I’m Michael Wood, a UK web developer helping businesses
build, improve and maintain websites and digital systems that
actually support the way they work.
I work directly with businesses across the UK on
WordPress, WooCommerce, bespoke PHP development,
CRM systems, customer portals, automation,
technical SEO, performance improvements,
analytics and ongoing website support.
No agency hand-offs. No unnecessary layers.
You work directly with the developer doing the work.
From a new website through to a bespoke internal platform, I focus on practical solutions that are fast, maintainable and useful to the business.
Fast, clear websites for businesses that need a stronger online presence, better lead generation and a site that is straightforward to maintain.
Web development ↗New builds, custom functionality, plugin work, troubleshooting, performance improvements and support for existing WordPress websites.
WordPress development ↗Ecommerce builds, checkout fixes, payment integrations, shipping logic, custom purchase journeys and improvements to existing WooCommerce stores.
Ecommerce development ↗Custom CRMs, dashboards, admin systems, customer portals and operational tools built around the way your business actually works.
CRM & dashboard development ↗Connect websites, forms, email, payments, APIs and internal workflows to reduce repetitive admin and make processes more reliable.
Automation services ↗Improve indexing, internal links, page structure, local targeting, Core Web Vitals, tracking and the technical quality of the website.
SEO services ↗Reduce plugin bloat, frontend overhead, oversized assets and poor loading behaviour to improve usability and Core Web Vitals.
Speed optimisation ↗Improve an existing website without automatically throwing everything away — cleaner structure, stronger UX, better performance and clearer calls to action.
Website redesign ↗Updates, fixes, content changes, troubleshooting, performance work and technical support without needing a full agency retainer.
Website maintenance ↗A lot of web projects become slower and more expensive because information passes through sales teams, account managers and multiple developers.
When you work with me, you speak directly to the person scoping, building and supporting the project. That makes it easier to explain problems, make decisions and get changes shipped.
I use established platforms where they make sense, and bespoke development where an off-the-shelf solution would create more limitations than it solves.
Business websites, content-managed sites, custom themes, plugin work and improvements to existing WordPress installations.
WordPress development ↗Online stores, custom checkout logic, payments, shipping, product workflows and ecommerce troubleshooting.
WooCommerce & ecommerce ↗Custom business systems, CRMs, portals, booking systems, dashboards and workflows that need more flexibility.
Bespoke systems ↗Broken forms, checkout failures, plugin conflicts, PHP errors, email problems, integration failures and unexpected behaviour can often be repaired without rebuilding the whole website.
Website rescue & bug fixes ↗Slow loading, poor mobile performance, oversized assets, plugin overhead and frontend problems can make a good website frustrating to use.
Speed optimisation ↗Spreadsheets, generic CRMs and disconnected tools can become difficult to manage as a business grows. A bespoke system can bring key workflows together.
CRM & automation ↗Weak page targeting, poor internal linking, indexing issues, bad performance and unclear site structure can hold useful pages back.
SEO services ↗Send me the website and explain what you want to improve. I can tell you whether it looks like a repair, redesign, development, performance, SEO or automation project.
Technical SEO recommendations often require actual development work: templates need changing, redirects need fixing, scripts need removing, landing pages need restructuring or tracking needs correcting.
I can identify the issue and implement the changes, rather than leaving you with an audit document that needs to be passed to another developer.
View SEO servicesMost development work can be handled remotely, so I work with businesses well beyond my local area. I also have dedicated regional pages where useful for businesses looking for a developer in a specific city.

Tell me what you need ↗Lead-focused websites, service pages, local landing pages, quote forms and business systems for trades and service companies.
Web design for trades ↗WooCommerce stores, payment workflows, delivery logic, product customisation, checkout improvements and integrations.
Ecommerce web development ↗Websites, booking workflows, CRM systems, customer portals, automation and lead management.
Service business CRM ↗Start with what the business needs, what is currently getting in the way and what a successful result looks like.
Keep the scope focused on functionality, reliability, usability and the outcomes the project actually needs to deliver.
The finished work should be easier to support and extend rather than creating a fragile system that causes problems later.
Whether you need a new website, a WordPress fix, a WooCommerce improvement, a bespoke CRM, automation, SEO work or ongoing development support, send me a short brief and I’ll take a look.
