Project Overview

Rhodium Technologies LLC (Rhodium) is seeking to hire Brandit, LLC (Brandit) to build Rhodiummining.io from the ground up. The goal of this project will be to create an engaging, interactive website with a modern, technology-forward design that will empower Rhodium’s team to easily publish content using a validated WordPress page builder and plugin framework.

Our Approach

We use a validated process for all project engagements. This process is designed to help us dig into the details of your business and industry during discovery in order to create the messaging and interactive designs that capture your brand in a beautiful, high-converting website.

Timing

The site should launch within 14 days from the initial discovery meeting. Timing is subject to approvals and content being provided in a timely manner.

Statement of Work and Estimates

Price estimates are based on initial objectives and may change as mutually agreed upon tasks and objectives change. Cost estimates and payment schedules are provided in two milestones.

2x Expedited Design & Development Rhodiummining.io (5-8 pages) using Brandit’s WordPress Framework

Total Estimated Cost: $8,200

Milestone 1 – Discovery, Content Strategy, Home & Internal Page Design
50% Deposit ($4100) of Total Project Fee is Due to Start Work Weeks

Brandit and the Rhodium will schedule at least two discovery calls that may be followed by additional phone calls and emails to discuss the core strategy and goals of the design project. During the first milestone Brandit will provide the following service:

• Confirm site requirements for branding and design as well as sitemap and functionality.
• Define any plugins or additional development needed to execute on website deliverables that are not already existing in the current theme such as Google Tag Manager, contact forms, etc.

Week 1 – Design

Brandit will spin up a development server on our platform and begin our initial design and development sprint. During this period, Brandit will perform the following services:

• Work closely with the Rhodium team to create a finalized homepage design. This home page sets the tone and design style for other internal pages on the website.
• Customize and configure the themes, user experiences, and content organizations. Mobile views of the website’s design will vary based on screen size and platform and will not look exactly the same for all users. However, all designs will be fully responsive and take a mobile-first approach.
• Create initial internal page layout and design using the Divi page builder on the development environment.
• Site Development, Internal Page Design, and 3rd Party Integration
• Install and start configuration for any additional plugins needed for site functionality and 3rd party integrations as defined during Discovery.
• Create graphics for headers as needed using Adobe Stock and content provided by Rhodium.

Milestone 2: Website Launch, Post-Launch Setup and Training
We’ll begin work after 100% of the total project fee ($8200) has been deposited. Weeks 2

Weeks 2

After the initial designs have been sent over to you, the next weeks will include the design of unique features, revision rounds, speed optimization, SEO. During these weeks, Brandit will provide the following services:
