WordPress Developer · Whanganui, NZ

Bespoke websites,
built to last.
Now wired for AI.

I'm Erin Gibson. Fifteen-plus years building fast, hand-coded WordPress sites that do exactly what they promise.

Get in touch See what I do

Fifteen years deep, and still curious.

I'm a Whanganui-based developer who has spent over fifteen years in the trade. I specialise in custom WordPress: not page-builder soup, but hand-built themes and clean code that load fast and hold up under real traffic.

I've shipped sites across dozens of industries, untangled servers at 2am, and learned that the best builds are the ones nobody has to think about. They just work.

These days I'm pointing that experience at AI, building automations and integrations that quietly handle the boring work so people don't have to.

What I'm good at.

A full-stack toolkit built over fifteen years. I can write the theme, fix the server, tune the performance, and still be the one you call for support.
