How Hiring Works

Hire a WordPress Developer in 6 Simple Steps

From sharing your requirements to your first sprint delivery - our hiring process is designed to get you working with the right WordPress developer as fast as possible, without compromise on quality.

01
Share Your Requirements

Tell us what you need - a theme, plugin, WooCommerce store, migration, or ongoing WordPress support. We review your brief, existing site (if any), and technical constraints before recommending the right developer profile.

02
Developer Matching in 24 Hours

We match your requirements against our vetted pool of WordPress developers and present 1–3 shortlisted profiles with skills, portfolio samples, and experience summaries relevant to your specific project needs.

03
Skills Alignment Call

A 30–60 minute technical call between you and the shortlisted developer - covering your stack, coding approach, plugin/theme philosophy, and working style. No commitment required until you are satisfied with the fit.

04
Onboarding in 48 Hours

Once you approve, the developer is onboarded to your project within 48 hours - access to your repo, staging environment, project management tool (Jira, Linear, Asana), and communication channels (Slack, Teams).

05
Agile Sprint Delivery

Development proceeds in 1–2 week sprint cycles with sprint demos, code reviews, staging deployments for your review, and a shared Kanban or sprint board. You maintain full visibility and control throughout.

06
Ongoing Support & Scaling

After launch, your developer continues on maintenance, new features, or performance work. You can scale the team up with additional developers or specialists, or hand off to your in-house team with full code documentation.

Client Results

What Our Clients Say

Trusted by digital agencies, eCommerce brands, publishers, and enterprise teams across the US, UK, and Australia.

★★★★★

We hired a dedicated WordPress developer from 1Solutions to rebuild our agency network on WordPress Multisite. The developer was senior-level, understood our complex taxonomy and user role requirements immediately, and delivered a production-ready platform 2 weeks ahead of schedule.

JT
James T.
CTO, Digital Agency (UK)
★★★★★

Our WooCommerce store was slow, losing mobile conversions, and had a messy plugin stack. The 1Solutions developer ran a full audit, refactored our theme, replaced 6 plugins with custom code, and got us to a 94 PageSpeed score. Revenue lifted 22% in the first month.

RM
Rachel M.
eCommerce Director, Retail Brand (US)
★★★★★

I needed a headless WordPress setup with Next.js for our media publication - fast editorial workflow and sub-second page loads. 1Solutions delivered the WPGraphQL backend and Next.js frontend in 10 weeks. Our Core Web Vitals went from red to green across the board.

We have been building WordPress sites, themes, and plugins since WordPress 2.x. Our developers have seen every version, every major architecture shift, and know the platform inside out.

Senior, Vetted Developers Only

Every developer goes through a multi-stage technical vetting process - PHP coding test, WordPress architecture review, plugin quality audit, and a live problem-solving session. No juniors placed on client projects without supervision.

WordPress Coding Standards Compliant

All code follows official WordPress Coding Standards for PHP, JavaScript, HTML, and CSS - ensuring your codebase is maintainable, reviewable, and compatible with the WordPress update lifecycle.

Full IP Ownership, Always

All code written by our developers is 100% your intellectual property from day one. We never retain rights to your theme, plugin, or site - and we hand over full source code and documentation at project end.

Transparent Communication

Daily standups, weekly sprint demos, shared task boards (Jira, Asana, Linear), and direct developer access on Slack or Teams. You always know what your developer is working on and what ships next.

US / UK / AU Timezone Coverage

Our WordPress developers offer 4–8 hours of daily overlap with US, UK, and Australian business hours. No chasing messages across timezones - real-time collaboration during your working day.

Everything you need to know about hiring expert WordPress developers from 1Solutions.

You can have a vetted WordPress developer ready to start within 48–72 hours. Once you share your project requirements, we match you with the right developer profile, conduct a brief skills alignment call, and onboard them to your project immediately after approval. For a dedicated team of multiple developers, the full team is typically assembled within one week.
Yes. Our WordPress developers have deep WooCommerce experience including custom theme development, product catalogue architecture, payment gateway integration (Stripe, PayPal, Razorpay, Authorize.net), subscription management via WooCommerce Subscriptions, multi-currency and multi-language stores, and performance optimisation for high-traffic WooCommerce sites. We have delivered WooCommerce stores processing over $10M in annual GMV.
Yes. Custom WordPress plugin development is a core specialisation. Our developers build plugins from scratch following WordPress coding standards, with proper hook and filter architecture, custom REST API endpoints, admin dashboard UI, and plugin update mechanisms. We also develop custom Gutenberg blocks (React-based), custom widgets, and shortcodes. All plugins are tested for compatibility with major WordPress versions and popular themes.
Yes. We develop headless WordPress architectures using the WordPress REST API and WPGraphQL as the content backend, paired with a React.js or Next.js frontend for a modern, high-performance JAMstack experience. This is popular for publishers, eCommerce brands, and enterprise sites that need both editorial flexibility and front-end performance. We handle the full stack including ISR/SSG configuration, media CDN setup, and WordPress preview mode.
We offer three models. Dedicated Developer: a full-time WordPress expert working exclusively on your project, billed monthly - ideal for ongoing development. Fixed Price: scoped deliverables at an agreed cost - ideal for a theme build, plugin, or migration. Hourly / Time and Material: billed on actual hours with weekly timesheets - ideal for audits, bug fixes, or sprint-based feature development. All models include daily communication and weekly progress reports.
Yes. We handle WordPress migrations from any source - Wix, Squarespace, Joomla, Drupal, Magento, Shopify, or a custom-built site. The process covers content migration (posts, pages, media, metadata), URL structure preservation with 301 redirects, SEO tag migration, user data transfer, and a staging-to-production cutover with zero downtime. We also provide a post-migration audit to verify content integrity and search ranking continuity.
Yes - our developers are experienced with Elementor Pro, Divi, Beaver Builder, Bricks Builder, and the native WordPress block editor (Gutenberg). For most client projects we recommend custom themes with the block editor or a lightweight framework for long-term maintainability, but we fully support page builder-based sites where your team requires it. We can also convert page builder sites to custom block-based themes.
Yes. All project deliveries include a 30-day post-launch support period. We also offer ongoing WordPress maintenance plans covering core, theme, and plugin updates, daily automated backups, uptime monitoring, security scanning, monthly performance reports, and developer support hours for content updates and minor feature additions. Support plans start with a defined monthly hour bank and SLA response time.
