I need a clean, fast-loading blog or informational site built to showcase written content in an organized, reader-friendly layout. The site should be responsive, easy for me to update, and optimized for basic on-page SEO so that new posts can rank well from day one. I’m not after an e-commerce shop or an online portfolio; the focus is strictly on publishing articles, guides, and updates. I’m open to your preferred stack—whether that’s WordPress, a lightweight static-site generator, or a custom solution—so long as it delivers an intuitive editor, solid security, and smooth performance. Key things I expect: • A modern homepage that highlights recent posts and key categories • Individual article pages with share buttons and clear typography • An about/contact page and simple navigation • Basic analytics integration (e.g., Google Analytics) • Deployment to my hosting and a quick walkthrough of how to add or edit content If you have ideas for extras—like a commenting tool, newsletter signup, or site search—feel free to outline them as optional add-ons and quote the additional time involved. I’ll supply branding guidelines, copy, and images. You’ll bring the design, development, and setup expertise, then hand off a well-documented site that I can confidently maintain on my own. Let me know your proposed approach and a realistic timeline for completion.
