Project description:
"My WordPress site is running on a VPS and has recently been hit by a cocktail of problems—frequent downtime, sluggish page loads, and a handful of stubborn functional bugs. I want to wipe the slate clean, rebuild the server environment from scratch, and come out the other side with a faster, more reliable site and a clear paper trail of every change made.

- Resolve all downtime, errors, and bugs of my website
- Rebuild website server to clean up and refresh
- Create new droplet and set up the site for testing in order to minimize downtime
- Document all updates and changes for any future changes

Here’s how I picture the engagement: you spin up a fresh droplet for staging so all heavy lifting happens away from the live site. While the new server is being hardened and tuned (Nginx/Apache configs, PHP-FPM, MySQL, caching layers—whatever stack you recommend), you’ll audit every plugin, identify compatibility clashes or performance drains, and remove or replace anything that’s holding the site back. Once the staging setup runs smoothly, we swap it over with minimal downtime.

Deliverables I want to walk away with:
• A fully optimized production droplet, live and stable
• A parallel staging droplet for future testing
• A concise plugin report: keep/replace/remove, version notes, and reasons
• A changelog covering server configs, code tweaks, and any bug fixes, so the next admin can pick up right where you left off
• Confirmation that all pages now load quickly and error-free (a quick GTmetrix or Lighthouse snapshot is fine)" (client-provided description)
