I’m ready to launch a clean, minimalist travel blog where I can share itineraries, photos, and practical tips from the road. The aesthetic should feel light and clutter-free, letting photography and storytelling take center stage while staying fully responsive across desktop and mobile. Platform I’m open to WordPress (Gutenberg or a lightweight theme), Wix, or even a custom HTML/CSS setup—whichever you feel will deliver fast load times, straightforward content management, and room to grow. Core features (must-haves) • Interactive maps – think Google Maps or Mapbox embeds that let readers explore destinations I mention. • Photo gallery – a simple, visually striking grid/lightbox for high-res images. • Subscription form – email capture integrated with Mailchimp or a comparable service so readers can follow new posts. Nice-to-haves (if easily included) – Basic SEO setup (clean URLs, meta tags). – Social share buttons that match the minimalist theme. – Simple analytics hook-up (e.g., Google Analytics GA4). Deliverable A fully configured live site with the above elements functioning, ready for me to start publishing content and easily add new trips over time. Any premium plugins, themes, or APIs you recommend should be flagged so I can secure the proper licenses. You’ll hand over: • Admin credentials • Brief written walkthrough (or short Loom video) showing how to add posts, images, and map pins. Timeline is flexible within a couple of weeks; quality, speed, and maintainability matter most. Let me know which platform you’d choose and why, plus any previous work that shows you can nail a minimalist look with interactive elements.
