I’m refreshing my site and need a developer-designer who can marry speed, accessibility and a timeless, classic aesthetic. The content will be almost entirely text-based articles, so clean typography, clear hierarchy and rock-solid readability sit at the heart of the build. Here’s the vision • Lightning-fast load times on every device, scoring 90 + on Lighthouse mobile. • Fully responsive layouts that feel native whether viewed on a phone, tablet or widescreen monitor. • Strict conformance with WCAG 2.1 AA: colour contrast, keyboard navigation, ARIA landmarks, descriptive links—every audit box ticked. • A classic, traditional design language: elegant serif or transitional fonts, understated colour palette, balanced white space, minimal motion. Scope of work You’ll craft a lightweight theme or template set, wire it to the CMS you’re most comfortable with (WordPress, Statamic, Hugo—whatever keeps the code lean), and deliver five core page types: Home, Article, About, Archive/Blog listing and Contact. All templates must validate for semantic HTML5 and pass both automated and manual accessibility checks. Deliverables • Responsive HTML/CSS/JS (or CMS theme) for the five page types • WCAG 2.1 AA compliance report with testing notes • Performance test results with optimisation summary • Short editor guide covering heading structure, alt text, and publishing workflow Timeline A first interactive prototype within 7 days of kickoff, final hand-off—including documentation—no later than two weeks after that. If you thrive on elegant code, accessibility best practices and classic design principles, I’m ready to get started.

Hi there I can build a fast, accessible, timeless, content-focused website with clean typography, semantic HTML5, responsive layouts, and a classic visual style.

I can deliver the first interactive prototype within 7 days and complete the final handoff within the following two weeks. Two questions: Do you already have the CMS/content structure selected, or should I recommend the leanest option? Do you have any existing brand fonts, colours, or reference websites for the classic aesthetic? Thanks Rahul

Hello, Your focus on a fast, text-led website with a classic visual language and rigorous WCAG 2.1 AA standards is an excellent direction.

I’ll also structure the CMS templates and editor guidance so headings, alt text, links, and publishing remain accessible as the site grows. A useful improvement would be adding a lightweight automated accessibility and performance check to the publishing workflow, alongside manual keyboard and screen-reader testing. Regards Muhammad

Making this site work comes down to building a lightweight custom WordPress theme that pairs classic typography with strict WCAG 2.1 AA accessibility so your text articles shine. We start by designing the five core page types with elegant serif fonts and generous white space. You get to review and approve the visual layout before a single line of code is written. I will build the frontend using semantic HTML5 and clean CSS to keep the code lean and lightning fast. WordPress handles the backend so your team can easily manage articles using clear heading structures and alt text. Every page goes through rigorous automated and manual testing to hit over 90 on Lighthouse mobile. I record a walkthrough video and write a simple editor guide before we launch your site. You release milestone payments only after each stage is fully completed and approved by you. Let us have a quick chat about your vision before you award the project. Salma

When a site demands speed, accessibility, and a classic aesthetic, the real challenge lie in harmonizing these elements without compromising performance or user experience. To address any concerns about losing existing content or SEO during this process, I will work on a staging environment, making sure your live site remains untouched throughout development. Safe staging build: full site built on a private staging area first, live site untouched. Responsive design: five core page types crafted for optimal viewing on all devices. Accessibility compliance: thorough WCAG 2.1 AA checks with a detailed report provided. Performance optimization: tests conducted to achieve high scores on Lighthouse. I will deliver the first prototype within 7 days and complete the project in 2 weeks. My rate for this project is 21 USD. Are there any specific design elements or branding assets you want to incorperate into the templates? Rajavel
