Website Developer for Short term Rental Direct Booking Site
Worldwide
**Website Developer Needed — Short-Term Rental Direct Booking Site (Hostaway)** We're CliqStays, a furnished short-term rental company operating across Toronto, New York, and Ottawa. We manage 20+ professionally styled properties and run a direct booking model — guests book with us directly instead of through Airbnb or Booking.com. We're looking for an experienced web developer to redesign and rebuild our website on the Hostaway website builder platform. We have a full, detailed brief ready to go — including complete copy for every page and page-by-page specifications. You are building to our brief, not starting from scratch. **What we need built** Our new website requires the following pages: — Homepage with hero, search bar, trust section, listings, city tiles, and reviews — All listings page with sidebar filters, sorting, and property cards — Individual property pages with photo gallery, description, amenities, booking widget, and reviews — Destination landing pages for Toronto, New York, and Ottawa (SEO-focused) — Corporate stays page targeting business travellers and relocating employees — About us page — FAQ page with live search bar and accordion items — Blog/article template (first post provided) — Privacy policy page — Contact page All page copy has been written and is provided to you. You do not need to write or source any content. **Technical requirements** The site must be built on Hostaway's website builder. You must have direct experience with the Hostaway platform or similar — please do not apply if you haven't worked with it before. Beyond the Hostaway build, you'll need to implement: — VacationRental JSON-LD schema markup on all property pages — FAQPage schema on the FAQ page — LocalBusiness schema on the homepage — Custom meta titles and descriptions on every page — Clean, keyword-based URL slugs — XML sitemap and Google Search Console setup — Google Analytics 4 integration — Page speed optimisation (target: 80+ mobile on PageSpeed Insights) — Mobile-first responsive design across all pages **Current website** Cliqstays.com Website Backend is already setup and live. Only UI work is needed to align with comparable websites such as Kasa.com and Blueground.com The design expectation is modern, clean, and premium. **What we're looking for** We need someone who has built on Hostaway's website builder or similar platform before and can tell us upfront what is and isn't achievable within the platform. We'd rather know the limitations early than discover them mid-build. Ideal candidates will have a portfolio of short-term rental or hospitality websites, experience with SEO structured data implementation, and strong attention to design detail. In your proposal, please include: — Examples of Hostaway websites or similar you have built — Your approach to implementing schema markup within Hostaway — Your estimated timeline for an 8-page build of this scope — Your fixed price or hourly rate The full developer brief (Word document) will be shared with shortlisted candidates. Project timeline target is 4–6 weeks from start to launch. Looking forward to working with someone who takes both design and technical SEO seriously.
