About Rendar Digital
Built to perform, not just to impress.
Most agencies optimize for their own convenience, not their clients’ outcomes. After years of watching teams chase trends, cut corners, and treat clients like tickets instead of partners, we built Rendar Digital to do the exact opposite.
We understand the problem before we recommend anything. We build things right so they stay right. And we’d rather turn down a project than take money for something we can’t stand behind.
Why
What we believe
Your website is a business tool, not a portfolio piece. Too many agencies build sites that look impressive in their case studies but don’t actually perform for the client. We think a site that converts visitors and makes your life easier is worth more than one that wins design awards. Every decision we make starts with a simple question: does this help the business?
You deserve to understand what you’re paying for. We don’t hide behind jargon or process theater. Before any code gets written, you’ll know what we’re building, why we’re building it, and what it costs. If we think you’re asking for the wrong thing, we’ll say so. That’s not pushback for its own sake. It’s how we make sure your money goes where it matters.
Good work takes honesty, not just talent. We’ll tell you when a project isn’t a good fit. We’ll tell you when your timeline is unrealistic. We’ll tell you when the feature you want will hurt more than it helps. We’d rather lose the work than take your money for something we don’t believe in. That’s not a marketing line. It’s how we’ve kept 95% of our client relationships ongoing.
Things should be built to last. No shortcuts. No quick fixes that create problems six months later. We write clean code that is accessible, loads fast, works on every device, and doesn’t fall apart when you try to update it yourself. And we stick around after launch, because a website isn’t a deliverable you hand off and walk away from.
Clients
Who we work with
Most of our clients share a few things in common. They’re established businesses, typically doing $500K or more in revenue. They’ve been around long enough to know what they need, and long enough to have been let down by someone who couldn’t deliver it.
Some come to us after a bad agency experience. The last team overpromised and underdelivered, left behind a half-built site, or disappeared after launch. They’re skeptical, and they should be.
Some have outgrown DIY. They built something that worked when the business was smaller, but now they need a site or store that can keep up with where the business is going. They don’t want to hire a full-time developer. They want a partner who understands their business.
Some have internal teams that need specialized help. They know WordPress or Shopify or app development well enough to know they need someone who knows it better. Or they’re busy and need a trusted partner who can deliver real results.
What they all have in common: they value expertise over price, they’re willing to invest in doing it right, and they want a long-term relationship, not a one-off transaction.
Founder
Led by Ian Svoboda
Ian is a WordPress core contributor with over 13 years in the industry. Before starting Rendar Digital, he was at 10up, one of the top WordPress agencies in the world, building WordPress VIP sites and complex web applications for Fortune 500 companies, national news outlets, and government organizations.
His code runs on hundreds of thousands of WordPress sites. He’s been trusted by major plugin teams to ship features and releases to production. He’s built for local businesses, startups, national brands with millions of monthly visitors, and companies that needed someone to untangle what the last agency left behind.
Ian is also a WordCamp Jacksonville speaker and organizer, and an active contributor to the WordPress open source project. He doesn’t just build on these platforms. He helps shape them.

Team
A small team by design
Rendar Digital isn’t an agency with 50 people and a sales team. It’s not a solo freelancer operation either.
Ian leads every project. When the work calls for additional expertise, he brings in collaborators he’s worked with for years. Designers, developers, and strategists who are part of a professional network built over more than a decade. These aren’t contractors pulled from a job board. These are senior-level contributors with substantial experience that you can trust to get the job done right.
The result: senior-level talent is responsible for every deliverable on every project. No account managers playing telephone between you and the person doing the work. When you have a question, you talk to the person who has the answer.
