Replicate Website With SEO Focus

I need my existing website rebuilt from the ground up so it mirrors the current content and structure yet outperforms it in search rankings. The copy, images and overall page count will stay the same, but every template and asset must be refreshed into a modern-looking, fully responsive layout with a noticeably smoother user interface.

Throughout the rebuild, on-page SEO is the main driver. Clean code hierarchy, fast load times, schema markup, accessible HTML5/CSS3, and well-structured meta data all need to be baked in from day one so rankings can climb the moment we flip the switch. Google Search Console and Analytics integration should be part of the launch checklist.

Security comes right after SEO. The finished site must safeguard user privacy, protect any stored data, and include solid hardening steps against common hacks—HTTPS everywhere, well-configured headers, up-to-date plugins or packages, and a basic firewall/WAF rule set.

Deliverables at handover:
• Fully replicated site on the agreed CMS or framework, matching all existing pages
• Modern, responsive design and upgraded UI
• Technical on-page SEO implemented across every template
• Security hardening measures in place, documented for future maintenance

Once the replica is live, I’ll need periodic help refining SEO and applying security patches, so this can evolve into a long-term collaboration for the right professional.

Additionally:
1. The Author will also need complete access to the new Website.
2. Working with the author, the Freelancer must UPDATE many pages of the Website once a week.
