Modern WordPress website

I am looking for an experienced WordPress developer to build a modern, fast, and fully editable website using Elementor.

The website concept is a local business directory where users can find top businesses in their area (e.g. restaurants, services, etc.).

The key requirement is that I must be able to easily edit and manage the site myself after completion without coding.

- Built on WordPress using Elementor (or similar visual builder)
- Fully responsive (mobile, tablet, desktop)
- Clean, modern, professional design
- Fast loading speed

Pages & Features:

- Home page (customer-focused)
- Location/area pages
- Business listing page template (reusable)
- Blog / articles section (for SEO)

IMPORTANT:
The structure must allow me to easily add new locations and businesses using templates.

- SEO plugin setup (Yoast or RankMath)

Performance:

When applying, please answer:

1. What theme and plugins will you use?

3. How will you structure the site for scalability (adding more locations/businesses)?
4. What is included in your support after delivery?
5. Timeline and total cost?

If this project goes well, there will be ongoing work
