Creating lightweight, fast and secure themes; virus removal, bug fixes and performance improvements; hosting and migration. I work as a WordPress consultant and programmer!
“WordPress programmer” is a bit of a… strange term, don’t you think? Well, it’s been used a lot to describe this type of job, just like “WordPress developer”.
Because WordPress is one of the most popular platforms in the world, some professionals work exclusively with it.
This is not my case, since I meet many new zealand number dataset types of demands – I am also a web designer and front-end developer , in addition to providing hosting consultancy . But most of my work is in WordPress, so I can label myself as a programmer, developer or WordPress consultant.

If WordPress programming is already done, what does a WordPress programmer do?
Well, a WordPress programmer masters the platform, not just installing WordPress, ready-made templates and plugins.
Those who work with WordPress programming are also responsible for developing themes , plugins, and other resources to customize WP as much as possible ( without changing the “core” of the thing, of course).
Some examples of what a WordPress developer does:
Installation and configuration of WordPress on the server (hosting);
Installation, configuration, customization and theme creation:
Installation, configuration and customization of ready-made themes or
Creation of customized themes according to the client's needs
Creation of child themes;
Plugin installation, configuration and development:
Installation and configuration of ready-made plugins or
Custom plugin development
Programming specific tools and features for your project;
Consultancy:
Start to finish of the project (which pages to create, theme and plugins to use, where to host, etc.)
Analysis for performance, usability, security and design improvements
SEO ( on page , usually);
Support and maintenance:
Updates (WordPress, plugins and themes)
Bug fixes
Removal of viruses, malware and malicious scripts in general
Cleaning and optimizing files, plugins, scripts, etc.
Backups
Hosting migration (in some cases, provision of WordPress-optimized hosting )
Translation of plugins and themes.
To avoid any doubts, I will explain in more detail what each thing is:
What are themes?
These are models, templates for WordPress. It is the entire look and structure of a website, as if it were already ready – you just need to install it in your project and start publishing your content.
