Simple search engine optimized website set up (home page, About, Blog, NO opt-in or sales page)

SEO optimized Website development and ongoing onsite and off site SEO Job Description:I am hiring for a first project to design a simple, search engine (on-site and off-site) optimized site. The wireframe and content for an initial home page, about page, and blog will be provided. I have a preferred design template that I already own but am open to recommendations. I want to drive local search optimization for this site. The initial site will not include an opt-in form, landing page, or sales page. After a good working experience, I will expand the project to include set up of an additional new site, expansion of this first project website, and maintenance of a third site, as well as SEO work for all three. No black hat techniques for search placement are acceptable. Content from the blog and other site pages are the main sources for SEO. Of top importance to me in a web developer are - I can trust that you will follow through on the schedule and requirements we agree to with a website you are proud to have in your portfolio - User experience on the site is optimal - Aesthetics of the site supports a professional and contemporary image - Everything works and keeps working - Ongoing support is reasonable and timely - You advise of the best approach if I make a request that could be done a better way - Find the simplest approach to deliver the best result - Great with small business owners vs. corporate projects - I am not a fan of bureaucracy or over-management. I prefer to work with the person doing the work. - Complete trust, of course, is essential. Content and wireframe, as well as URL, keyword strategy, hosting, and design template are all available immediately for the right developer to get started. An example of site designs I like include [login to view URL] [login to view URL] For a future iteration of the site: [login to view URL]
