Hi, I’m Philip Clark, the founder of PhilipClark.dev and a web developer based in Elizabethtown, Kentucky. I’ve spent years building websites, first as an independent contractor and then as a full-time web developer managing nine business websites. If that experience taught me one thing, it’s how complicated and time-consuming a website can be for the people who own one.
Solving Problems for People Who Run Businesses
I’ve always been drawn to solving problems for business owners. Sometimes that meant partnering with them to develop physical solutions. Sometimes it meant figuring out which software they actually needed. And often it simply meant taking on the web development work they didn’t have the bandwidth for.
Why I Started PhilipClark.dev
For most of my career, I focused on building websites that companies could manage themselves, so nobody was left stranded after launch. That still matters to me. But over the years I realized something: business owners shouldn’t have to worry about SEO scores, plugin updates or server uptime. Their time is better spent running their business.
That’s why I’m launching PhilipClark.dev. The goal is simple: take the stress of owning a website off your plate, so you can focus on the work only you can do.
- Domains & DNS
- Hosting & uptime
- Plugin & theme updates
- Page speed
- SEO
- Security & backups
- Edits & new features

A Website Plan for Every Budget
Not everyone needs the same level of help, so I offer a few ways to work together:
- Free DIY guide. Prefer to do it yourself? I give away the step-by-step guide to building your own website, using the exact tools and process I use.
- Budget Plan. A professionally built website designed from day one for easy maintenance, so you can confidently manage it yourself.
- Base and Full-Service Plans. Fully managed websites where I take care of everything. This is where I believe I can help you most.
Managed Websites: You Dream, I Handle the Details
The Base and Full-Service plans take the mental load of managing a website completely off your plate. You tell me what you want, and I handle the details.
To make it even easier, I don’t quote per change or update. You’ll never have to stop and wonder whether a new feature is worth another invoice. Go ahead and dream. For a single monthly payment, with annual plans available for an even better deal, you get the site of your dreams with no nightmares and no stress. Behind the scenes, I’ll:
- Keep WordPress, plugins and themes up to date
- Make sure your pages load fast
- Optimize your site for search engines
- Handle hosting and all the other technical details
Full-Service members also get priority updates and support, plus extras like custom automations, Google Workspace and a company email address. Learn more about Full-Service.
The Tools Behind Every Build
Every site is built on proven, professional tools, the same ones I walk through in the free guide.
Let’s Build Your Website
If you or someone you know needs a website but doesn’t want to take on the stress of building one, reach out. I’d be happy to help, whatever your budget.
And if you’re looking for a premium, hands-off hosting experience, sign up for the Base or Full-Service plan and ditch the stress for good.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a managed website?
A managed website is one where a developer takes care of the technical side for you: hosting, updates, page speed, SEO and changes. On the Base and Full-Service plans, you tell me what you want and I handle the rest for one monthly payment.
Do you charge extra for changes or new features?
No. On the Base and Full-Service plans I don’t quote per change or update, so you never have to wonder whether a new feature is worth another invoice.
Are annual plans available?
Yes. Annual plans are available and come with a better deal than paying month to month.
Can I manage my website myself instead?
Absolutely. The Budget Plan gets you a professionally built site designed for easy self-maintenance, and the free DIY guide shows you how to build one on your own.
