Projects

WPZOOM is where it all started. I founded it in 2008, back home in Moldova, and shipped my first theme — Yamidoo — a year later. Since then it has grown into a catalog of award-winning WordPress themes & plugins used by 250,000+ people, including teams at Peugeot, Leica and UNICEF.

Flagship products include Inspiro, a video-first portfolio theme with 60,000+ active installs of its free version, and a family of free plugins — Social Icons Widget, Instagram Widget, WPZOOM Forms and more — powering hundreds of thousands of sites.

Recipe Card Blocks is one of the most popular recipe plugins for WordPress. Food bloggers use it to publish beautiful recipe cards with schema.org markup that ranks in Google — built natively for the block editor, with Elementor support too.

What started as a single block grew into a product with a PRO version, AI-assisted features and its own home at recipecard.io.

Recipe Analyzer is a recipe nutrition calculator used by 160,000+ food bloggers. Paste a recipe, get a full nutrition label — 385,000+ recipes analyzed so far.

It runs on a freemium model with subscriptions, and became one of the most-used tools in the recipecard.io family.

Yamidoo is an AI support agent that answers your website visitors instantly from your own pages and docs — and hands over to a human when it matters. It applies the best practices I've learned answering support for 250,000+ customers over 17 years.

The name is a tribute: Yamidoo was my very first WordPress theme, released in 2009 — the one that started WPZOOM. Seventeen years later, the name gets a second life.

wp.md is a daily ranking tracker for the most popular themes and plugins on WordPress.org — see current rankings, active installs, and which products are rising or falling.

It started as a vibe-coded weekend page and turned into a research tool tracking 14,800+ themes, with in-depth reports about how the WordPress.org popularity algorithm actually works.
