About

I fix websites, and the things underneath them

I'm Jose — an IT manager and web developer based in Dubai. Over 10 years I've built and maintained websites on WordPress, Next.js, Astro and React, run the servers and firewalls behind them, and handled the SEO that decides whether anyone finds them.

That combination is unusual and it's deliberate. A slow site might be a hosting problem, a code problem or a content problem, and most people you hire can only see one of the three. I can usually tell you which it is on the first call.

I currently manage IT and web for a company in Dubai, and take on freelance projects alongside it — for businesses here in the UAE and remotely worldwide.
