Frequently Asked WordPress Support Questions

Who I Work With

Local, National & Global Businesses
Almost all businesses (including startups) are going to need some sort of online presence. People are searching for your product or service, you need to be easy to find in order to compete. I can work with you to remain competitive online and give valuable content to your audience.

Charities & Non-Profit Organisations
Most charities and non-profit organisations need help to stay ahead in the world of ‘Digital by Default’. Cuts to funding and demands on services make it challenging for charities to keep afloat digitally. I can oversee the digital aspects of your organisation so you can focus on delivering excellent services.

Bloggers & Individuals
So many people have side hustles alongside their regular jobs. This might be blogging, or even selling handmade items on Etsy, eBay or Amazon. I can help turn your hobby or side hustle into a profitable business!

Where are you based?

I mostly work from my home office in South Wales, or from co-working spaces across Caerphilly, Cardiff and Pontypridd. However, due to the nature of my work – I can work from anywhere! I’ve worked from Cairo, Chiang Mai, Lisbon and just about anywhere with WiFi!

What is the troubleshooting process?

Firstly, I rarely troubleshoot live sites for serious issues. I almost always take a backup and troubleshoot the site in my local environment, where I have a suite of tools that makes this task much easier.

Secondly, I will need access to your WordPress dashboard as an administrator and your hosting control panel in order to take a copy of your site.

Please ensure you have access to these details before getting in touch, I can provide instructions for most hosting providers if necessary.

Your website will not usually need to ‘go offline’ during the troubleshooting process (unless of course your website is already offline and that’s the problem!)

The only time I would make changes to a live site is if the issue is non-critical, in relation to content, settings or minor theme customisations.

After identifying the issue, determining the cause and testing a solution, the repaired website will be deployed back to its host.

WordPress issues can some complex and varying in nature, so there are multiple processes involved.

Communication will take place at every step to ensure you stay informed.

How long will it take for you to fix my issue?

Unfortunately this question is as difficult to answer as ‘How long is a piece of string?‘

It’s really difficult to give a precise timescale without scoping the issue, and even then there are many factors involved.

Most common issues can be fixed within 1-2 hours.

Can you help me migrate my site and/or move hosts?

Yes, please get in touch to discuss your specific hosting requirements.

What fees do you charge?

Fees are charged depending on the nature of the work with the lowest fee for fixing a very common issue with a popular WordPress plugin being around £40.00 + VAT.

Hourly fees are otherwise from £75.00 + VAT per hour if further scoping and investigation is needed.

There will never be any surprise fees, you will always know the cost upfront.

UK VAT is applicable.

Please get in touch for a no obligation chat.

Can you redesign existing websites?

Yes, I’m happy to review and improve existing WordPress websites and blogs where appropriate.

I need help with my website RIGHT NOW!

Stay calm and get in touch. Please don’t panic, there’s almost nothing in WordPress that can’t be fixed or restored!

If you don’t have a maintenance package, or your package doesn’t include support time, please do get in touch anyway as I may still be able to help without you.

What My Clients Say

A year ago, I had my original website redesigned by another developer, but it never fully reached my expectations. Sarah worked to improve the SEO performance, redesigned the contact information portal, and finessed the design throughout the site. I have seen a marked improvement in the referrals within a few weeks of the updates. And the contact portal works flawlessly now.

Sarah is a pleasure to work with and she even provided additional information above and beyond what she originally was contracted for. If I could give a 10-star review I would. I highly recommend Sarah.

Stewart

Creative Audio Works

The words that jumped out at me from Sarah’s website were “Let’s work together”. Our charity was looking for a supportive personal service from an individual, not the one-step-removed approach of many hosting services. The migration process was speedy, efficient and painless. Sarah has already spotted ways of making cost savings and improving the efficiency of our website. I feel more supported in maintaining and developing our website than I have for a long time.

Beth

Oral History Society

I have worked with Sarah on a number of website development projects. Sarah has a vast knowledge around website development, SEO and growing your online presence and is very thorough in successfully managing projects.

I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Sarah for any web and digital work, and look forward to working with her on future projects.
