Hi. I’m Barbara
Let me solve your thorniest tech problems, and you’ll be a hero to your website clients.
I am a WordPress troubleshooter and coach with a focus on solving tech problems for digital agencies, web designers, and virtual assistants.
WordPress Troubleshooter
My skills are technical. I’m handy with PHP, CSS, and HTML. I have a B.S. in Information & Computer Science from University of California, Irvine that I got so long ago (1976), you’re probably surprised that we even had computers back then! I can make your site run better, faster, and abolish thorny problems. I can solve problems created by updates, or perform updates in a safe fashion.
I can solve a variety of WordPress problems including those related to:
- themes and plugins
- error messages, PHP errors, or the white screen (of death!)
- HTTPS implementation
- WooCommerce, Wishlist Member, Easy Digital Downloads, AppPresser and more
- email and server issues
- creating automated backups and/ or restoring backups
- moving old PHP code to PHP 7.x
- moving to a new host or changing domain names
WordPress Support Plan for Web Designers
Need a back-end tech troubleshooter to solve thorny problems, and a sidekick to bounce ideas around with? Then you are my ideal client! I love working with other WordPress professionals. My monthly WordPress Support Plan for Web Designers provides email support and up to an hour of hands-on problem solving. Additional time is available as needed at a 10% discount.
WordPress Maintenance Plans
I provide three different WordPress maintenance plans that include updates, backup, and security scans.
WordPress Site Audit
I will review your site’s SEO, security, HTTPS implementation, mobile-friendliness, plugins, structure, content, hosting, and performance. The audit will include a first pass at improving your site, and provide a roadmap (with pricing) for further improvement. We will review the items via a video conference, and you will be able to prioritize and choose which roadmap items you want me to implement. The site audit includes 1 month of Maintenance Plus.
What I Don’t Do
I’m not a graphic designer. If you are not a designer either, and you’d like me to spearhead your new website, I will work with a professional Web Designer to create your site design.
Let’s chat! You can contact me by filling out the short form below, or scheduling a free 15-minute discovery call, or calling me at 858-793-8300. (They will answer Pioneer Security. Just ask for me!) ~~ Barbara J. Feldman
Testimonials, Reviews, and Comments
Barbara didn’t talk a different language, like some tech-support people
I was doing an update to my website and was stuck. I’m not a very tech-savvy person, and a friend had recommended I call Barbara. She was very friendly and… “Barbara didn’t talk a different language, like some tech-support people”
Barbara is Outstanding!
Barbara was on time, on budget, and hit the bullseye. She could literally write the book titled, “How to be a complete WordPress resource from A to Z.” Her professionalism,… “Barbara is Outstanding!”
