Here’s my site:
http://ultralightstartups.com/
I maintain/manage this site myself and intend to continue to do so. I just need someone to help with an upgrade (and maybe additional projects down the line)
I need to do the following:
– Migrate from Hostgator to Dreamhost
– Migrate from Thesis 1.8 to Genesis
– Update/sanity check all plugins and widgets (add/remove as necessary)
– Setup a local version on my Mac for quick editing
– Understand the basics of Genesis and select an appropriate theme
– Improve the look & feel (using an off-the-shelf theme, not a custom design)
– Add a few features (2nd level navigation, different email capture lightbox, etc)
– Review/implement general WP best practices (backups, upgrades, organization, SEO, performance, etc)
The ideal person for this:
– Is located in NYC and able to meet face to face, at least occasionally
– Has done this sort of project before and can provide references
– Is a low-maintenance, easy to get along with, and a good communicator
