Get Your Website Fixed
Part of a web programmer’s role is to debug and fix problems. Years of experience enable me to quickly identify and repair website problems.
Hiring me to fix your website is simple.
Fill out this form. Include a link to the page with the problem, and a detailed description of what is wrong. The more details you provide, the quicker I can get a website fixed.
I will follow up fast (usually same day), to understand and confirm what needs fixed.
I will provide an estimate for what it may cost to fix your site. Keep in mind, some code issues are obvious to an experienced developer, but others take time to methodically go through the code to rule out the source. Because of this I only bill hourly to debug code problems.
Once I report back that the issue is fixed, it is up to you to review and test your website code.
Fixing one thing can also show new problems that were hidden. Sometimes fixing one code problem, can break something else. With me not coding your website or ever reviewing your website code before, it is imperative that you fully test the changes.
Once your website repairs are complete, I will send you an invoice over email that you can pay securely online with a credit card, bank transfer, PayPal or Venmo.
Often, I can diagnose website problems just by looking at a web page. Keep in mind every website is unique though. By you providing me clear details of the website problems you need fixed, I can diagnose and fix your website issues much faster.
It's been a pleasure working with you. I can't remember an experience this good. I will certainly recommend you to any friends or acquaintances that need website maintenance and repair.

If you have code errors showing on a web page, it doesn’t look professional. Some errors are simple to fix, like how to fix a 404 error on your website. Fixing a website security certificate error requires more effort.
Beyond the actual error, a bigger concern is that you are showing information that should be secured (like your server file paths or database names). Hackers will exploit this information, making your site vulnerable to being attacked.
If you don’t know what to look for, you can spend all day trying to find the source. An experienced programmer can find and fix code errors quickly.

If you have website database errors, at a minimum your website is not functioning properly, worst case your website is not loading at all.
A common database error that people hire me to fix is “Error Establishing a Database Connection”. This means the code can not “talk” to the database. There can be a couple of reasons for this, one is an easy fix, the other can be a bigger problem.
If you have a secure certificate but are still seeing not secure errors, then part of your page is not loading on a secure connection. Hire me to find and fix why this is happening.
Fixing “Not Secure” website errors is important for the credibility of your website and business. If you have an eCommerce site, it needs to be priority to fix.
Website errors leave a bad impression for your users. A lot of them will leave and not come back.
If you don’t have a secure certificate, you need to purchase/install one.
If you have one, your website code needs to be configured properly to load it.
Hire me to identify the issue and fix not secure website errors.

An audit report will identify SEO issues, but then you need to fix them.

Hacked Websites
If you’re not sure how to fix a hacked website, you’re in luck. Cleaning hacked websites and then properly securing them so they don’t get hacked again is one of my specialties.
Fixing Hacked WordPress Websites
Most of the hacked websites I fix are WordPress websites. If not properly secured and maintained, WordPress will eventually get hacked. People forget that website code is software. It needs to be maintained regularly.
I talk about things you can do to secure WordPress here. I offer proactive WordPress maintenance plans to prevent your site from getting infected with malware. I also clean hacked websites and secure them to protect them moving forward.
No Gimmicks
I do not offer “unlimited malware removal” plans like some website fixing companies do because my goal is to fix the source of your website’s weakness so it does not get hacked again. Not bill you to clean it each time it gets hacked.
Yup. There are lots of reasons why a website is down. Contact me with a link to your site so I can review what’s going on.
Slow websites are frustrating. Optimizing your website for speed is important to rank higher in Google and get users to stay on your site longer.
- It’s important to Google.
- It’s important to users.
If you use a CMS like WordPress to manage your website content, you want the admin tools to be fast.
- So, it’s important to you too.
Most people that contact me about their slow website want to know “Why is my WordPress site so slow?”
WordPress is not slow by default. There are a lot of factors that can make your site load slowly.
I specialize in debugging and fixing slow websites and fixing why your site is so slow.
There is not a straitforward answer why your website is loading slowly.It takes time to review, analyze and find the source. If you hire me to work on your WordPress website, I know I can make it faster.

Mobile website design has been around for almost 15 years. Google started penalizing websites in 2015 that are not mobile-friendly.
Technology changes so fast on the Internet. If your site hasn’t been redesigned since this became popular, you have other outdated technologies to address too. Read more about website redesign services.
