Experienced Directory Website Designer

I need a fully-functional online directory devoted to business listings and I need it finished as soon as possible. The site must let companies create and manage their own profiles, display key details (name, address, phone, map, social links), and appear in fast, filterable search results. A responsive design is essential so visitors enjoy the same smooth experience on mobile and desktop.

You are free to work in WordPress with a premium directory theme and custom child theme, or to propose another framework (Laravel, Django, custom React front-end, etc.) if you can deliver the same ease of use and SEO strengths. Whichever stack you choose, an intuitive admin area for bulk import/export of listings, user moderation, banner ad slots, and Google Analytics integration must be included.

Please outline the similar directory sites you have already completed, highlighting the tech stacks used and any performance or SEO wins you achieved—your proven experience will weigh heaviest in my selection. Once we agree on scope, I will expect:

• A staging link in the first 48 hours so I can follow progress
• Complete build with sample data and all core pages (Home, Category, Listing, Add-Listing, Contact) ready for review
• Final migration to my live server plus a short hand-over video or call

Speed is critical, so let me know your earliest start time and realistic timeline to launch. I’m ready to move forward immediately with the right person.
