π Hello DEV Community!
When I first started as a Freelance Web Developer, my goal was simple: write clean code and build beautiful websites. But I quickly realized a harsh truth in the freelance world: A stunning website is completely useless if nobody can find it on Google.
That realization changed my entire career trajectory. I stopped being just a "WordPress Developer" and became a Web Developer & Technical SEO Expert .
Today, I want to share the 3 core pillars of my freelance business and how I combine development with search engine visibility.
π» Pillar 1: Custom, High-Performance WordPress
I don't just install heavy, bloated themes. I believe in performance-first development.
The Dev Side: I build custom front-ends or use extremely lightweight foundations.β¦
