Anne! My goodness, how I needed someone like you to work on my project. I'm a one-man team, and all the design ideas I have are my own, so I was bound to come up with a few I didn't like. And I had to troubleshoot issues either by myself or with a kind, communicative, intelligent designer like Anne. Thank you so much for what you've done for Independent Book Review. It means the world.
Common questions
Email me with the URL and what happened. I reply within one business day, and I schedule urgent rescues ahead of planned work.
I take a full backup of files and the database before touching anything, so the site can always be returned to where it was.
Usually a WordPress admin login and hosting access. I'll send a simple checklist, and I recommend creating separate accounts for me that you can remove later.
The usual causes are oversized images, too many plugins, a heavy page builder, no caching, and underpowered hosting. A Speed Sprint measures which of these matter on your site and fixes those first.
Often, yes. I work with Elementor, Divi, Beaver Builder, and the block editor, and I'll tell you honestly if a rebuild would cost less than a repair.
