Remote PHP Developer
Jobs
Remote PHP developer jobs remain plentiful in 2026 — PHP powers a huge portion of the web (WordPress, Laravel, Symfony). Modern PHP (8.x+) is fast, type-safe, and a legitimate choice for backend development. If you know PHP or work in the WordPress/Laravel ecosystem, there are tons of remote opportunities, often with great work-life balance.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is PHP still used in 2026?
Yes — PHP runs ~75% of all websites (mostly WordPress). Modern PHP frameworks (Laravel, Symfony) are excellent for backend development. The job market is strong, especially for Laravel and WordPress developers.
What salary can remote PHP developers expect?
PHP salaries are competitive. Mid-level: $70k–$130k, senior: $130k–$200k, staff/lead: $180k–$300k+. Laravel developers often earn more than WordPress developers. PHP salaries lag slightly behind JavaScript/Python, but the market is stable.
Should I learn Laravel or WordPress?
Both have strong job markets. Laravel for modern backend development (APIs, web apps). WordPress for content sites, e-commerce, and agencies. If you're starting fresh, Laravel is more modern and transferable. WordPress has more freelance opportunities.
What companies hire PHP developers?
Agencies (tons of WordPress work), e-commerce companies, SaaS companies using Laravel, media and publishing, and many established tech companies still running PHP. The market is huge, but less 'sexy' than JavaScript/Python.
