Rustic Hunting Brand Website for Ruckus Outdoors
Budget: $250 – $750 USD
I already own the domain and hosting on GoDaddy and have made a small start there, but I need a professional to take it the rest of the way. The site’s look and feel should mirror our hunting-and-outdoor vibe—think rustic and rugged rather than glossy and minimal. Our logo and its colour palette are fixed, so the design needs to build around those elements.
Core pages
• Home – hero banner, the most current YouTube video set to pop up or play in-place, a short channel teaser, and a row of featured T-shirts that click through to the full shop.
• Events – space where I can post write-ups, photo galleries or recaps of shows, expos or charity shoots.
• Shop – full catalogue of branded apparel; please configure sizes, inventory tracking and secure checkout.
• Hunt Calendar – embeddable or easy-to-update calendar showing upcoming hunts so followers can see where we’ll be next.
• Links – badges or icons for YouTube, TikTok, Instagram and Facebook (open in new tab).
Functionality I need from you
• Build on GoDaddy (WordPress + WooCommerce or GoDaddy Website Builder—whichever delivers the smoothest store experience).
• Mobile-responsive layout that keeps the rugged aesthetic.
• Payment gateway setup (Stripe or PayPal preferred).
• Basic SEO and speed optimisation so video and shop sections load fast even when viewers are out in the field on spotty connections.
• A quick walkthrough or short loom video at hand-off so I can update products, swap videos and add new hunts myself.
Acceptance criteria
1. Site launches without console errors, broken links or layout shifts on current Chrome, Safari and Edge.
2. Latest YouTube video auto-embeds by playlist/ID or can be swapped in seconds through the dashboard.
3. “Add to Cart” flow completes a test purchase successfully.
4. Colours match supplied brand style sheet within a 1-2 hex variance.
5. All social icons link correctly and open in new tabs.
If this sounds like the sort of build you can knock out confidently, let’s talk timeline and milestones.
