About

Senior dev in the weeds — zero page-builder bloat

I’m Zain Saeed — a senior WordPress and Shopify developer based in Pakistan, working with US, UK, UAE and global clients. You get direct communication, honest timelines, and production-grade builds without bloated page builders.

Over the last eight years I’ve shipped 120+ projects across artists, recruiters, education businesses, automotive shops, maritime corporations and film platforms — everything from quick Astra builds to custom WooCommerce flows and Shopify Liquid sections. The work is calm, opinionated and revenue-aware: I don’t just build pages, I build the path from a visitor to a quote, a booking, or a checkout.

How we work together

From first message to live site

A simple four-step process designed to remove friction, surface scope early, and keep the conversation moving.

  1. 01

    Brief

    You send what you need — goals, references, deadline. I reply within 24h with questions, not a generic templated quote.

  2. 02

    Scoped quote

    Fixed price, fixed timeline, deliverables in writing. No retainer trap, no surprise scope creep mid-build.

  3. 03

    Build & preview

    You see real progress weekly on a staging URL. Feedback rounds are baked in — not billed extra.

  4. 04

    Launch & after

    DNS, SSL, analytics, search console. I’m on call after launch and provide a clean handover doc for your team.

Why work with me

Senior dev, agency-grade work — without the agency price tag

Agencies

Big invoice, layers of overhead

  • You talk to an account manager, not the dev
  • 3× the cost for similar production quality
  • 6-week kickoff before a line of code ships
Working with me

Senior dev, zero overhead

  • Direct WhatsApp / Slack with the person coding
  • Honest timelines, fixed quotes, no scope creep
  • Production-grade code — zero page-builder bloat
Cheap freelancers

Low rate, high risk

  • Junior skill — patchy code, brittle launches
  • Hard-to-maintain themes built on free plugins
  • Goes quiet the day after the site goes live

“One of the best web designers on Fiverr, period. Fast, reliable, and genuinely cares about conversion.”

FAQ

Common questions

How fast can you start?

Most engagements start within a few days of you signing off the quote. For tight launches I’ll re-shuffle and start sooner — just tell me the deadline up front.

How do payments work?

50% to start, 50% at launch is the default for fixed-price builds. For longer engagements I bill in milestones tied to deliverables. Wire, Wise, and crypto all welcome.

Do you work with agencies?

Yes — about a third of my work is white-label for agencies. NDAs are fine, and I happily ship under your brand and process.

What happens after launch?

I include 30 days of post-launch support free, then optional care plans if you want ongoing maintenance. You can also hand the codebase off cleanly to any other dev — no lock-in tricks.
