WordPress Development Services
Custom WordPress development for businesses and agencies that have outgrown templates and page builders. Plugins, WooCommerce, headless builds, and performance work. 14 years in WordPress. 31 years engineering for the web.
Custom WordPress Plugins
AI integrations, webhooks, outbound API syncs, scheduled automations, custom REST endpoints, and admin tools. Functionality WordPress and the major plugins don't ship with -- or where no plugin exists at all.
WooCommerce Development
Subscriptions, payment integrations, store credit, loyalty programs, and performance work.
Custom Integrations
Shipping and fulfillment platforms, email marketing tools, e-commerce analytics, ad attribution and conversions APIs, CRMs, and lead routing.
Headless WordPress
WordPress as a content API behind any modern front-end -- static site generators like Hugo, JavaScript frameworks like Next.js, or native apps.
Performance & Security
Query optimization, caching strategy, and security hardening.
One Engineer, Start to Finish
WordPress projects fail when they get handed off. The plugin developer doesn’t talk to the theme developer. The agency PM doesn’t understand the database. Custom code gets bolted onto core in ways that break with the next update.
Every 84EM engagement is handled directly by a principal engineer. The same person scopes the work, writes the plugin, debugs the slow query, and hands it off with documentation that future developers won’t curse you for.
What We Build in WordPress
Custom WordPress Plugin Development
Purpose-built plugins coded to WordPress standards. AI integrations, webhooks, outbound API calls, scheduled automations, custom REST endpoints, role-based workflows, and admin tools. The kind of functionality WordPress and the major plugins don’t ship with – or where no plugin exists at all. Proper escaping, sanitization, capability checks, and nonce verification on every input.
WooCommerce Development
Subscriptions, payment integrations, store credit, loyalty programs, and performance work. Integrations that survive WooCommerce updates.
Custom Integrations
Connecting WordPress and WooCommerce to the platforms a business already runs on – shipping and fulfillment systems, email marketing platforms, e-commerce analytics, ad attribution and conversions APIs, CRMs, and lead routing tools. Webhooks, scheduled syncs, and middleware that handle real-world edge cases.
Headless WordPress
WordPress as a content API behind any modern front-end – static site generators like Hugo, JavaScript frameworks like Next.js, or native apps. Editorial workflow stays familiar; the front-end gets faster, cheaper, and more flexible to host.
Performance & Security
Query optimization, caching strategy, and security hardening. Slow query analysis with concrete fixes – not generic plugin recommendations.
How WordPress Projects Run
Discovery & Scoping
Direct conversation with the engineer who builds it. Requirements, hosting environment, plugin compatibility, and a project plan with concrete deliverables.
Architecture
The right approach for your stack. WordPress core conventions where they fit. Custom architecture where they don't. Hooks, filters, REST endpoints, and database design that respects WordPress patterns.
Development & Testing
Built to WordPress coding standards with proper escaping, sanitization, capability checks, and nonce verification. Automated and manual testing throughout.
Documentation & Handoff
Code documentation, deployment instructions, and direct knowledge transfer. Same principal engineer who built it -- 31 years of experience on the same line.
