We are looking for a WordPress/WooCommerce developer to rebuild an existing website https://skyblue-koala-715000.hostingersite.com/ from scratch using only default features of WordPress, Gutenberg, the WooCommerce Storefront theme, and WooCommerce’s built-in features.
Our goal is not to design or create a new, sophisticated, fancy, highly customized website. We just want a simple, stable, low-maintenance version of our existing website but with working features such as Login Me Now and FluentForms.
The website should be built around the following principles:
1. Build from Scratch
Rebuild an existing website from the ground up, from a clean default installation of Wordpress etc
2. Default WordPress, Gutenberg, Storefront, and WooCommerce Features
The site should use:
We want the site to be easy for our team to maintain and adjust without needing a developer.
3. No Elementor and Similar Page Builders
Do not use Elementor, WPBakery, Divi, or similar page builders. Read that again.
We want to keep the site lightweight and stable using standard WordPress/WooCommerce features so the site is easy to use and future updates are less likely to cause conflicts.
Yes, we realize that many developers prefer Elementor etc - and that Elementor offer many design features - but that's ok: we prefer a simple website even if it is not as fancy
4. Only Necessary Plugins
We understand that some features require plugins and installed plugins should be limited to specific, justified needs that are not available by default in WordPress or WooCommerce.
Examples:
Login Me Now for passwordless registration and sign-in
Rank Math SEO
Simple History
Site Kit by Google
FluentSMTP
FluentForm
SMTP/email delivery configuration
Advanced Shipment Tracking for WooCommerce
Basic security, backup, or compliance plugins as needed
We do not want unnecessary design, animation, popup, funnel, bloated marketing, or page-builder plugins.
5. Website Design, Pages, Structure and Content
The site should closely follow and reuse the structure, graphics and text of our existing website
6. Low-Maintenance, Low-Risk Build
The main technical goal is a website that is easy to update and unlikely to break during normal WordPress, WooCommerce, theme, or plugin updates. Custom code should be kept to a minimum and as part of a child theme.
Please reply with your approximate time and cost estimate. We hope to have the website rebuilt as quickly as possible.
