Software built for agencies that are ready to scale.
I'm currently building an internal agency management system designed around a problem I have experienced first-hand: keeping developers, account managers, clients, deliverables and SOPs aligned as an agency grows.
- Create packages and connect them to clients.
- Choose which deliverables become active tasks.
- Assign work to the right team member.
- Track what needs to be delivered and what is complete.
- Give new team members a central place for SOPs, clients and responsibilities.
- Use a reliable database and controlled access instead of scattered communication.
What I do
A developer who can work across the website, code and growth side.
I don't want to position myself as someone who only writes code. My work sits between development, WordPress, technical SEO and the systems that make digital work easier to deliver.
01
WordPress Development
Custom WordPress websites with Elementor, responsive layouts, reusable structures and practical content management.
02
Website Redesigns
Turn an outdated website or existing design into a cleaner, faster and more conversion-focused experience.
03
Technical SEO
Start with the fundamentals: crawling, indexing, performance, structure, metadata, links and technical issues.
04
Full-Stack Development
Build applications where the frontend, backend, database and business logic need to work together.
05
Internal Tools
Purpose-built software for agencies and businesses that have outgrown spreadsheets, scattered messages and manual workflows.
06
Systems & Integrations
Connect the tools a business already uses and create structured workflows around how the team actually works.
Working together
Simple process. Clear deliverables.
For an internal agency system, the typical build target is 7–14 days depending on scope and feedback.
01
Discovery
Understand the business, current workflow, problems and what the system actually needs to solve.
02
Plan
Turn the requirements into the structure, user flows, data model and development priorities.
03
Build
Develop the website or internal system, connect the database and build the functionality around the workflow.
04
Launch
Test, refine, deploy and hand over a system your team can actually use and maintain.
A little about me
I like building things that solve real problems.
I'm Zachary, a developer based in Cape Town, South Africa. My work has grown from WordPress and website development into full-stack development, technical SEO and custom internal systems.
I enjoy taking something that is unclear, inefficient or difficult to manage and turning it into something structured — whether that's a website, a technical workflow or software used by an entire team.
The goal isn't to use the biggest technology stack. It's to build the right thing, make it reliable, and make sure the people using it understand how it works.
