[See agency collaboration ↓](#hruk-agency) 03 / EXISTING SITE ### A project needs a fresh pair of eyes Something is broken, unfinished or difficult to maintain. Start with a review of the actual site and code, then agree the next useful change. [Describe the problem ↗](https://maksut.net/contact/?svc=WordPress&intent=hire-wordpress-developer#contact-form) HOW WE WORK TOGETHER ## You can see *where the work stands.* One named developer, a written plan and review points that fit your team. Decisions and scope changes stay visible throughout the project. 1. 01 ### Brief and fit Share your site, desired change, target date and budget. We clarify the requirements and whether investigation is needed first. 2. 02 ### Proposal and milestones Agree deliverables, price, responsibilities, feedback rounds and support coverage. Confirm availability before setting the start date. 3. 03 ### Build and review Review the agreed work on staging. Check it against real content and workflows, with progress updates at the agreed cadence. 4. 04 ### Launch and handover Run the agreed release checks and hand over source access, dependency notes and guidance. Record who handles future changes. FOR UK & EUROPEAN AGENCIES ## Your client relationship. *A clear delivery role.* Bring the approved design, technical brief or backlog. We agree where I fit into your team, how reviews happen and how work reaches your client. [Discuss agency support ↗](https://maksut.net/contact/?svc=WordPress&intent=hire-wordpress-developer#contact-form) ### Communication agreed upfront Your project lead stays informed. Client contact, tools and meeting windows are agreed before kickoff. ### White-label and confidentiality Share NDA and presentation requirements early. Agree how the work is credited and what can appear in a portfolio. ### A handover your team can use Define repository access, review responsibilities, launch ownership and the notes needed for your team to continue. COST, SCOPE & AVAILABILITY ## Agree the work. *Then agree the price.* UK projects receive a GBP proposal. Cost follows the actual requirements, existing code, integrations and handover needs. Timing also depends on content readiness and review turnaround. [Request a scoped proposal ↗](https://maksut.net/contact/?svc=WordPress&intent=hire-wordpress-developer#contact-form) ### A defined project A fixed quote for an agreed scope, with milestones, dependencies and a process for approving changes. ### Investigation first When the cause or effort is unclear, agree the purpose, fee and output of a focused review before committing to a build. ### Repeat development work Discuss a prioritised queue and available capacity. Agree delivery and support expectations for that arrangement. BEFORE YOU COMMIT ## Explore the work. *Ask about the decisions.* Public products and documentation give you something concrete to inspect. For your brief, we can discuss relevant implementation choices and how the work would be checked.

BEFORE WE TALK ## Questions about *working together.* **Are you based in the UK?** I am based in Istanbul and work remotely with UK and European businesses and agencies. Calls, review times and launch windows are agreed around working-day overlap. Suitable projects from other countries are welcome. **How much does it cost to hire you?** I quote in GBP for UK projects after reviewing the brief and current site. A defined build can receive a fixed project quote. If the problem needs investigation first, that work is scoped and priced separately before it begins. The proposal records deliverables, dependencies, payment milestones and support coverage. **Can you work under our agency brand?** White-label collaboration can be arranged. Before work starts, we agree who talks to the client, where work is reviewed, how code is delivered and what can be shown publicly. Share any NDA requirements with the brief so they can be reviewed before confidential project material is exchanged. **Can you take over an unfinished WordPress project?** Yes, subject to reviewing its current state. Share the site, known issues, existing scope and available documentation. I check the theme, plugins, hosting and code before recommending a focused repair, staged continuation or rebuild. Access and any paid investigation are agreed first. **What will I receive at handover?** The proposal defines the source code or repository access, deployment notes, dependency and licence list, and editor guidance needed for the agreed work. We also record account ownership, support responsibilities and any third-party restrictions so your team or another developer can continue. **How do you handle changes during a project?** Progress is reviewed against the agreed scope on staging. A new requirement is assessed for cost, dependencies and timing before it is added. You can approve a change, swap a planned item or keep it for a later phase. Decisions are recorded in writing. **When can you start and how long will it take?** Send your target date with the brief. I confirm availability and a realistic schedule after reviewing the work, content readiness, integrations and your review process. The proposal sets milestones and dependencies; a start date is confirmed when the scope is agreed. **Can I hire you for ongoing work?** A repeat development arrangement can be scoped around an agreed queue and available capacity. Routine updates, backups and monitoring belong in a care plan. Ongoing technical SEO, content and enquiry improvements belong in a separate SEO engagement. Support hours and response expectations are agreed for each arrangement. **How can I assess whether you are the right developer?** Start with the public products and documentation linked on this page. Bring a specific problem and ask about the implementation, trade-offs and checks it needs. We can review relevant work together and define a small first milestone where that is useful. LET'S START WITH YOUR BRIEF ## What do you need *to move forward?* Send your URL, the change you need, budget range and target date. I will review the brief and outline a suitable next step.
