### WordPress engineers who write code, not just configure it

 Every developer we place builds with hooks, custom plugins, and the block editor. They write code that works cleanly with WordPress core, survives updates, and gives your team a codebase they can extend and maintain over time.



### Matched to what your site actually needs

 A developer building a headless WordPress backend with WPGraphQL is a different hire from one maintaining a [WooCommerce](https://www.krishaweb.com/woocommerce-developer/) store. We match on your site’s real stack, its architecture, and its complexity, so the developer you get is genuinely right for the work.



### A team member inside your workflow

 Your expert WP specialist attends your standups, joins your Slack, and works directly in your repository. They manage plugin updates in staging before anything goes to production, flag security advisories as they come up, and take ownership of your site’s technical health.



### Your code and IP, fully protected

 We sign NDAs before work begins. Every theme, plugin, and script belongs to you from the first commit. We work inside your repository throughout the engagement and deliver complete documentation when the project wraps.

### We start with your requirements

 Every engagement starts with a direct conversation about your stack, your team, and what you need built. Specific to your project, built around your context.



### We match to your exact stack

 Every developer we send is matched to your WordPress version, your plugin stack, your theme setup, and your industry before a single profile reaches you.



### We vet before you meet anyone

 Every developer passes three stages: a production build assessment, a live architecture review, and a real codebase audit. You only meet developers who’ve cleared all three.



### You talk directly to your developer

 Your developer is in your Slack, your standups, and your repo from day one. Direct access, always.



### We replace quickly when needed

 If you want to change your developer within the first 30 days, we will replace them at no extra cost. The replacement is briefed on your site and contributing before your roadmap loses momentum.



### We Protect Your Code and Your Client Relationships

 NDAs are signed on day one. All code written belongs to you. We work inside your repository and hand over complete documentation at every project milestone so your team always has full visibility into what has been built.



### We Stay Accountable to Your Deadlines

 Your developer operates inside your sprint cycle, attends your reviews, and tracks against your delivery milestones. Progress reporting happens weekly and you receive it without having to ask. Your timelines matter as much to us as they do to you.



### We scale with your workload

 Ramping up for a launch or pulling back in a quieter quarter? Your engagement adjusts to your roadmap without starting a new hiring process.

       1

### Tell us about your site

 A requirements call. We ask about your WordPress version, your plugin stack, your theme setup, and what you actually need built.

   2

### We shortlist your developers

 Two to three profiles with WordPress-specific portfolio samples and current availability, delivered within 48 hours.

   3

### You meet the developers

 Interview directly. Plugin architecture, hook usage, block editor depth, and performance approach. You choose who joins.

   4

### Your developer joins your team

 In your GitHub, your project tool, and your Slack within one week. Plugin review and first sprint begin straight away.



## We Build on the Block Editor
Every new WordPress build we start uses the native block editor with custom block patterns and custom blocks. Elementor, Divi, and WPBakery produce significantly larger CSS and JavaScript payloads than block-based themes. They lock your content into plugin dependency and create an upgrade risk on every WordPress core update. When your page builder plugin stops being maintained or breaks on a major release, the rebuild cost is real.

If your existing site runs on a page builder and you need work done on it, we do that work. But every new project starts on the block editor. If you want to understand what a migration from a page builder to the block editor would cost and deliver for your site, that conversation starts on the requirements call.

### Block Editor & theme.json

Custom block patterns and theme.json configurations that give your content team publishing independence. Editors can update layouts and content without a developer for every change.

  Gutenberg Block Patterns theme.json ACF Blocks Full Site Editing

### Custom Post Types and REST API

Custom content models built around how your team actually publishes. Each post type and taxonomy designed for your editorial workflow from the ground up.

  CPTs  Taxonomies  WP REST API register_rest_route() ACF

### Headless WordPress and WPGraphQL

WordPress as the editorial backend, Next.js as the public-facing frontend. The right choice when performance requirements exceed what a traditional theme can deliver. Our developers have verified headless project history, not just theoretical knowledge.

  WPGraphQL Next.js Faust.js  ISR  Preview Mode

### Performance and Core Web Vitals

Conditional asset loading, image optimisation, and caching configuration. Treated as build requirements and measured before launch, with Query Monitor used to catch slow queries before they reach production.

  Lighthouse  Query Monitor Redis  WP Caching WebP / srcset

### Security and Plugin Maintenance

Plugin updates are tested in staging before production. Security advisories reviewed on release. A dependency cycle your team can trust, and your clients can rely on.

  Plugin Audits CVE Monitoring 2FA  File Permissions OWASP

### WooCommerce and eCommerce

WooCommerce custom plugins, payment gateway integrations, and HPOS migrations. Built to WooCommerce’s hook system so every customisation survives a core update.

## Frequently Asked Questions

We hope these questions and answers help you find the WordPress Hiring Solution partner for your business.

  - <button class="accordion-button " data-bs-target="#faq_1" data-bs-toggle="collapse" type="button"> How quickly can I hire a WordPress developer through KrishaWeb? </button>From your requirements call to your developer’s first commit in your WordPress repository: five working days. Developer profiles are delivered within 48 hours of the requirements call. Once you confirm your selection, the IP agreement and NDA are signed and repository access is set up within two working days. For organisations with an urgent WordPress situation such as a site down, a broken plugin, or a live security issue, contact us directly and we will tell you whether an emergency response engagement is available.
      - <button class="accordion-button collapsed" data-bs-target="#faq_2" data-bs-toggle="collapse" type="button"> What's the difference between hiring through KrishaWeb versus Upwork? </button>Upwork gives you access to a large pool of freelancers self-categorised as WordPress developers, with client review signals and platform escrow. The vetting is self-reported and covers general web development competency rather than WordPress-specific capability. KrishaWeb’s three-stage vetting process is built around the WordPress-specific skills that determine whether code is maintainable and update-safe: hook system knowledge, plugin architecture quality, block editor depth, and security implementation. For a clearly defined short project with a simple brief, a vetted Upwork freelancer may be appropriate. For a dedicated developer working in your WordPress site week after week, the specificity of the vetting makes a real difference to the quality of what gets built.
      - <button class="accordion-button collapsed" data-bs-target="#faq_3" data-bs-toggle="collapse" type="button"> Do your WordPress developers build with page builders or the block editor? </button>We build on the WordPress block editor with custom block patterns and custom blocks. Page builders such as Elementor, Divi, and WPBakery produce significantly larger CSS and JavaScript payloads than block-based themes. They also create content lock-in that makes future theme changes expensive and introduces plugin dependency risk on every WordPress core update. For clients with existing page builder sites who need work done without a full rebuild, we do that work. Every new build starts on the block editor. If your existing site is on a page builder and you want to understand what a rebuild would cost and deliver, that conversation starts on the requirements call.
      - <button class="accordion-button collapsed" data-bs-target="#faq_4" data-bs-toggle="collapse" type="button"> Can your developers work on a headless WordPress setup? </button>Yes. We have developers with WPGraphQL, REST API, and Next.js App Router experience for sites using WordPress as a headless content backend. Headless WordPress requires specific knowledge: how WordPress’s data model maps to a GraphQL or REST API surface, how to configure WPGraphQL to expose ACF fields and custom post type data correctly, and how to build a Next.js frontend with server components, ISR, and editorial preview mode. We match headless WordPress requirements to developers with verified headless project history because the headless implementation is a meaningfully different development surface from standard WordPress theme development.
      - <button class="accordion-button collapsed" data-bs-target="#faq_5" data-bs-toggle="collapse" type="button"> How do you handle WordPress and plugin security updates? </button>For sites on a dedicated or retainer engagement, your developer monitors WordPress’s release schedule and reviews every security advisory against your site’s specific plugin stack before any update reaches production. WordPress security advisories rated critical are patched in staging and validated within 24 to 48 hours of publication. Minor WordPress and plugin updates run on monthly cycles after staging validation. Every update goes through a staging environment that mirrors your production setup before it is applied to your live site. A staging-first update workflow is standard practice on every KrishaWeb WordPress engagement because an untested plugin update that breaks a form or a custom function costs far more to recover from than the staging test takes.
      - <button class="accordion-button collapsed" data-bs-target="#faq_6" data-bs-toggle="collapse" type="button"> Can your developers migrate our site from another platform to WordPress? </button>Yes. We migrate sites to WordPress from Wix, Squarespace, Webflow, Drupal, Joomla, and custom-built CMS platforms. Every migration includes content migration for pages, posts, and media; URL redirect mapping generated from a full site crawl and validated against Google Search Console data to protect organic search equity; SEO metadata transfer; and 30 days of post-migration monitoring for 404 errors, ranking changes, and content integrity issues. We assess the source platform’s content model against WordPress’s content model in the requirements phase and identify any content types that need custom migration logic before committing to scope and timeline.
      - <button class="accordion-button collapsed" data-bs-target="#faq_7" data-bs-toggle="collapse" type="button"> What happens if a plugin update breaks our site after you place a developer? </button>For sites on a dedicated engagement or a retainer, plugin updates are tested in staging before production deployment. A plugin update that breaks something in staging is caught before it reaches the live site. For sites where an update is applied outside the regular cycle and creates an issue, your developer responds during business hours on the same day. For sites where a break occurs because an update was applied outside our engagement scope, we provide emergency response as a paid engagement and diagnose the root cause. The most reliable protection against plugin update incidents is a staging-first update workflow, which is standard on every KrishaWeb WordPress engagement.
      - <button class="accordion-button collapsed" data-bs-target="#faq_8" data-bs-toggle="collapse" type="button"> How much does it cost to hire a dedicated WordPress developer through KrishaWeb? </button>As a planning reference, mid-level WordPress developers with solid plugin architecture, block editor, and performance experience typically fall in the $1,800 to $3,000 per month range for a full-time engagement. Senior WordPress developers with headless WordPress and WPGraphQL experience, complex custom plugin development history, or a track record on high-traffic enterprise WordPress sites typically range from $3,000 to $4,800 per month. Part-time engagements are priced proportionally. Project-based engagements are scoped per project after a requirements call. A transparent rate card goes out on the requirements call with no range estimates that expand once work begins.
