Fresh, Creative & Engaging Ideas

Are you a freelance Naperville web developer who’s tired of looking for new clients? Do you regularly feel exhausted after working on one-off WordPress development projects during the day only to spend your evenings looking for new jobs? Do you perform tasks like prospecting; creating proposals and negotiating rates frustrate you?

The good news is that you have another option. You can join a team of web design professionals who work together to bring gorgeous, high-performance websites to fruition. Here at Design & Promote, we’re looking for a proficient Naperville web developer with experience in working with WordPress.

This is a unique opportunity to help evolve and impact a growing web design team.

What We’re Looking for In a WordPress Developer: 

Your core strengths lie in your familiarity with the WordPress architecture.

You know how to optimize a WordPress site so that it loads quickly. You know how to code elements of a responsive design that looks just as good on your Android, as it does on your MacBook Pro. And you know how to tweak the WP backend to guarantee Google’s bots and spiders can crawl and index a site.

At Design & Promote, you’ll be a part of a skilled, enthusiastic team of design and marketing pros. You will no longer be flying solo for the entirety of a project.

You’ll have plenty of autonomy, of course. As a talented developer, you’ll need space to brainstorm and implement creative WordPress solutions. Our work environment is geared toward honoring new ideas!

At the same time, you’ll have the opportunity to use other expert team members as a sounding board for your ideas. That’s an invaluable part of the website design process. It allows you to tap into an array of in-the-trenches perspectives, all of which are focused on producing results.

Questions To Ask Yourself Before Joining Our Team

Although we firmly believe collaboration optimizes the web development process, we realize that type of environment isn’t for everyone. Ask yourself the following questions to determine whether you’d work well as part of our team.

Do I enjoy working with other design and marketing professionals?

Our best web design and marketing campaigns spring from working together. Each member of our team brings a different set of core competencies to the table. Each contributes something valuable to the end product.

Do I have what it takes to be an agency WordPress developer?

Working solo is a lot different than working as a Naperville web developer in an agency. You’ll have a broader set of responsibilities. You’ll have exposure to larger brands. And you’ll benefit from opportunities to deploy WordPress solutions on a larger scale.

Do I have enough experience?

The more experience you have developing and optimizing WordPress sites for clients, the better. Working in the trenches exposes you to challenges you may not confront when creating your own sites. Experience as a freelance Naperville web developer is good. Experience in an agency is even better.

How familiar am I with non-WordPress aspects of web development?

You should understand the basics of search engine optimization, hosting and server management. You should know your way around various scripts and programming languages, such as PHP and CSS. When problems surface, you should be able to troubleshoot them.

How confident am I in my WordPress skills and ideas?

The environment at Design & Promote is fast-paced. We thrive on creative, innovative ideas posed by team members. As a member of our team, you should have the confidence to present solutions to known issues. You should also be able to anticipate potential problems and make recommendations that will prevent them from occurring or fix them before they wreak havoc.

What Do You Want From Your Career?
