I’m ready to launch a clean, responsive website dedicated to publishing timely news and updates. The focus is information delivery, so visual clutter is out; fast loading and clear navigation are in. Core requirements • Design and develop a modern news-style site (mobile-first, cross-browser compatible). • Implement robust search functionality so visitors can quickly locate articles by keyword, category, or date. • Build on a user-friendly CMS—WordPress, Ghost, or a comparable platform—so I can publish stories and manage content without touching code. • Set up logical categories/tags and an intuitive menu structure. • Optimize basic on-page SEO and schema to boost discoverability. • Provide concise documentation or a brief walkthrough showing me how to add posts and manage the search feature. Nice-to-have (not mandatory but highlight if you can add): future-ready spaces for a comment section or newsletter integration. Deliver the full site on my hosting, styled to match a simple news aesthetic. Clean code, no unused plugins or templates. I’m looking for a reliable developer who can move efficiently from design concept to functional launch while keeping communication clear throughout the build.
