What you can hire me for
Five things in two families, all of them work I do myself. If a job needs something outside this list, I will say so rather than learn on your infrastructure.
Slot 36 Service list 2 families
The services
Move & Run
Work on the server itself: getting it moved, getting it built, keeping it up.
- Slot 09 Most requested from $79 Website and server moves Your sites, databases and email, moved without downtime.
- Between cPanel, DirectAdmin and Plesk, in any direction
- To and from Cloudways, RunCloud, ServerPilot and GridPane
- WordPress moves, one site or hundreds
- Email moved too, with folders and read status intact
- Slot 08 from $99 New server setup and security A new server, set up properly and locked down before it goes live.
- cPanel, DirectAdmin, Plesk or a plain Linux box
- Firewall and web application firewall configured, not just installed
- PHP and MySQL sized for what the server actually runs
- Backups set up and proven by restoring one
- Slot 07 from $49/mo Ongoing server care Your ops person, without the hire.
- Built for agencies and hosting businesses, monthly
- Your servers or your clients on cPanel, Cloudways or RunCloud
- Updates, monitoring and backups that get restored
- Someone on call for incidents and migrations
Build
The parts your customers see: the website, and the screen where they pay.
- Slot 06 from $349 Website design and build A fast site with no hosting bill, or WordPress kept properly maintained.
- Astro static sites, hosted free on Cloudflare
- You pay for the domain, around $10 a year, and nothing else
- WordPress when the site needs a login and an editor
- Updates, security and small content changes on a plan
- Slot 05 from $499 WHMCS billing and signup design A signup and billing area your customers can actually get through.
- Customer area and order form designed together
- On your brand, not a bought skin fought into shape
- Signup reordered so people finish it
- Built on WHMCS templates, so updates stay routine
Something custom? If it runs on a Linux box, it is in scope. I also build with Laravel and WordPress, and work across managed platforms like Cloudways.
Slot 26 Procedure 5 stages
How a move actually runs
The order matters more than the tools. Most bad migrations skipped stage one, or squeezed stage four into an evening.
- 01
I look at what you have
Every site, domain, mailbox, database and scheduled job on the old server, counted and written down. This is where the surprises turn up, while they are still cheap.
- 02
One site moves first
The new server gets built and one representative site moves end to end. Whatever breaks, breaks here instead of on the night everything switches.
- 03
The rest follows
Everything else copies across while the old server is still live and still receiving mail. Nothing has switched over yet, so nothing is at risk.
- 04
We switch over
DNS timings lowered a day or two in advance, then the switch, at whatever hour your traffic is lowest. Mail that arrived on the old server during the changeover gets synced across afterwards.
- 05
I prove it worked
Site and mailbox counts checked on both sides, message counts compared folder by folder, SSL reissued, scheduled jobs confirmed running. You get the numbers, plus anything that had to be rebuilt by hand.
Slot 18 Compatibility Platforms handled
Platforms I move between
Any direction, including back off a managed platform onto your own server.
- cPanel / WHM
- DirectAdmin
- Plesk
- Cloudways
- RunCloud
- ServerPilot
- GridPane
- Plain VPS
Slot 10 Terms of engagement
What you can expect
Starting prices published, final ones quoted
Every service page prints what the work starts at, so you can decide whether to bother before you write to me. Site counts, data size and how much has to stay online decide the rest, and that number is fixed before anything begins.
Work in your quiet hours
Switchovers happen when your traffic is lowest, not when it suits me. Timezones are part of the plan.
A way back
The old server stays intact and reachable until you are happy. Going back is a DNS change, not a restore from a backup nobody has tested.
You talk to me
Email, or whatever channel you already use, with the person doing the work. No ticket queue in between.

Tell me what needs moving
How many sites, which host you are on now, and what cannot go offline. That is enough for a straight answer about what it takes.
