Webital - Hamburg
Freelance PHP support for sites that need to keep working.
I help businesses stabilize old PHP systems, maintain CMS and WordPress sites, modernize fragile code, and build practical next steps without turning every problem into a full rebuild.

Where I help
For existing web systems with real business weight.
The work usually starts where a site is too valuable to ignore and too tangled to change casually.
PHP, CMS, WordPress, dependencies
Modernize
Upgrade what needs upgrading, simplify what has drifted, and avoid rewriting working business logic for sport.
MySQL, reports, admin workflows, APIs
Extend
Add focused features around the system you already have, with code another developer can understand later.
Working method
Read the system before changing the system.
Old applications carry business knowledge. The first job is to find that knowledge, protect it, and then make the smallest reliable improvement.
