Project Title

Urgent: PHP & WordPress Expert Needed to Recover Bluehost.com Website and Resolve some PHP Compatibility Issues (Payment on Successful Recovery)

Project Description

My website www.nirvanam.jp is currently down and needs urgent recovery.

Based on the initial investigation, the issue appears to be related to a combination of DNS configuration and a PHP version upgrade on the Bluehost hosting environment. After the hosting provider upgraded the PHP version, several functions of the website stopped working, resulting in the site becoming inaccessible.

I am looking for an experienced PHP, WordPress, and Bluehost hosting expert who can diagnose the root cause, resolve all compatibility issues, and restore the website to full working condition.

Scope of Work

The selected freelancer will be required to:

Log in to the Bluehost Control Panel (cPanel).
Diagnose the exact cause of the website outage.
Resolve all PHP version compatibility issues.
Update or modify PHP code where required.
Fix any deprecated PHP functions or plugin/theme compatibility issues.
Verify and correct DNS settings if necessary.
Restore the website so that it functions exactly as before.
Ensure all pages, forms, menus, and website functionality work correctly.
Check website error logs and eliminate PHP errors and warnings.
Take a complete backup before making any changes.
Recommend any additional improvements required for long-term stability.
AI Readiness (Important)

As part of this project, I also want the website to be optimized so that AI models such as ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, and other AI assistants can better understand and reference the content.

This includes implementing or verifying best practices such as:

AI-friendly website structure.
Proper robots.txt configuration.
XML sitemap verification.
Structured data (Schema.org) implementation where appropriate.
Semantic HTML improvements.
Clear metadata.
Implementation of emerging AI discovery standards (such as llms.txt if appropriate).
Any other technical recommendations that improve AI discoverability and indexing.
Skills Required

WordPress
Bluehost Hosting

DNS Configuration
Apache / .htaccess

Website Recovery
Plugin & Theme Troubleshooting
SEO Technical Knowledge
AI Search Optimization / Structured Data
Deliverables

The project will be considered complete only when:

Website is fully operational.
All PHP errors have been resolved.
Website functionality has been restored.
DNS issues (if any) are resolved.
Website is stable on the current PHP version.
AI-readiness improvements have been implemented.
A summary report of all changes made is provided.
Payment Terms

Payment will be made only after the website has been successfully recovered and all PHP-related issues have been resolved to my satisfaction.

If the website cannot be restored, no payment will be made.
