Lethally effective web development

A better website starts with a clear mission.

I design, build and look after fast, dependable WordPress websites and WooCommerce stores. Custom where it matters. Practical where it doesn't. Direct communication from the first conversation through launch and ongoing support.

WHAT I DO

Start where your website needs help.

You may need a completely new website, a better version of the one you already have, or someone reliable to keep it running.

Custom websites

Build

Build the right solution for your business.

 

A new website, a full WooCommerce store or a rebuild of what you already have — scoped to your goals and content, not squeezed into a fixed package.

 

Common projects

  • Business and professional service websites
  • WooCommerce stores and online shops
  • Website redesigns and platform migrations
  • Custom WordPress functionality and integrations
  • Landing pages and campaign sites

 

Built around

  • Clear content structure, planned before design starts
  • A practical editing experience you can rely on
  • Performance and accessibility foundations, tested before going live
  • Final checks at launch, support after
  • Room to grow without a rebuild

A short discovery call is enough to tell you which of these fits your project.

What you can expect

Direct access.
Professional process.

You work directly with me from the first review to launch and ongoing support. Decisions stay close to the work, and responsibility remains clear throughout the project.

01

Direct contact

You speak with the person reviewing, building and maintaining the website. Technical questions do not need another handover.

02

Clear process

Each stage has a clear outcome, the information I need from you and a defined approval point before we move forward.

03

Appropriate scope

Not every project needs rebuilding. The recommendation is based on the problem, not the size of the project.

04

Ongoing support

When something changes months later, you already have someone who knows how the website was built.

CLIENT FEEDBACK

Trusted with websites people actually rely on.

I have worked with companies, creators, founders and e-commerce teams across three continents and 9+ countries. Though the projects differ in size and purpose, the expectations are consistent: reliable work, clear communication and a website that remains usable after launch.

OPTIMIZED BUILD PROCESS

A clear route from brief to launch — and beyond.

Five stages keep the project moving without turning it into paperwork. At each one, you know what is being decided, what I need from you, what you receive and what must happen before we move on.

01DISCOVERY

Understand the project.

We discuss what the website needs to achieve, who it is for, what exists today and what needs to be ready for launch. I review the available content, technical setup and relevant analytics before recommending a route forward.

You Provide

Business goals, available materials, relevant access and any fixed constraints such as budget or launch date.

You Receive

A recommended scope, project priorities, estimated cost and realistic timeline.

Goal

The scope, responsibilities, content status and timeline are agreed before design begins.

02DESIGN

Structure before decoration.

We plan the pages, user journeys and content hierarchy. For design-led projects, this is also where the visual direction and key screens are developed.

You Provide

Brand assets, available content and consolidated feedback from the people responsible for approval.

You Receive

An agreed structure, visual & UX direction and the key views or components needed for development.

Goal

The design direction is approved before the complete website is built.

03DEVELOPMENT

Build it properly.

I build the website in a private staging environment. Responsive behaviour, content editing, performance, integrations and the agreed functionality are tested as part of the build.

You Provide

Final content, integration access and consolidated feedback during the agreed review rounds.

You Receive

A complete working website on staging, ready for final review and approval.

Goal

The full build has passed internal QA and all launch-blocking feedback has been resolved.

04LAUNCH

Go live with the details checked.

After final approval, I move the website to production and complete the live checks. Forms, analytics, redirects, integrations and key user journeys are verified before handover.

You Provide

Final approval and any remaining launch-critical access or information.

You Receive

A live website, agreed access, handover materials and practical guidance.

Goal

The production website is verified, the handover is complete and the complimentary month of CORE Care Plan begins.

05CARE PLAN

Keep your website in good hands.

Every BUILD project includes one complimentary month of CORE Care Plan. Updates, backups, monitoring and the included development time begin immediately after launch.

You Provide

Any post-launch priorities, planned changes and the contact responsible for ongoing website decisions.

You Receive

30 days of CORE Care Plan — updates, backups, monitoring and one hour of development time — closing with your first monthly report.

Goal

Continue with the appropriate Care Plan or take over maintenance with a clear handover and no unresolved gap.

Have a project in mind — or a website that is becoming a problem?

Tell me what you are working with. I will suggest a sensible next step, whether that is a focused fix, an audit or a complete new build.

Care Plans

Your website still needs a developer after launch.

Updates, backups and monitoring are important, but ongoing care is also about context. When something needs changing, you have access to someone who already knows the website, its code and the decisions behind it.

Core

About me

Hi, I'm Jack
Granatowski

An independent WordPress developer based in Poland, working with clients internationally.

I have spent more than a decade building, improving and maintaining websites for businesses, e-commerce teams, creators and organisations. Some needed a completely custom platform. Others simply needed someone to take a stubborn technical problem off their hands.

Working independently means I stay close to every project: I know what was built, why it was built that way and what should happen next. Some of the websites I look after today I built years ago, and they keep working because nothing about them has to be rediscovered every time something changes.

I want to understand the problem before you commit budget to a solution.
You work with the person making the technical decisions and writing the code.
I build what the website needs, without adding complexity for its own sake.
Maintenance and future development stay with someone who knows the history.

FAQ

Questions I get asked a lot

Do you only build fully custom websites?

No. A custom build is useful when the project has specific design, performance or functionality requirements. For a smaller project, an existing website or a limited budget, an adapted foundation may be the better decision. I recommend the approach that fits the project rather than treating custom development as the only serious option.

Do you use a page builder or build from scratch?

I primarily use Bricks as the visual development layer, supported by custom PHP, JavaScript, CSS and ACF where required. This gives clients a practical editing experience without restricting the site to a fixed template or a library of prebuilt widgets. The exact approach depends on the project. Performance, maintainability and ease of use come first.

What technologies do you use?

My usual stack includes WordPress, WooCommerce, Bricks, ACF, PHP and JavaScript. For CSS, I often use SLASHED — an open-source framework I built. I adapt the stack when a project has different technical requirements. Every site is tested against Core Web Vitals and the performance targets agreed at the start of the project.

How much does a website cost?

A complete business website starts from $4,000. WooCommerce projects start from $6,000. The final price depends on design, content, functionality, integrations and the condition of any existing website. Smaller, clearly scoped work is available through audits, landing pages, focused development and hourly technical support.

How long does a project take?

Most focused business websites take approximately four to eight weeks once the required content, feedback and access are available. Larger WooCommerce stores, migrations and complex integrations are scheduled individually. You receive a realistic timeline before work begins.

What do you need from me to get started?

A short description of the project, your current website if you have one, available brand materials and an overview of your content. Reference websites are also useful, especially when you can explain what you like about them. You don't need to prepare everything before the first conversation. The process is structured so that the right materials are requested at the right stage.

Do you provide support after launch?

Yes. Every new build includes a 30-day bug warranty and one complimentary month of Care Core. After that, a Care Plan can cover software updates, backups, monitoring, fixes and ongoing technical support.

Can you fix or take over an existing WordPress site?

Yes. Existing sites usually start with an audit. I'll review the current setup, identify the main technical and performance issues, and recommend whether it makes sense to repair the existing build or replace it.

How do payments work?

Fixed-price projects are divided into milestone payments connected to the main phases of the project. Care Plans are billed monthly. Payment is available by bank transfer or PayPal, in the currency agreed for the project. I am VAT-registered in Poland; invoices to business clients outside Poland are issued under the reverse charge procedure where the conditions are met.

Can you work from a design created by someone else?

Can you work from a design created by someone else? Yes. I can develop a WordPress website from supplied Figma or other complete design files. Before quoting, I review the designs to identify responsive behaviour, missing states and technical questions.

Will I be able to edit the website myself?

Yes. The editing experience is planned around the people who will maintain the website. I avoid exposing unnecessary technical settings and provide practical instructions or training where agreed.

Can you help with a smaller issue on an existing website?

Yes. I take on focused repairs, improvements and clearly scoped development when the issue is within my area of work and the website can be accessed safely. Send the website address and describe what is happening. I will tell you whether it looks like a direct fix, needs an audit or would be better handled another way.

Do you guarantee a PageSpeed score?

Performance targets are agreed for the specific project and tested before launch. The final score can be affected by hosting, analytics, advertising scripts, external integrations and content added after launch. I explain what is slowing the website down, what can be improved and where the sensible limits are. A separate Performance Rescue service may include a conditional guarantee when defined in the written offer.
