Thanks to the ubiquity of sites like Upwork and PeoplePerHour, it’s not very difficult to find someone who claims to have the skills to develop your WordPress website. They claim to be understanding WordPress, though they might not know everything you need to know about WordPress.
Since anyone can claim they have WordPress developer skills, you’ll need to figure out how you can hire the right developer to build your website.
Why Is Finding A Good Developer So Hard?
What WordPress Developer Skills Should You Look For?
In addition to key traits such as attention to detail, an understanding of HTML, CSS, PHP, Javascript, and MySQL, and experience working with the WordPress platform, you’ll also want to look for the following:
● The ability to effectively communicate in your language
● A willingness to respond during business hours in your time zone
● Projects that they’ve worked on, and proof that they were the ones who worked on them
● Testimonials from other clients talking about their work
One of the best ways to make sure that you get good results from your WordPress developer is to hire a WordPress development agency in your local area. Many of them use contract work, too, but they have systems in place to make sure they can provide good service to their clients.
