I am need of a web guru to take over the ‘as needed’ development of my web site. The first project is to add about 20 products to the web site. The skills required are: PHP; HTML; Java; and CSS. We are a fairly new company who are still bringing on new product lines. The web site is built, the look and feel are as we like them and we have a cutom logo. What I need is someone to do the following:

A good candidate will be able to:
Add/delete products as required. Typically you will use the product graphics and text from our suppliers and put them into our web page layout
Add gadget buttons for facebook and twitter
Change/modify drop down menus as we continue to make our site very user friendly
Add a motion banner to the home page
Add ecommerce
Photoshop or some photo editor

An excellent candidate will also be able to:
Create product vieos as shown in these links to post on youtube

Optimize the site for Search Engine Optimization
Analyze the editorial impact of the site
Be consultative and make compelling ways to enrich the web site

Again, we will contract you on an add needed basis and you will tell us your price for each project. There will likely be several small projects.

The first project is to add about 20 products to the web site

Formal documentation - After talking back and forth, the worker creates a formal document and/or prototype, as follows: Prototype: The analyst will create a non-working mockup of all pages/screens in the final software.

There are many reasons for this including version incompatibility, restricted permissions, etc... Rent A Coder normally requires that the worker verify in advance that your 3rd party hosting provider will support the components.  If they do not, then they are responsible for any incompatibilities, rather than you.
