Question
I want to get into the corporate-level professional Wordpress development world and help Agencies and Developers with their smaller tasks as a freelancer.
I think there are agencies who are swamped with work and need a hand.
Services I want to offer are:
- Setting up new sites
- Adding new pages
- Making security updates
- Managing backups
- Setting up 301 redirects
- Tracking 404 errors (via a plugin)
- Making SEO Improvements
- Customizing themes
- Installing & configuring plugins
- Whatever else a developer or agency needs.
So I want to do junior level Wordpress work, but I dont want to dive into the php or javascript (yet). I'll leave that to the pros. I want to do the lower end tasks and charge like $20-30/hr for freelancing, giving the pros more time to focus on larger tasks while I handle smaller tasks.
I dont know what to call myself so agencies & developers understand what I'm offering.
- Wordpress Virtual Assistant
- Wordpress Technical Assistant
- Wordpress Webmaster Services
- Wordpress Support Services
- Freelance Wordpress Consultant
- Wordpress Maintenance Services
I really prefer working in an assistant/junior/support capacity for now as I'm still fairly new, but I do have a small portfolio.
Thanks for any advice
Answer
I hire Junior wordpress developers and designers for my firm often. I still want them to feel important and a more prominent title gets you more WordPress experience faster on your way to being a senior developer in the future.
Based on what I have titled my own junior programmers, I suggest:
- Junior Web Developer
- WordPress Web Developer
They both work well and tell clients and employers exactly what you do.
