New to Upwork, not new to the work. Thirty years of it sits behind this profile; the platform history is just getting started.
Tell me what you are working on and I will send back a clear plan, a price, and a timeline.
