Description:
I’m looking for an experienced web designer to help me create a community-focused website and email newsletter platform inspired by the success of https://frontporchforum.com, but targeted at a different region. The goal is to build an interactive platform that connects local residents, fosters community engagement, and serves as a trusted source of local information, recommendations, and conversations.

Project Requirements

1. Website Design & Development:
- Clean & User-Friendly Interface: Create an intuitive and visually appealing website with a focus on ease of use for local users.
- Community Forums: Develop forums or message boards where users can post announcements, ask questions, and discuss local topics.
- Search Functionality: Enable users to search for specific posts, local events, or businesses within the site.
- Neighborhood Groups: Implement a system where users can join specific local groups (based on neighborhoods or interests).
- Event Calendar: Add an easy-to-navigate calendar for local events, meetings, and activities.
- Responsive Design: Ensure the website is fully responsive, providing a seamless experience across desktop, tablet, and mobile devices.
- Local Business Directory: Include an option for local businesses to create profiles or ads to reach the community.
- Privacy & Security: Strong privacy settings for users, with easy account management and moderation capabilities.

2. Email Newsletter:
- Subscription-Based Model: Allow users to sign up for email newsletters based on location and interests.
- Customizable Newsletters: Design a newsletter template that can be customized to highlight local news, events, and relevant community information.
- Email List Management: Ensure a user-friendly backend system for managing subscriptions, segmented lists, and targeted email campaigns.
- Integration: Ensure the email platform integrates with the website so that posts, events, and community discussions can be automatically incorporated into the newsletter.

3. Branding & Design:
- Branding Creation: Help create a unique and appealing brand identity for the platform (logo, color scheme, typography).
- Consistent Aesthetic: Design a cohesive look and feel for both the website and newsletter to ensure visual consistency.

Skills Needed

- Web design and development (preferably using platforms like WordPress, Squarespace, or custom HTML/CSS).
- Experience creating community-based websites or social platforms.
- Strong understanding of UX/UI design principles for local communities.
- Knowledge of email marketing tools (Mailchimp, SendGrid, etc.) and integration.
- Ability to design visually appealing and functional newsletters.
- Attention to detail in terms of user privacy and data protection.

Additional Information

- The target audience will be residents of a specific region, so local focus is crucial.
- The website will need to be scalable as the community grows, with features like paid subscriptions or premium listings possibly added later.
- The aim is to replicate the success of Front Porch Forum in terms of fostering a vibrant, trusted, and engaged online community.
