The VegasGeek Story
From 2003 to Industry Leader.
Hi, I’m John Hawkins, better known in the tech community as VegasGeek. My journey with WordPress began in the summer of 2003. The very year the platform was born. What started as “under the hood” tweaks to my personal site evolved into a career dedicated to building the architecture of the web.
Based in Henderson, Nevada, and serving the Las Vegas area and global clients, I provide specialized WordPress development, support, and consulting for businesses that need more than just a website, they need a long-term digital partner.
Proven WordPress Authority
(By the Numbers).
Commitment, Innovation, and
Excellence in Development.
Unlike agencies that focus on “churn and burn” project cycles, my philosophy is built on long-term relationships. Your website shouldn’t just be launched; it should evolve.
Whether I’m speaking at WordCamps from Phoenix to New York or helping a local Henderson business secure their email with my Email Authenticity Guard, my goal remains the same: making the complex simple.
