Is your online store keeping you up at night?
Lacking support
No business can afford upset customers and lost revenues from website problems. Online stores need a capable, responsible developer who knows the store inside and out ready and on-call.
Marketplace fees
Freelancer marketplaces don’t live up to their claims. They are heavily dependent on offshore labor, fee everybody to death, force fixed projects, and have rules that impede teamwork.
Pending updates
Update button anxiety is a common problem for online store owners. Outdated components impede vendor support. Poorly coded customizations cause upgrade difficulties.
Security threats
Fake orders showing up is never a good sign! There’s also unsupported apps / plugins, over generous admin accounts, weak passwords, missing firewall, and urgent scanner reports.
Most developers and agencies work per-project. They come, then they go.
Not Sean. He remains a crucial part of your team, year after year!
My WooCommerce migration did not go well and business nearly fell in half. Thankfully a good friend of mine found Sean. He cleaned-up our site, cut the number of plugins in half, fixed SSL, 404, and email credibility troubles, improved design templates and PageSpeed score 10x. After only six months, not only have we gained back all of our lost business, we’ve had our best revenue month ever!

They came to me after working with a larger agency because…
Bespoke works
The website is the storefront. It should be as unique as the business is, and as quirky as the culture may be. The cookie-cutter Silver Plus plan just isn’t you!
Economical & effective
I work agile, micro project-to-project, making results-driven changes. I expect my work to pay for itself quickly, or gears must be shifted right away.
On-call & responsive
A website is never done! Most online stores need a capable developer who knows their store inside and out ready on-call. I’m a remote staff member.
Need help with your online store? Here’s what I can do for you…
Site Evaluation & Monitoring
I begin all projects with a quick site evaluation to become familiar with your site. I then setup monitoring scorecards – to see what needs improvement and how you compare to peers.
Online store maintenance
Stores must be kept up to date in order to receive full vendor support and to hold them each accountable to your success. I check for and carefully release updates on a weekly basis.
Custom web development Scopes
We could be cleaning up your existing code so it’s more compatible, adding custom functions, or even re-theming your entire site. I provide estimates and bill hourly.
On-call Service & Support
Who you gonna ping? – Sean! You’ll have an on-call Senior Web Developer at a fraction of the cost of a full-time staff member. Email or Slack message for mostly same-day replies.
Testimonials
Open-source migration done
My colleague hired Sean by referral of our previous developer. Sean migrated our online storefront from Big Commerce into WooCommerce. Then he replaced our theme from an older custom coded one to a modern builder framework that empowers staff. He’s also been supporting our eCommerce operations and integrations with various partners.
Jack H. Westlake Village, CA Client since May 2020
Super-charged & back on-track
Website development by an agency was costing too much and taking too long with too many problems along the way. Thankfully we found Sean, who quickly went through our site catching us up with software and server upgrades. Sean has added new contents per Canva designs while adapting our theme for the Block Editor that non-developer admins can help maintain visually. We’re thrilled to have competent help with our subscriptions site, which is rocking fast now!
Sirak K. Newport Beach, CA Client since December 2023
Faster & better automated
After working with an earlier developer I found myself with a slow and difficult to navigate website. Sean worked hard wrangling WooCommerce for my rentals business. While WooCommerce Subscriptions took some getting used to, I can say a year on that it’s been helping out by automating renewals and opening-up business channels via multiple product terms. My site is quite fast now without us having to change the original theme and hosting plan. Sean provides stellar technical support and has been working within budget by prioritizing tasks very well.

Redesign project redone right
I had a website redesign project take nearly a year and go poorly. The new site was nice looking, but it was incredibly slow, had too much fluff, was confusing search engines, and was a maintenance beast. Good thing my hosting service recommended Sean. He did some initial clean-ups then re-cut the site using the new WordPress Blocks and imported new inventories as well. It’s now lightning fast, easy to navigate, supports accounts and quotations morphing into orders, and has a better search system for our thousands of products and options.
Michael L. Shirley, NY Client since July 2022
Subscriptions & App support
Sean was referred to me by NerdPress back in November 2023 to assist with WooCommerce performance-related issues and supporting our custom web app and developer who interfaces with our website. We’re very satisfied with Sean’s maintenance and support services, as well as his help on some development projects. Everything is running much faster and we’re actually saving on costs at the same time. Sean is an invaluable resource for these kinds of online stores and we’re glad to have him on our team.
Jared E. North Salt Lake, UT Client since November 2023
Consolidated several sites
We had four separate websites (main, blog, shop, members) that all needed updating. Luckily we found Sean and in no time got them all consolidated into one powerful business website custom tailored to our needs. We look forward to continuing to add new features and streamlining operations with Sean’s expert help.
Kyle W. Simi Valley, CA Client since June 2021
Ongoing Support
Sean was referred to us by Grayson from iMark Interactive in April 2024. We needed an ongoing support relationship for problems that may arise and also help with the occasional project to improve our site as much as possible. We’ve been pleased with Sean’s expertise and professionalism in moving the site forward. We’d recommend him for similar projects.
Spencer K. Nashville, TN Client since April 2024
Resolved & Launched
Sean’s services and expertise have been instrumental in getting the ecommerce site for my new start-up off the ground. Facing the bewildering number of choices available to a store manager in WooCommerce can be daunting. Sean provides expert guidance on the entire WordPress/WooCommerce ecosystem, including recommendations on which extensions to use, which to avoid, and creating custom code when necessary to address specific needs. Very grateful that I found Sean after hearing him interviewed on the Do The Woo podcast – he has been a perfect fit for this project and is a great collaborator in every way. I look forward to continuing to work with Sean as the business grows and develops, and would enthusiastically recommend his services to anyone looking to get an eCommerce site to launch and beyond.

Older shop cleaned and restored
Our website was an older WordPress installation with an outdated theme in need of optimization, maintenance and small-medium scopes as they arise. I found Sean on the WP Engine Agency Partner Directory. We cleaned out a bunch of plugins and legacy code then re-themed the site. Things have been going great! The work has been well detailed and fast without being rushed. I really appreciate Sean and look forward to continuing to work together.

Cleanup & Redesign projects
I heard about Sean from his presentation at WooSesh. I’m happy that I reached out and got some advice about site cleanup and re-theming. Sean has been helping me separate layers of historic custom code from theme code in order to apply a fresh new design powered by WordPress Blocks while maintaining our system itself. I’m encouraged to see progress and accountability for the performance of my online store. We’re making something really powerful here — Big thanks to Sean for his expertise and availability.

Running smooth years on
We met Sean at a WooCommerce Meetup he presented at. He helped us get away from our giant custom coded theme and added features for us to keep up with operational changes and growth. Sean has served us for years now. His work ages remarkably well.
Alex D. Westwood, CA
Custom fitment engine
Our previous website was outdated and had problems with mobile responsiveness and current standards. We hired Sean to build a cost effective WooCommerce site to showcase our fifteen hundred products with tens of thousands of variations that pull from our custom inventory system. We implemented a new design and marketing tools for searching, packaging products and displaying order bumps. We’ve been pleased with the results and the continued support from Sean. We recommend him for projects like ours.
Peter H. Santa Fe Springs, CA
Launched new storefront
Our favorite website management company NerdPress recommended Sean for an eCommerce launch. He helped us launch a second website for our online store and also performed some upgrades and tweaks to our main website. We’ve had a great experience getting things done and expanding our online sales significantly.
Saba K. Atlanta, GA
Hosting overages fixed
We came to Sean when our hosting bill was running up and site performance was not good. Sean helped us reduce our plugin count by nearly half, performed several rounds of upgrades, and has been available for ongoing technical support. We’re happy to see progress being made as business continues to grow.
Jon K. Los Alamitos, CA
Project back on track
We had endless problems with a previous developer. We’re so happy to have found Sean. We got our WooCommerce store finished properly and it has been running smoothly for years now with minimal maintenance. He is always quick to answer any questions which arise with great patience and easy to understand explanations.
Rebecca O. Great Falls, VA
Expanded into eCommerce
My previous website developer recommended Sean to help me convert my gallery’s website into an eCommerce storefront that I own. Within reasonable cost we were able to get the job done while maintaining specific design requirements.
Joanna W. West Adams, CA
Cleaned & Improved
Our WooCommerce site was underperforming despite using premium hosting. Sean helped us figure out which plugins were wasting resources or producing errors. He cleaned-up our database and got object caching functional. He has also been helping us with various technical support items as they come up. We’re really pleased with Sean’s WooCommerce expertise!
Ben N. Borrego Springs, CA
Subscriptions site repaired
Our WooCommerce site was in dire straits running 88 plugins and things breaking or disappearing altogether. A recovery plan bombed in multiple ways, especially concerning subscriptions. Thankfully Sean quickly restored us to a stable database and core plugin set – a quarter of what we were running. From there we’ve been rebuilding and improving the site components piece by piece with new designs and the latest full-site-editing features. We recommend Sean for any business critical WooCommerce project.
Maia J. Lancaster, PA
Upgrades & improvements
We had a long list of updates for our consumer and dealer facing online stores. Sean helped us get through our lists within a month, which included migrating hosts, clearing out old files and plugins, modifying our invoices, and adding a custom payment method. The changes will definitely help us streamline our processes and reduce costs. We’re thankful for Sean’s expertise and look forward to working together in the future.
Christine H. Sherman Oaks, CA
Accountability restored
My old WordPress theme company went out of business. Sean was referred by an earlier developer and helped me upgrade my site and convert it to use a new theme while improving the design a bit. Things have been running smoothly and I’m thrilled to have competent technical support at the ready. His work is excellent and he is great and easy to work with.
Fredericke G. Park La Brea, CA
Fake orders no more!
I was having concerns about my WooCommerce store getting fake orders and plugins appearing out of date. On the recommendation of my website developer I hired Sean to check on things. In no time at all he brought our plugin count down by ten, which I previously thought was all clean. Plus I was unaware of several abandoned plugins. He found about a dozen areas of cleanup that I never knew existed. Now I really do have room for growth! Sean is definitely the person to come in and breathe new life into your long running WooCommerce site.
