Looking For An API Web Developer To Create A Custom Travel Site With A Booking Engine

Job ID: 32088941

Budget: $1,500 – $3,000 USD

I'm looking for an API web developer who can make a custom website from scratch without using a CRM. It needs to be SUPER fast and get a 100 on Google's Pagespeed for Desktop and Mobile. The site will be for a Travel Agency and will have a booking engine - so you'll need to know how to work with booking engine APIs. Starting out the site will consist of 75 pages and I'll also need ongoing maintenance, so it's a longterm project. We can talk regarding this later on.

Requirements for this site:

Url Architecture (url sub directly = page title)(add booking engine widget to each page)(add icons with links to city pages in category pages)(please feel free to add more cities)
*be sure to specify a canonical page

Page Speed
Please ensure site speed is in the green for mobile and desktop using Google Pagespeed Insights: https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/

Page Architecture
H1: Best Flights To South East Asia
H2: Flights to India
H3: Flights to New Delhi, India
We offer the best flights to New Delhi at competitive prices, blah blah blah….
H2: Flights to Thailand
*please do not use H-tags as a way to format text, they are used to organize the content of the page, if you need to change text font for aesthetic reasons use p style
** please confirm site outline is properly visible to Search Engines here: https://gsnedders.html5.org/outliner/

Sitemap & Robots.txt
Be sure to create a sitemap and robots.txt file and specify which pages we prefer to be indexed vs pages we do not prefer (back-end pages, for example).

Design best practices
-keep call-to-action/user-action above the fold on Landing Pages (city pages) and Home Page.
-use images that reflect what the viewer will experience should they purchase a trip
-include social proof, keep it above the fold if possible
-include trust/security indicators (can be in footer, except for on payment pages)
-make the pages load fast, and I mean super fast
-add a lead magnet

Lead Magnet
Add a lead magnet that shows on all pages after 10-15 seconds on the page, make sure it is not intrusive and offers a relevant offer… for example: “The Top Ten Things To Do In Bangkok” or “Join Our List & Get The Best Deals Delivered To Your Inbox, And Get 10% Off Now!” etc.

Testimonial / Reviews Page
Besides adding testimonials to LPs, please have a page dedicated to this and reviews.
