Expected duration: 1 - 6 months
I want quotes for a new Wordpress website. I run a charity which publishes a hobby magazine and sells a range of merchandise in a shop. The project should be straightforward for an experienced designer but I want good service and ideally someone with a good development background. You should have experience of developing sites from planning to launch. There will be three main functions which may be reflected in three basic page template styles: 1) company information, contact us, etc; (c.4-6 pages) 2) a number of attractive, static discovery articles (with significant text and photos) about the area we work in (c.6-10); 3) a number of small product profile pages (c20-30) to act as a shop-front (the merchandise shop itself is hosted on a separate PHP site with our dynamic content, but that is functional rather than attractive).
The current website is old, runs with Joomla, and is unhelpfully intertwined with a second, WP-based site. My proposal is to set up the new site separately (potentially on a new domain) and then deal with deconstructing the old one as a separate project. You will therefore need to be able to set up a site from scratch and consult/advise me on technical options. If we work well on this project there may well be further work on projects such as deconstructing the old website and revamping the second site. We may end up involving our (volunteer) PHP developers in discussion.
A training phase will also be necessary once the site is built, probably for two or three office staff.
As for the design elements, we have a fairly strong brand with a number of assets ready, but they are somewhat old-fashioned. The old website is at www.ringingworld.co.uk
Please respond with some examples of your work and some technical description of your thoughts on the project, as well as a quote. |
