I’m launching a WordPress site devoted to my own personal-story blog and want it ready for readers from day one. The core goal is straightforward: a clean, responsive space where I can publish posts easily and engage with my audience. Here’s what I need you to handle: • Theme selection or lightweight custom theme design that matches a personal-story vibe and keeps loading times quick. • Full blog configuration in WordPress (Gutenberg or Elementor blocks are both fine). • Built-in comment section that’s spam-protected yet simple for visitors to use. • Visible social-media sharing buttons on every post so readers can share stories in a click. • An email-subscription setup (Mailchimp, Sendinblue or similar) with a signup form placed unobtrusively but effectively. • Basic on-page SEO and a how-to sheet showing me how to create and optimise future posts. • Mobile and tablet responsiveness checks before hand-off. Acceptance criteria: the site must load without errors on the latest versions of Chrome, Safari and Firefox; comments, sharing buttons and subscription form must be fully functional; and I should be able to draft, publish and format a post unaided after your walkthrough. If you’ve built personable, reader-friendly WordPress blogs before, I’d love to see an example and get this moving quickly.
