01 · The challenge

The firm’s old WordPress site ran on a different theme. The owner wanted a new design and a clearer layout, and asked me to lead the design. A few months after launch he raised a second problem: the site scored poorly for loading speed.

02 · The solution

  1. March 2024: planned the page structure from design references the owner liked.
  2. Built the new site on a staging copy, so the old one stayed live until the new one was ready.
  3. 27 August 2024: the new site went live and replaced the old one.
  4. September to November 2024: a blog with category filters, service pages for common tax problems and their solutions, and forms that reach the firm’s inbox.
  5. February 2025: speed work, after the owner’s report of low loading-speed scores.

03 · The results

  • 5.0 “Best website I’ve ever had.” The owner’s review on Upwork, January 2026.
  • 85 Google PageSpeed score on phones and on desktop (12 Nov 2026). On desktop the main content shows in 0.7 s, and nothing jumps while the page loads.
  • 2½ years of work together, May 2023 to January 2026: the redesign first, then new pages, the blog and the speed fixes.
