# Michael Weaver — WordPress for agencies

> Freelance white-label WordPress development for agencies, through one-off builds and monthly developer hours. Agencies work directly with Michael Weaver, the developer doing the work.

Michael works behind the scenes under your agency's brand. Your agency keeps the client relationship and presents the finished work under its own name. The business operates as WVRBRDS Limited, trading as Michael Weaver.

## WordPress development

- **Performance:** lightweight pages and tuning for Core Web Vitals.
- **SEO-friendly structure:** clear page structure designed to be crawled and indexed.
- **Accessibility best practices:** semantic HTML, keyboard access, readable text and clear contrast.
- **Multilingual websites:** support for multiple languages and language switching.

Development work includes new builds, new pages, custom features, performance improvements and fixes to existing websites. Routine plugin updates and hosting are outside the service.

## One-off builds

Projects are priced around an agreed brief. Scope, estimate and start date are confirmed before work begins. Development, testing and handover are included in the agreed scope; changes to the brief are quoted separately.

## Monthly developer hours

Agencies can reserve 10–40 development hours per month, in 10-hour blocks. The displayed prices use fixed rates for each currency rather than live exchange-rate conversions.

| Hours per month | Pounds sterling (GBP) | US dollars (USD) | Euros (EUR) |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| 10 | £450 | $600 | €540 |
| 20 | £900 | $1,200 | €1,080 |
| 30 | £1,350 | $1,800 | €1,620 |
| 40 | £1,800 | $2,400 | €2,160 |

- Hours are prepaid monthly.
- Unused hours expire at month-end and do not roll over.
- Development, project meetings and communication count toward the booked hours.
- Additional time is scoped and agreed before work starts.
- No VAT is charged.
