Therapy Website Build – WordPress (Krystal Hosting, Elementor, Astra)
Project Overview:
I am seeking an experienced WordPress developer to build a clean, fast, and professional website for my therapy business. I have purchased hosting and a domain through Krystal Hosting, and WordPress is already installed via cPanel. You will be given Admin access to begin setup and design. The website must be easy for me to update and expand in the future.
What I Need:
A self-hosted WordPress website built on Krystal Hosting (WordPress already installed)
Design style: warm, cosy, attractive, and therapeutic — homely yet professional
Incorporate my existing logo (subject to future refinement)
Use only free, open-source themes and plugins (e.g., Astra theme, Elementor Free)
Fully responsive and mobile-friendly design
Pages required at launch:
Home
About
Services (with separate pricing for Hypnotherapy and Psychotherapy 1-to-1 sessions)
Contact (with a simple, user-friendly contact form)
Referrals (interactive directory of trusted therapists with profiles, descriptions, and links)
Workshops (for upcoming face-to-face group sessions — info-only at launch)
Also include:
Basic SEO setup (metadata, sitemap, and Google Analytics with opt-in only)
Placeholder or hidden Blog page, ready for future use (not yet in main menu)
Setup of one custom email (e.g. serhan@thetherapycorner.net) via Krystal, and help connecting it to Gmail if possible
Install and configure a free, reputable WordPress security plugin (e.g. Wordfence or Sucuri)
Ensure future-proofing: I must be able to add blogs, podcasts, and new pages myself
Provide a one-time tutorial (video or written) on how to edit and maintain the website
Offer 2–3 rounds of revisions to refine the final look and feel
Full handover of website credentials and access upon completion
What I’m Looking For:
Proven experience building self-hosted WordPress websites (portfolio required)
Familiarity with cPanel hosting environments (Krystal preferred but not essential)
Excellent communication skills and responsiveness
A design process that keeps non-technical users in mind
Professional approach and respect for timelines and quality
GDPR Compliance (UK + EU):
Please ensure the site meets GDPR standards by including:
SSL/HTTPS (Krystal provides this — make sure it’s active site-wide)
Cookie Consent banner with clear Accept/Reject (e.g. CookieYes or Complianz)
GDPR-compliant contact form with consent checkbox
Privacy Policy page (content will be provided)
No trackers or analytics tools should be installed without prior opt-in
Timeline & Budget:
Please provide an estimated timeframe and fixed-price quote.
Budget: £200–£400 depending on scope and experience. Open to offers that reflect the project’s needs and value.
How to Apply:
Share examples of WordPress websites you have built
Briefly describe your approach to making the site easy to edit for a non-technical user
Confirm your experience with Krystal Hosting or similar cPanel setups
A Personal Note:
This website matters deeply to me — it's not just about my business, but about helping people take steps into a vulnerable space. I want the site to feel inviting, safe, and professional. I’m happy to stay actively involved, provide content, and answer questions throughout.
Thank you for your time — I look forward to working with someone who can bring this to life with care and clarity. |
