If you run a business site in Nigeria and something’s wrong with it — slow, hacked, outdated, or you simply don’t have one yet — here’s a plain, detailed rundown of what I actually fix and build, and how the process usually goes.
Common problems I get called in for
- Hacked WordPress sites — malware cleanup, backdoor removal, and hardening so it doesn’t happen again. This is one of the most common emergency requests I get, usually after Google has already flagged the site or a host has suspended the account.
- Slow-loading sites — hosting, caching, and image fixes that actually move load time, rather than surface-level tweaks that don’t touch the real bottleneck.
- Broken plugins or theme conflicts after an update, which is one of the most common ways a WordPress site suddenly stops working with no obvious cause.
- Sites that don’t show up on Google — indexing and technical SEO fixes, often something as simple as a misconfigured robots.txt or a missing sitemap that’s been silently blocking search visibility for months.
- No website at all yet — new WordPress, WooCommerce, or custom PHP builds, scoped around what the business actually needs rather than a generic template.
How a typical engagement goes
First, I look at the actual problem — not just what you think is wrong, but what’s actually happening under the hood. A “slow site” complaint sometimes turns out to be a hosting issue, sometimes a bloated plugin stack, sometimes both. I tell you honestly what it’ll take to fix, including when a full rebuild genuinely isn’t necessary (which is more often than people expect). You get a clear price and timeline before any work starts, and when we’re done, you get full ownership of the domain, hosting account, and source code — nothing gets held hostage on my end, which unfortunately isn’t a universal standard in this market.
What it typically costs
Small fixes — a hacked site cleanup, a broken plugin, a speed issue — typically run ₦40,000–₦150,000 depending on how deep the damage goes. New business websites typically run ₦150,000–₦1,200,000 depending on scope: a simple brochure site sits at the lower end, a custom-designed site or WooCommerce store sits higher. I break this down in much more detail, by project type, in my full website pricing guide.
What to send me to get an accurate quote fast
- The site’s URL, if it exists already
- A short description of what’s wrong, or what you want built
- Any deadline you’re working against
- Whether you already have hosting/domain, or need that set up too
With that, I can usually give you a realistic price and timeline within the same conversation, not days later.
