Hi DEV Community 👋
My name is Steven Doan. I’m a freelance websites developer.
I have worked with WordPress for many years, building websites for clients and affiliate projects. Recently, I’ve also been learning and building with Astro, modern static sites, and better web performance workflows.
I joined DEV to learn from other developers, improve my writing, and share my own experience as someone who has used both WordPress and modern web tools in real projects.
In the future, I plan to write about:
- WordPress vs modern stacks
- Astro, static sites, and performance
- Hosting, VPS, and deployment
- Lessons from building affiliate websites
- Things I learn as a non-native English developer
I’m still improving my English, so my posts may not be perfect, but I want to write more, learn more, and connect with other developers here.
Nice to meet you all!

Welcome to dev!
Welcome to DEV!
Honestly, I’d rather read practical lessons from someone running real websites than another theoretical tutorial.
WordPress, hosting, SEO, performance, affiliate marketing, and client work all expose you to problems that many developers never encounter.
Keep writing. Technical knowledge is valuable, but real-world experience is what makes it interesting.
