For site owners whose WordPress installs have grown faster than their maintenance.

Most scanners tell you what's broken and leave you to fix it yourself. I run a read-only audit, hand you a prioritized report with a fixed-price quote, then fix the code and manage the plugins — every change shown to you for approval first, with your database backed up before anything is applied.

Get an Audit & Quote Our Trust Model

Turn the rot into a prioritized action list — then fix it.

I run a read-only audit across your WordPress install, classify every finding by real risk — not just "vulnerable plugin found" — and deliver a prioritized remediation report with a fixed-price quote:

  • ✔ Fix Today: Confirmed live vulnerabilities and abandoned critical plugins.
  • ✔ Fix This Week: Outdated themes and lower-impact issues with clear remediation.
  • ✔ Log and Ignore: Confirmed noise, inactive code, and cosmetic items.

The report isn't where it ends. I fix the code and manage the plugins — starting with the Fix Today items, every change shown to you for approval first. Your database is backed up before any change that affects it.

Page-builder breakage — Elementor or Divi layouts stored as data in your database, not code — is surfaced in the report. Where it's fixable, it's done under the same backup-first rule: backed up, reviewed, then applied.

No false-positive dump. No plugin to install. No changes you didn't approve.

Trust-First Access Model

Safe & Scoped Access

The audit is read-only. The easiest path: you grant read-only SSH and I pull the database dump and wp-content myself — no technical work on your end. Prefer to keep access closed for now? Send a database dump and wp-content zip and I'll audit from that. To remediate, I need SSH access to the site, and to your Git repository if you manage source there. All credentials are scoped, time-bound, and revocable by you at any moment.

A mutual NDA is signed before any access is granted.

The Backup-First Guarantee

Your database is backed up before anything changes, and every planned change — code or database — is reviewed with you before it's applied. Nothing reaches your live site without your approval, and nothing happens without a rollback path. Plugin updates, removals, and activations do affect your database; that's why the backup and review come first.
