Free Wordpress Developer Service Agreement

One bad line of code in the database can torch a client's revenue and leave you facing a five-figure lawsuit for lost earnings. Without a signed paper, you’re just a day-laborer waiting to get stiffed on the final invoice while they keep your hard-earned code.

Pro Contractor Tip

Stick a 'Limitation of Liability' clause in there so a single server crash doesn't cost you your house and your gear.

Why use a written agreement?

Handshake deals are risky. As a Wordpress Developer, "scope creep" is your biggest enemy. A clear agreement ensures everyone agrees on the deliverables before money changes hands.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I handle a client who keeps adding features without paying more?

Treat your scope of work like a load-bearing wall; if they want to move it, you issue a written Change Order and don't lift a finger until the new price is signed off.

What if the project drags on for months past the deadline because the client is ghosting me?

Put a 'Project Suspension' clause in the contract so you can kill the job and keep the deposit if they don't provide the materials needed to finish the work.

Client wants the admin login before the final check clears, what now?

You don't hand over the keys to the house until the mortgage is paid; use your contract to state clearly that ownership of the code only transfers when the balance hits zero.
