You talk to the developer
No account manager and no ticket queue. The person who writes the code is the person who answers the question, which is why answers are usually the same day.

Overview
Freelance web development in Koramangala
Koramangala is where a lot of Bangalore businesses start. Small teams, early products, a brand that is still being argued about – and a website that has to look established before the company is.
That shapes the work. Early-stage sites need to go live quickly, look credible to customers and investors, and stay cheap to change while the product is still moving. Building one on a rigid theme is how a company ends up paying twice: once for the site, and again six months later when it cannot be changed without a developer.
So I build on WordPress with the editing in mind. Your team changes copy, adds pages and publishes posts without raising a ticket. When a funding round or a rebrand comes, the structure moves with you instead of being thrown away.
The other half of the work here is older businesses that are not startups at all – clinics, restaurants, studios, consultancies that have been in Koramangala for years and have a site built in 2016 that no longer reflects them. That is a redesign job, and the priority is keeping the search traffic the old site earned.
What I offer
What I build for Koramangala businesses
01
WordPress development
Custom WordPress sites built to the requirements you actually have, rather than a bought theme bent until it roughly fits.
The site does what the business needs, instead of the business working around a template.
02
Website design & development
Design and build together, so what is drawn is what gets shipped and nothing is lost in a handover between two suppliers.
One person accountable for how it looks and whether it works.
03
E-commerce development
WooCommerce and Shopify stores with real product data, tax and shipping rules, and a checkout that has been tested with live payments.
A store you can run yourself rather than ring someone about.
04
Website redesign
Rebuilding an existing site without losing the rankings and the URLs it already has. Redirects mapped before anything goes live.
A better site that keeps the traffic the old one earned.
05
Landing pages
Single pages built for one campaign and one action, with the tracking wired in before launch rather than after.
You can tell what the spend did.
06
Maintenance & support
Updates, backups and monitoring on a schedule, so problems are found before a customer finds them.
The site stays current without you having to remember it.
Key benefits
Why work with a freelance developer
Not an agency, not a marketplace. One developer, working directly with you, accountable for the result.
Built for what you need
The build follows your requirements rather than a package. If something on a standard list is no use to you, it does not get built and you do not pay for it.
Mobile first, not mobile last
Most traffic to a Koramangala business arrives on a phone. The small screen is designed first and the desktop follows, rather than the other way round.
SEO structure from the start
Headings, URLs, metadata, internal links and technical SEO handled during the build, not bolted on by someone else afterwards.
Performance treated as a feature
Core Web Vitals, image handling and caching are part of the work. A site that takes six seconds on mobile data has already lost the visitor.
Support after launch
Launch is not the end of the contract. Ongoing maintenance is available, and so is simply being reachable when something needs changing.
Who this is for
Who I work with in Koramangala
The brief is different for each of these, and the site should be too.
Startups
A first site that has to be credible in front of customers and investors, launch in weeks rather than months, and stay cheap to change while the product is still moving.
D2C brands
A store that handles real product data, variants, offers and payments, and that the marketing team can run without a developer on standby.
Agencies & studios
A portfolio site that loads fast, shows work properly, and does not fall over when a campaign sends traffic at it.
Consultants & professionals
A small, fast, credible site that answers what you do, who for, and how to reach you – without a page-builder bloating it.
Restaurants & cafes
Menus that are easy to update, a location that is actually findable, and a site that works on a phone in poor signal.
Clinics & practices
Clear service pages, an enquiry form that routes to the right person, and the local SEO groundwork so people searching nearby can find you.
Where I work
Working with Koramangala businesses
I am based in Bangalore, so a meeting in Koramangala is straightforward when a project genuinely benefits from one – a first conversation about scope, or a handover session with the team who will run the site.
Most of the work does not need that. Projects run over calls, email and a staging link you can open at any point, which means nobody spends an hour in traffic to look at something that could have been a URL.
To be clear about what I am: a freelance developer based in Bangalore who works with businesses in Koramangala. Not an agency with an office on 80 Feet Road. If you want someone you can meet, that is easy to arrange; if you would rather never meet, that works too.
Working with Koramangala
Based in Bangalore, so a meeting in Koramangala is straightforward when a project genuinely benefits from one.
Remote by default
Most projects run over calls, email and a shared staging link. Nobody has to cross the city for a status update.
Same time zone
Questions asked during your working day get answered during it, rather than overnight.
Beyond Bangalore
Work also runs across India and overseas - Chennai, India, Canada, UK, USA, Dubai, Singapore.

WordPress
WordPress development in Koramangala
Most of what I build here is WordPress, because it is the right tool for a site that has to be changed often by people who are not developers.
What I avoid is the version of WordPress that gives it a bad name: a bought theme, nine plugins doing overlapping jobs, and a page builder that makes every page a slightly different shape.
- Custom themes and child themes written to your brand, with no page-builder dependency
- Theme customisation where you already have a theme worth keeping
- Custom plugins when a requirement genuinely has no good existing solution
- WooCommerce builds with real product data, tax and shipping rules, and tested payments
- Migration from Wix, Squarespace, Blogger or an older WordPress install, with URLs preserved
- Performance work and ongoing maintenance after launch
E-commerce
Shopify and e-commerce for Koramangala businesses
Koramangala has a lot of D2C brands, and the question is usually the same: Shopify or WooCommerce.
The honest answer is that it depends on who runs the store and what it has to do. Shopify is faster to launch and easier to operate; WooCommerce gives you more control and no per-sale platform cut. I will tell you which one suits your case, including when that is the one I am not building.
- Shopify theme customisation and Liquid template work
- WooCommerce stores with variations, bundles, tax rules and shipping zones
- Product catalogue structure that stays usable past a hundred products
- Payment gateways – Razorpay, PayU, Stripe, PayPal – tested with live transactions
- API integration with CRM, ERP, accounting and courier services
- E-commerce SEO: category structure, product schema, and pages that can actually rank
Redesign
Website redesign in Koramangala
A redesign is a riskier project than a new site, and the risk is almost never the design. It is the URLs.
Rebuild a site that has been ranking for years without mapping the old addresses to the new ones, and the traffic goes with the old design. I map redirects before anything goes live, which is unglamorous and is the single most valuable part of the job.
- A full crawl of the existing site, so nothing is lost by being forgotten
- Redirect map agreed before launch, not reconstructed afterwards
- Modern, responsive UI built on your real content rather than placeholder text
- Speed and Core Web Vitals treated as part of the rebuild
- Structure and internal linking improved while the URLs are being handled anyway
- Analytics and Search Console reconnected and verified after go-live

How I work
How a project runs
The same six steps on every project, so you always know what happens next and what you get at the end of it.

Planning
Sitemap, page structure, URL plan and - on a rebuild - the redirect map from the old site to the new one.
Design
Design of the key templates, on real content rather than placeholder text.
Development
The build, on a staging URL you can open at any point.
Testing & SEO
Cross-browser and cross-device testing, forms, speed, and the SEO basics checked against the plan.
Launch & support
Going live, with redirects in place, analytics connected, and a handover so you can run it.
Technology
What I build with
Chosen because it suits the job, not because it is the newest thing available.
WordPress
WordPress coreCustom themes, custom post types and taxonomies, the REST API, and an admin shaped around your content.
Gutenberg / block editorCustom blocks and patterns, so page building stays inside your design system.
ACFStructured fields where editors need control inside firm limits.
WooCommerceProducts, variations, tax and shipping rules, payment gateways and order flow.
Front-end
HTML, CSS, JavaScriptHand-written, accessible markup rather than whatever a builder emits.
BootstrapA grid and components the site already uses, kept consistent across pages.
Responsive buildOne build from a 320px phone to a wide desktop.
Core Web VitalsImages, fonts, scripts and caching treated as part of the build.
E-commerce & integrations
ShopifyTheme customisation, Liquid templates and app integration.
PaymentsRazorpay, PayU, Stripe, PayPal and the usual Indian gateways.
APIsCRM, ERP, accounting, courier and third-party services connected properly.
AnalyticsGA4, Search Console and conversion tracking wired in before launch.
Features
What comes as standard
Included in the build rather than quoted as extras.
Responsive designOne build that works from a 320px phone to a wide desktop.
Custom post typesProducts, properties, courses, team members – modelled as real content.
Enquiry formsValidation, spam filtering, routing and an auto-reply to the sender.
WhatsApp enquiriesA route most customers in India will actually use.
Search & filteringFinding things in a catalogue without scrolling through all of it.
Speed workImage formats, caching, lazy loading and script discipline.
SEO structureHeadings, metadata, schema, sitemaps and internal links.
AnalyticsGA4 and Search Console connected and verified before launch.
Editor trainingA handover so your team can change the site without me.
SEO & performance
Found by people searching in Koramangala
A site in Koramangala competes with every other site in Bangalore for the same searches, so the SEO work is structural rather than decorative.
That means titles and descriptions written per page, headings in a real order, clean URLs, schema, and the local SEO groundwork. What it does not mean is a promise about rankings, which nobody can honestly make.
- Page titles and meta descriptions written per page, not generated
- Headings in a real order, one H1 per page
- Clean URLs, and redirects mapped on any rebuild
- Schema markup so search engines can read the page properly
- Local SEO groundwork: Google Business Profile, consistent details, local landing pages
- XML sitemap and Search Console set up and verified
- Internal links that connect related pages instead of leaving them orphaned
- Core Web Vitals treated as part of the build, not a later fix
AI search
Readable by AI search as well
AI assistants answer by reading pages, so the things that make a page understandable to a person – a clear question, a direct answer under it, structured data saying what the page is – are the same things that make it usable to them.
I build pages that way. What I will not do is promise that your business will appear in any AI answer: no one controls that, and anyone selling it is selling something they cannot deliver.
- Questions as headings, answered directly underneath
- FAQ content marked up as FAQPage
- Clear service and area information rather than marketing adjectives
- Facts stated plainly enough to be quoted accurately
- Structured data that matches what is on the page
- No invented statistics, reviews or claims for a machine to repeat
Why me
Why work with me
Four honest reasons, and no awards.
Twelve years of it
Agency work first, then freelance, across more than a hundred sites. Whatever you bring is probably something I have shipped before – and if it genuinely is not, I will say so rather than learn on your budget.
You talk to the developer
No account manager and no ticket queue. Replies land within one working day, from the person doing the work.
Fixed price, agreed first
The scope and the price are written down before the project starts. If the scope changes, we agree the change; the invoice does not simply grow.
I will tell you what not to build
The cheapest part of a project is the feature talked out of it in week one. Expect to be argued with occasionally.
FAQ
Koramangala: common questions
Yes. I am a freelance WordPress developer based in Bangalore, working with businesses in Koramangala and across the city. Projects run remotely by default, and I can meet in Koramangala when a project benefits from it.
Yes, and it is a large part of the work. The important part of a redesign is keeping the search traffic the old site earned, so I crawl the existing site and agree a redirect map before anything goes live.
Yes – Shopify theme customisation, Liquid template work and app integration. I will also tell you honestly if WooCommerce is the better fit for your case.
Yes, on either Shopify or WooCommerce. That covers product catalogue structure, variants, tax and shipping rules, payment gateways tested with live transactions, and the integrations to your CRM or accounting.
Yes. Maintenance covers core, theme and plugin updates, backups, uptime and security monitoring, and a set amount of content or development time each month. It is optional, not a condition of the build.
The structural parts, yes: technical SEO, headings, metadata, schema, internal linking, sitemaps, Search Console and Core Web Vitals. I do not sell guaranteed rankings, because they do not exist.
Yes, and most projects run that way. You get a staging link from early in the build, so you can see progress whenever you like rather than waiting for a scheduled demo.
Tell me what the site has to do, over the enquiry form or on WhatsApp. For most projects I can give a fixed price and a written scope after one conversation, and I reply within one working day.
