About · The person behind PSDgator

Nearly two decades building for agencies. Now one thing, done deeper.

I'm Antony. Since 2007 I've been the developer agencies quietly hand their work to — PSDgator started by turning designs into code, over 10,000 projects' worth. It's still me, still PSDgator, with a narrower focus: WooCommerce, agencies only, white-label.

One freelancer, not a shop. Same person on every job. Your NDA signed before we start. Your client never hears my name. The reliability agencies came back to for 18 years — now pointed at the stores that break, slow down and fail compliance.

The story

When design-to-code became a commodity, I had two options: go wider and compete with everyone, or go deeper and become the one person agencies call for the work that still needs a specialist.

PSDgator started in Thessaloniki in 2007 with a simple promise to agencies: send the design, get back clean, pixel-accurate code — quietly, under your name, on time. That promise held for nearly two decades and more than ten thousand projects, for studios you've never heard of and brands you have: Fiverr, 99designs, 3M, Grant Cardone, Viddyoze, WishList, eFront, Moosend.

Along the way the work changed. Design-to-code got cheaper every year — page builders, then templates, then AI — until it stopped being something an agency needed a specialist for. But the requests that kept coming back were different: the WooCommerce store that couldn't get fast no matter what was installed, the checkout that stopped taking payments after an update, the compliance question nobody on the team could answer, the "cleaned" site that got hacked again. Every one of them was WooCommerce. Every one of them needed judgment, not a tool.

So PSDgator went deeper. Same name, same person, same phone number — one platform, one kind of client, and a service list built around what no plugin, converter or AI agent can safely do to a live store. Not wider. Deeper.

How it got here

Eighteen years, one direction

The short version of a long relationship with agencies.

2007

PSDgator opens in Thessaloniki

Design-to-code for agencies: PSD to HTML, then WordPress and WooCommerce builds. White-label from the first job — the agency's name on the work, never mine.

2010s

Agencies become the whole business

Thousands of projects for design, marketing and SEO agencies, plus platform and brand clients like Fiverr, 99designs and 3M. Repeat work, not one-offs — the same studios coming back for years.

2020s

Design-to-code commoditizes; the WooCommerce asks don't

Builders, templates and AI make the original service cheap. Meanwhile the hardest, most-repeated requests are all WooCommerce: speed ceilings, broken checkouts, security, and — from 2025 — accessibility law and the block checkout migration.

2026

PSDgator goes WooCommerce-only

The same client relationships and discipline, refocused on one platform for one kind of client. Three flagship services no tool can automate, and a care plan sold on accountability. Same name, same phone number, same person.

How I work

The rules that made agencies stay

None of these are new. They're what PSDgator ran on for eighteen years — written down.

NDA first, no exceptions

I sign yours before project details are shared. Every deliverable carries your brand.

I never contact your client

Not once, not "just to clarify." You own the relationship; I'm invisible in it.

Staging first, always

Nothing touches a live store untested. Emergencies get a rehearsal before the fix goes in.

Same person, every job

No rotating juniors, no account-manager layer. You brief me; I do the work; I hand it back.

Fixed quotes, partner rates

You get a number before I start. You add your margin. No hourly surprises, no scope creep.

Honest ceilings

If optimization can't get there because of the builder, or a plugin has no block-compatible path, I say so before you pay for it.

Bio

A specialist, not a shop

I've written WordPress and WooCommerce code for a living since 2007 — long enough to have seen every way a store breaks, and to know which fixes hold. I've worked almost exclusively through agencies the whole time, which is why the white-label discipline isn't a policy I adopted; it's the only way I've ever worked.

What I'm good at is the unglamorous, high-stakes middle of ecommerce: the checkout that has to keep taking money while it's fixed, the store that has to get fast without changing how it looks, the compliance work that has to hold up if someone asks. The things that don't have a plugin.

I keep the business deliberately small. One senior person who already knows where WooCommerce breaks beats a team that has to rediscover it on your client's store — and it means the person you brief on Monday is the person who hands the fix back on Tuesday.

I also build and support my own WordPress products: Snipfire, a code snippets plugin that checks and test-loads every snippet before it goes live, and PokaTheme, a premium affiliate theme with more than 2,000 customers. Shipping software people pay for keeps me close to the same updates, plugin conflicts and support tickets your clients' stores run into.

On AI: I use it every day and it makes me faster — scanners, log reading, the mechanical 80% of speed work, first drafts of reports. I don't let it touch a live checkout, sign off compliance, or make a judgment call on a client's store. AI-fluent, not AI-dependent. Where AI fits →
