Kausar Alam (@kausaralm) – WordPress user profile

Bio

I’m Kausar Alam, and I have been working in WordPress development and technical support for almost a decade. My journey began in 2014 when I started as a Freelance WordPress web developer on Upwork (formerly oDesk). Over the years, I gained extensive experience building customized web solutions that fit clients’ specific needs. In 2018, I joined Sweetgrass Marketing LLC, where I spent four years sharpening my skills and contributing to many successful web projects.

In 2021, I shifted to a technical support role at DBL07 in Columbia, USA. There, I used my expertise to help clients troubleshoot and optimize their WordPress websites, which gave me an even deeper understanding of the WordPress ecosystem.

From October 2022 to November 2024, I worked as a Technical Support Specialist at Elegant Themes. I supported over 9,200 customers through live chat and maintained a 93% 5-star rating. My main focus was solving complex WordPress issues and ensuring our customers had a seamless experience with our products.

With a solid background in WordPress and a real passion for helping people, I’m confident in my ability to tackle any technical challenge and stay ahead in the fast-paced world of web development and support.

WordPress Origin Story

My cousin, Yousuf Sultan, introduced me to WordPress, and he has been working as a Senior WordPress Developer since 2011. I started learning about WordPress from different sources, such as Google, YouTube videos, and the WordPress Community. Although I am still discovering new things about WordPress, I continue learning through resources like WordPress.org, Google, and YouTube.
