About Saddam Hossen
I've been building WordPress websites for 9+ years. I live and breathe WordPress.
Saddam Hossen
WordPress Developer
Hi, I'm Saddam Hossen. I specialize in building fast, secure, and scalable WordPress websites that are easy to manage.
My journey in web development started over 9 years ago when I fell in love with creating beautiful, functional websites. I began as a front-end developer, mastering HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and React. But when I discovered WordPress, I found my true calling.
What attracts me to WordPress isn't just its flexibility—it's the ability to build custom solutions that solve real business problems. Whether it's a high-traffic e-commerce store, a complex membership platform, or a corporate website that needs to scale, I enjoy the challenge of building systems that just work.
My Approach to WordPress Development
I don't believe in one-size-fits-all solutions. Every business has unique needs, and your website should reflect that. That's why I focus on:
- ✓Custom Development: Building themes and plugins from scratch instead of relying on bloated, generic solutions. Every line of code serves a purpose.
- ✓Performance First: Every site I build is optimized for speed. Core Web Vitals and user experience are top priorities, not afterthoughts.
- ✓Security & Scalability: Writing clean, secure code that can handle growth without breaking. Your site should work flawlessly whether you have 100 or 100,000 visitors.
- ✓User-Friendly Backend: Making sure you can manage your content easily without needing a developer for every change. The backend should be as intuitive as the frontend is beautiful.
- ✓Minimal Plugins: Plugins are easy to install but hard to remove. I build custom functionality instead of creating a house of cards with dozens of plugins.
Beyond WordPress
While WordPress is my main focus, I'm also experienced with modern web technologies. I work with React and Next.js for headless WordPress projects, integrate complex APIs, and build custom solutions that connect WordPress with other platforms and services.
This portfolio site you're viewing right now? It's built with Next.js on the frontend and WordPress as a headless CMS on the backend, showcasing my full-stack capabilities.
Professional Journey
Currently, I'm working as a freelance WordPress developer, serving clients globally through Upwork and direct engagements. Previously, I've worked with companies like:
Developing custom WordPress themes and plugins, optimizing website performance, and integrating advanced APIs for client automation needs.
Troubleshot complex WordPress issues, authored technical documentation, and collaborated with developers to fix bugs and optimize performance.
Developed pixel-perfect WordPress sites using Elementor, Divi, and WPBakery. Created interactive UI with React and managed SEO optimization.
Education & Certifications
Let's Work Together
I'm always interested in taking on new challenges. Whether you need a complete website built from scratch, want to optimize an existing site, or need help with a complex WordPress problem, I'd love to hear from you.
