29+ years of experience in web development and web hosting and SEO
Building a website is easy. Doing it correctly is not.
Some of the many “possible” messy website scenarios that I can clean up:
A web designer convinces you to pay them big $$$ for a “pretty website”
You pay the website designer big $$$ for your “pretty website” then hope & pray it works out
Usually: Your pretty WordPress website gets little to no organic/free traffic – SEO = organic/free traffic
Sometimes the pretty website designer suggests you pay for Google/Facebook ads to get traffic = pay more $$$
Changes to the “pretty website” are dependent on the web designer which means submitting change requests = pay more $$$
Maybe the animations and graphics on your “pretty website” slow your website down resulting in a bad user experience and/or SEO rankings
According to a study by Ahrefs, 91% of all content gets no traffic from Google. This means that even well-designed WordPress sites often fail to attract organic visitors without proper SEO.
Domain name:
You hired/paid a 3rd party to register your domain name, and they disappeared!
You paid a “Domain Registry” company to renew your domain name
You paid a “Domain Listings” company to renew your domain name
Improper security on your WordPress website and/or webserver (website hosting) resulting in getting hacked
Lack of SSL
Outdated PHP code
Compromised database
Outdated plugins, etc.
Your WordPress website was hacked!
You hired a “marketing company” and they:
Ruined your Google analytics
Convinced you to redesign your website using an outdated platform/technology
Convinced you to go with a “cheaper” or a “better known” web hosting company and now your website doesn’t look or work properly
Used a developer who had experience in a different platform, but ended up ruining your WordPress site
Cheap web hosting plans that cost 4X-8X as much after the 1st year
1st year cheap web hosting = $3.99 per month
2nd year not so cheap web hosting = $49.99 per month
3rd year definitely not cheap web hosting = $69.99 per month
Slow, sluggish performance
NO security, theme, plugin updates = potential for hacking/crashing your website
LIMITED/NO SUPPORT when you have issues = pay more $$$
Now you have to pay extra for a “maintenance plan”
DIY gone wrong – doing it yourself to “save money” sounds great until you run into issues that take more time to solve than it’s worth
Shopify – “Start for free, then… $$$”
Squarespace – “Free for 14 days”
Building a website is easy. Doing it correctly is not.
You, or someone on your team used AI – ChatGPT, Claude, Copilot to figure out how to make changes on a website – aka: “how hard can it be?” and the site is now messed up or worse: broken.
A survey by Clutch found that nearly 30% of small businesses that built their own websites reported poor performance or functionality issues, often requiring professional intervention later.
SEO – someone convinced you that they were an “SEO expert”
Now your website is nowhere to be found on the search engines
or… worse: now your website is banned from search engines!
You hired someone to import product data into your WordPress website and now you have products showing up that don’t make sense
WooCommerce data feeds/imports are tricky and if not done properly—can and will cause you headaches later
I can cleanup WooCommerce data feed imports so that your website is customer friendly and SEO friendly
GTIN/UPC – Google Merchant Center importing and more
You found someone on a well-advertised & marketed “freelance” website, and they created a mess on your website
When your current website situation doesn’t work out for you (due to lack of sales, lack of support, product issues, website errors, security concerns, etc.) – contact Ron the Web Guy (aka: website janitor for hire) to clean up the mess created by the “pretty website” designer or “marketing company“.
