Description:



We run an influential B2B blog (BrandSuicide) with excellent Google rankings and
want to move platform so we can accept advertising in 2005.

We need to find a developer or agency to work with us in designing and building
a blog platform that will support advertising, user registration and email
newsletters/alerts.

You will ideally be adept at design AND development, but we'll consider working
with you if you have skills in the following areas (or if you are a white-hot
designer - this is a very cool project that would sit nicely in any portfolio).

Here's an overview of what we need:

1. CMS - blog publishing system. We're very interested in dynamic content, so
skills in that area would be very encouraging.

2. Ad serving - we will start accepting IAB formats as we've ad sales
representation by a US agency eager to place ads on BS. We want to be able to
serve ads in line with keywords / in context with surrounding content.

3. User registration / log in / user profile admin. Ability for editors to
segment users for email marketing initiatives.

4. Automated newsletters (featuring IAB-format ads) and alerts. We'd rather not
create a newsletter everyday, but use a template that would aggregate the day's
news stories.

5. Mutliple-level admin - editor, writer, user etc.

6. RSS feeds.

7. Metadata for content.

8. URL flattening so that headlines appear in the address.

9. User database - must log browse, click & interaction history as well as
inbuilt web stats (search referrals, page views, search terms). We want to
segment users and ultimately work towards personalisation.

10. Footer.

11. Search tools.

12. User interface - links, navigation, content display.

13. Uber-cool look and feel - we like clean, modern, white-background blogs,
sans-serif fonts etc.

14. Accessible and usable. We hope you subscribe to Alertbox.

15. Our development partner must be able to migrate the existing blog from the
20six platform, ideally preserving search links in the process. Please provide
guidance on this in your quote.

16. Affiliate marketing - Amazon for books etc.

If you apply for this you MUST quote, even if it is a range, based on the
above. We also want a firm indication of how long it would take you to complete
this, and payment terms.

We really want to work with a London-based developer or agency, as it would be
easier to implement. We will entertain applications from the UK.

The prospects for this blog are very good (we have some firm interest from B2B
advertisers) so more projects on a similar blog/publishing theme are in the
offing.

If you are interested, please contact us and ask for Alex. And don't forget to
quote as we'll reply to everybody who quotes and meets our stated requirements.
We're looking to start work on this in January. Good luck!
