Contact us --- Skip to content About us Hey there! I’m Julian, the creator of WP Summarize. I’ve been working with WordPress for around 15 years, and I’ve been building websites (or “niche websites” as they’re called nowadays) for more than two decades. My expertise lies primarily in SEO, but as a solopreneur, I’ve had to wear many hats and dabble in various aspects of web development and digital marketing. I built my first WordPress plugin 16 years ago, which you can still find at the WordPress repository here. But wait, don’t install that if you want your WordPress to live, I haven’t touched that code also in 16 years LOL Fast-forward to today from that first plugin attempt and here we are with WP Summarize. This tool was born out of my own needs as a website owner trying to stand out with my content. After using it successfully for my own projects, I realized that other WordPress users could benefit from it too.
