Vitalii Kaplia – WordPress Developer Ukraine

About me

I became interested in programming back in 1997. The first acquaintance with a future profession was using Visual Basic. In 2004-2005, I was involved in the development of Nullsoft Install System installers and the creation of interactive animations Macromedia Flash, which served as a good springboard to start working with web technologies.

In 2006, I began to get involved in web technologies as a hobby, in such cases they say: it is lucky when a hobby becomes a job. So in 2009, passion turned into a profession.

In 2010, I developed my first WordPress site, the success of which prompted me to create my own private enterprise. Since then, I have been actively studying WordPress and all related technologies that you need to know to provide quality services and develop unique solutions for customers. In 2015, I opened SWIFT accounts for the opportunity to officially provide website development and creative services to customers from the USA, Europe, Asia and other countries. Now the number of customers from around the world has reached over a hundred and is constantly growing.
