I need a personal website for my wife, who is a public speaker, and editor, and a speech writer. We will provide the content for the site (images and text will be provided). I will prefer a php based Ajax website, which is SEO friendly or a very attractive web2.0 style website with SEO firendliness. The site will PROBABLY have only 5 pages:
1. Home— this page will have basic images, short comments, and brief paragraphs. On the right side, you will display the calendar to illustrate the dates she is already booked for.
2. About Her or Bio— a brief bio about her, and comments from previous clients and colleagues.
3. Services— this page will list all of the services she offers on one side and on the other side, list the places or events she spoke at.
4. Book Her or Schedule Her— this page will display a “WHY Hire Me” explanation (we will provide the text content for this). This page will also provide the frame work for visitor to sign accept the contract before doing business with my wife. There will be NO online payment transactions. Once users accept the contract, they will be mailed a pdf file (the contract) to print, sign, and mail with the check or deposit. The admin section will keep a record of the pdf form mailed, who it was emailed to, date, time, and for what event.
5. Contact Us— this page will have the standard contact us form and a field asking user how they found out about the site. This page will also have a link to the FAQs and another link to her contract us policy.
I have decided to ignore the payment processing on the site. We will just give users the mailing address and simple instruction to sent their checks to. This should decrease your bid drastically because the site should be very EASY to do. The most important thing is making an EXCEPTIONALLY BEAUTIFUL DESIGN and a great admin section for editing, displaying calendar, documenting contracts, and contacting clients. All of these are SIMPLE, if you are the right person for the job. Please show me ONLY 5 sample form your portfolio. I do not want to see your entire portfolio.
