WordPress Website Designer Needed for Deck Builder - Local SEO + GoHighLevel Integration

I’m hiring an experienced WordPress designer to build a clean, conversion-focused website for Deck Oasis, a new custom deck company serving Tyler and East Texas. This will be a small initial website, but it needs to be built correctly so it can grow into a strong local SEO asset. I’m not looking for a heavily customized or overengineered site. I want something fast, professional, easy to manage and designed to generate quote requests. The ideal freelancer understands three things: WordPress design Local SEO for home-service businesses GoHighLevel form and CRM integration Initial website scope Build and launch four pages: Home Custom Decks About Get a Quote The site should also be structured for future additions, including: Project gallery Composite deck page Covered deck and pergola pages Deck-repair page Tyler, Longview, Lindale, Bullard and other service-area pages Blog content Home page should include Strong headline and value proposition Overview of services Why choose Deck Oasis Simple project process Service area FAQ Clear quote-request calls to action Temporary testimonial or review section that can be updated later Custom Decks page should include Pressure-treated wood decks Composite decks Deck replacements Stairs and railings Covered-deck or outdoor-living options Benefits of professional on-site construction Calls to action About page should establish Owner-led local business Existing construction and custom-building experience Connection to an established shed-building company Commitment to quality, communication and customer experience The fact that Deck Oasis is a new brand, not an inexperienced builder Get a Quote page The quote form should collect: Name Phone number Email City Project type Approximate dimensions Wood or composite preference Project timeline Optional photo upload Additional project details Submissions must enter GoHighLevel correctly and be tested before launch. Technical requirements WordPress installed and configured Responsive mobile design Lightweight theme or builder Good page speed SSL and domain connection verified Basic security and backup setup Minimal and well-supported plugins Full admin ownership transferred to me No proprietary platform that prevents another developer from editing the site No ongoing maintenance contract required SEO requirements Keyword-informed headings and page copy Correct H1/H2/H3 structure Unique title tags and meta descriptions Clean URLs Image optimization and alt text Internal links XML sitemap Local-business schema Google Analytics connection Google Search Console connection Site submitted for indexing No keyword stuffing or duplicate city pages Content and imagery I can provide information about the company, service area and customer process. I will need the freelancer to organize the content professionally and improve the wording where necessary. Because the business is newly launched, there is not yet a large deck portfolio. Properly licensed stock photos may be used temporarily. I need to know the source and licensing status of every image used. Budget Fixed-price budget: $400–$700 Please do not apply if the project cannot be completed within this range without surprise charges. Any premium theme, builder, plugin or stock-image costs must be identified in the proposal before hiring.
