BUSINESS WEB SITE (Coaching Business) possibly done in WordPress (needs to be analyzed), buyer is mac user home page plus seven web pages, very clearly laid out (need for web builder plus graphic design know-how) high quality in content and design, excellent English skills (proof-reading) looking for long term relationship (ongoing work for years to come) ## Deliverables BUSINESS WEB SITE (Coaching Business) **> Please read my project information and send your answers to my questions (see at the end) when you reply with your bid** Project Objective: home page plus six web pages plus one web page (extra browser window) / web site must run on windows and mac (I have mac) Web designer must have graphic design talent (an eye for detail and design is important) and excellent English skills (proof reading my English, I’m a German native) Looking for long term relationship It needs to be clarified (analysis: what fits my needs best) what language/program/code/online web builder will be used for creating the web site; mandatory is a user friendly application; I’m looking for a solution that “anyone?? can add and change my site (i.e. web builder goes out of business); changes in text and layout must be able to be done without lots of effort/costs (i.e. online login); preferably WORDPRESS (unless you can convince me that wordpress is not good enough to obtain a high end solution for my web site) Web Site Details: > Audience: Entrepreneurs, Service Professionals, Business Owners, Entrepreneurial Thinkers > Purpose: lead potential clients to action (send email or call) > Style (design, content): professional, very clearly laid out (well arranged), fresh, down-to-earth, unique/different, eye-catching, entertaining, positive, educating, round corners as [[login to view URL]][1] > Colors: “teal?? (CYMK 100/0/62/4), white, gray (possibly black) > Font: size and type - see i.e. [[login to view URL]][1] and [[login to view URL]][2] > What I will provide: text for content, photos, logo (everything is completed except the final version of logo, it only needs better pixels)? > Example for design: [[login to view URL]][2] (I don’t want to copy this web site! But this site comes very close to what I want - the newsletter (incl. download of free report) feature and the testimonials in the left side bar are not part of this -initial- project, it will be added later in another project {that means it must be feasible to integrate later easily}; ALL other features/functions you see on this web site ([[login to view URL]][2]) are part of this current (my) project? Since the left side bar of my web site will be filled later (testimonials, newsletter sign up, free report) we need to discuss how to set up the web site in the beginning (i.e. I would have some quotes to place there to start with or we add the left side bar later) Owner of web site remains me (incl. source files, graphics, etc.) >>> Check out the following link to get a first impression. This web site was started by my neighbor (who quit his web design work due to illness). It’s NOT exactly what I want for a final version. You can get a feeling for the colors and the features. The text that I will deliver is revised and the logo will look different (more professional, too). The layout (font size, spaces, etc.) is terrible... it’s just a first draft: <[login to view URL]> <<< Your creativity is very welcome! The menu (buttons) can look different... surprise me! (It’s not necessary to have my audio welcome message on my home page as you can see/hear it in the link above) NOTE: Following is NOT part of this current project, but it must be able to be integrated at any time later. It’s not required that you do all of these features but they must be possible to add. Add-ons are: monthly newsletter set up incl. free report download / building database behind my web site (email list manager, auto responders > i.e. cost free [[login to view URL]][3]) menu button “Resources?? (for my articles) Self-Scoring Test tools and ideas for creating traffic on my sites !!! (SEO, keywords, etc.) traffic analysis Further future projects are: (if you don’t have the know-how someone else will be contracted, that’s absolutely OK) - audio and video integration membership web site mini sites for product sales (shopping cart / e-commerce integration) article submission social media (connecting to facebook, twitter etc. ***AND*** generating traffic to my web site via “smart?? social media activities) target market research (research online groups for my target market, research other places where my target market “hangs out?? - both online and offline) **Questions:** (if you don’t answer them I cannot make a decision for you) Can you give me some advise - before we start the project - in regards to choosing the right program/language/code/online web builder? (versus “selling?? me on one solution because that’s how you always do it)? Why do you consider yourself as a web designer with a graphic design talent? (please send some references that I can check out, i.e. wordpress pages) Do you have excellent English skills (spelling, vocabularies, grammar)? ? ? ? ? (I don’t expect you to be my copy writer, but you must be able to proof-read my English because my mother tongue is German) Are you interested in a long term relationship or are you doing the web development only on a short term basis? Preferred course of action: Start with a free test (no more than an hour), test required since there’s ongoing work for years to come (want for long term relationship) - please let me know if you’re motivated to do that; or offer alternatives how to figure out if we are a good fit (before we really go into the? project together) - What are your thoughts? What is your price and timeline? It is not required that you’re a specialist for all the add ons that will come later (see ‘note’) - please let me know what of the above mentioned add ons (in ‘note’) you can do professionally and what you cannot do (if you cannot do it, do you have contacts to people who can do it?) I’ve recently registered with Bluehost (annually), nothing is set up there yet, can you work with that? Are you confident to set up an Expert Guarantee? If yes, what conditions? Looking forward to hearing from you. Thanks. My other bids: Logo, bid# 1207506 Blog, bid# 1207509
