Now, before any of you out-a-work techies/construction workers with tech skills get too excited.....

It's NOT a high $$ job. I actually am just looking for a person who can lay down the basics of a Wordpress(or other) website shell that I can add the content to. Hope that makes sense, but if not, I further add:

The problem, is that everyone says making a website with Wordpress is "really simple!" Well, not for me, it ain't. I just Do.Not get it. I have tied. Several times.

- I have a domain(http://www.climbaddictdesigns.com) registered.
- I have hosting(with Bluehost.com)
- I have tried, and I tried, and I tried, tried, tried tried, tried(to create WP website), but I can't get me no satisfaction. I follow the directions, and get lost. Repeatedly.

I am somewhat familiar with web and html crap, and have Jpegs with the various logos and such I use all over the place. I have a color theme, and know the categories(pages) I want. They are:
- Home
- Shop (link to existing online store)
- Secondary Shop Page (opens to page which explains the existing secondary shop, with a "click here to go there" button)
- Blog (links to existing blog)
- About (do not yet have copy, but as you can see, I suffer from logorrhea, so that shouldn't be much trouble)
- Contact(with link to existing email address)
- Twitter and Facebook Icons(which link to existing profiles on same)

The site in itself will not have e-commerce. It would link to Print-in-demand sites which handle all those aspects.

I assume I would need to supply some items up front for you to lay in place - the general logo, colors, a sketch of layout concept....

If someone can lay down the basic WP template with those pages in place, I believe I *should* be able to fill them in with the content.

BUT! I am willing to listen to reason. I also know that people often want a website on the cheap, and don't want to pay for the work that is involved. I do hope I am not coming off as one of those types - I DO need it on the cheap, but I also believe that this set up does allow me to do most of the work. I'm not looking to take advantage of someone and drag them down with add-ons after they've agreed to one thing, but at this stage I don't have the income to pay for a multi-thousand dollar site, nor do I need one(nor does the business support one... sob, sob!).


So - If anyone is interested in this, and would like to give it a go, please contact me through the PM thing here within the forum with a general idea as to what you think would be needed, what you would like to have in compensation, and/or any questions you need an answer to decide if you have interest.


Thank you.

Terrie, I've never used WordPress, but I've done some website work and used other website tools before. I'll be up all next week, why don't you come over for a while with your laptop and I'll have a look at it. No guarantees, but no charge either. And bring a bathing suit if you want to take a break and sip some mojitos by the pool. :-)

How much are you willing to pay?
