Modern 5-Page WordPress Site

I need a skilled WordPress developer who can deliver a professional, modern, and fully responsive website that looks and performs flawlessly on desktop, tablet, and mobile. The build includes five core pages—Home, About Us, Services, Blog, and Contact Us—and I want each page to load quickly, follow a clean visual hierarchy, and be easy for me to manage from the WordPress dashboard once the project is complete.

A few essentials you’ll handle along the way:
• Clean, minimalist layout that highlights my brand and keeps navigation intuitive.
• Built-in blog so I can publish articles and updates without touching code.
• Contact form that routes inquiries straight to my inbox.
• Basic on-page SEO setup (titles, meta descriptions, permalinks) so the site is search-friendly from day one.
• Performance tweaks—image optimisation, caching, and lightweight plugins—so pages load fast.

I’m open to using an off-the-shelf theme, a custom design, or your own recommended template, provided the result feels polished and professional. Please share recent WordPress projects that showcase similar work, outline your build process and timeline, and let me know any information you need from me before you start.
