Upforge Studio is a senior WordPress and Shopify development studio. I design and build WordPress and Shopify websites for businesses that need more calls, bookings and orders, not just a nicer homepage. Every build ships fast, mobile-first and ready to rank.
I'm a software engineer who builds websites the way your customers use them: fast, clear and easy to act on.
I've been building WordPress and Shopify websites since 2019, working with landscapers, diesel shops, med spas, insurance agencies, daycares, nonprofits and online stores. That mix taught me something simple. A website earns its keep when the right person finds it, trusts it within a few seconds and knows exactly what to do next. Every project I take on is built around that path.
You work with me directly from the first call to launch day. No account managers, no hand-offs, no guessing who's touching your site.
Pick one service or bring me the whole project. Each one is scoped up front with a fixed quote and a clear list of what you get.
Custom WordPress sites your team can actually edit. Built on lean themes or Elementor, with reusable blocks so adding a page never breaks the design.
Custom Shopify themes and sections built in Liquid, plus the right apps configured properly. Your store stays fast, on-brand and easy to merchandise.
WooCommerce or Shopify stores designed around how your buyers shop, from first click to paid order.
Slow sites lose visitors before they read a word. I find the real bottlenecks and fix them.
Already have a site? I redesign the pages that matter most so visitors know where to click.
Every card below opens a site that's online right now. Filter by industry to find work close to yours.

Most Launch sites go live in 2 to 3 weeks. Growth sites take 3 to 5 weeks and online stores 4 to 8 weeks, depending on the number of products. The biggest factor is how quickly content and feedback come back, so I give you a simple checklist on day one.
Yes. Plenty of projects are redesigns, speed fixes or new sections on an existing site. I work on a staging copy first so your live site keeps running while changes are tested.
That's the core of how I build. Every site launches with compressed images, clean code, proper heading structure, meta titles, schema markup, a sitemap and Search Console connected. You get a launch report with the speed scores.
You do. The domain, hosting, design files and all logins are in your name once the final payment is made. You're never locked into working with me.
I can. SEO copywriting is available as an add-on, written around the services and areas you want to rank for. If you prefer to write it yourself, I'll send a page-by-page template so nothing gets missed.
A short brief form, your logo, any photos you have, and access to your domain or current site. Fill in the form below and I'll send the brief right after our call.
Every package includes a free support window for bug fixes and small tweaks. After that you can join the monthly care plan or simply message me when you need something. Many clients stay on for years.
Tell me about your project and I'll reply within 24 hours with questions, a rough budget range and the next step. No pressure, no sales script.
