Request for Proposals: Bruner Blog Redesign

I am hereby soliciting proposals for a technical overhaul and redesign of Bruner Blog. These are the changes I would like to make to it:

  • Move and activate entire Bruner.net site contents and Bruner Blog 5-year archive to a new web host. I’m partial to GoDaddy, but open to ideas.


  • Implement new blog structure in WordPress instead of MovableType. (Or, if you really want to make a case for sticking with MT, give it a try, but I’m not much interested in other platforms.)


  • Redesign Bruner Blog with fresh look.


  • Optimize the blog design for search engines (e.g., use title as archive URL, etc.)

I can afford to pay what I would consider reasonable for this project, but please also bear in mind this blog is relatively high profile: it still gets a few hundred visits a day even after three months of no new posts; it’s got a lot of in-bound lnks, and B-List blogger status on Blogebrity.com. I’ll happily put a link to your site crediting you with the design in my blog template.

To respond with a proposal, please send an email to rickbruner at gmail dot com, and put “Bruner Blog RFP” in the subject line. Show me examples of your previous blog designs and give me a sense of your expertise in this area. I don’t want to deal with beginners, no offense. I want someone who has real blog setup and design chops. Quote me a price and add any other comments or questions you have there.

Thanks!
