Hi There,
I had gone through each link that you have provided. We just have few concerns.
Relevant Skills and Experience
Graphic Design, HTML, PHP, Website Design, WordPress
Proposed Milestones
$670 USD - Milestone will be discussed with you
Wordpress is fairly good platform, we can choose suitable theme and if needed modify the theme as per your requirement. But as it is a directoty website, first please let me know
How many data will be their in your website? As wordpress database structure cannot handle too much data load. So, if you have 1 million or above data, then you must have Custom php Development with laravel framework
In this case, either we can purchase a template (only for design) or we can design PSD mock up as per your requirement and then after your confirmation we will make HTML implementation of those PSD mockup.
So, please just give us a little clue, how you are thinking in this scenario.
Thank you and I look forward to the opportunity to work with you.
