### Project Overview **Business Name:** PedalPorter **Domain:** www.pedalporter.co.uk **Platform:** Squarespace (as I already use Squarespace Scheduling for my other business) **Budget:** Looking for an affordable solution as this is a new business.
### About PedalPorter PedalPorter is a new, eco-friendly bicycle delivery service focused on providing fast, reliable, and sustainable deliveries within the local community. We specialize in transporting small packages, groceries, and documents, using bicycles to minimize our environmental impact. Our service is ideal for individuals and businesses looking to reduce their carbon footprint while ensuring their parcels arrive quickly and securely.
### Website Objectives - **Brand Presentation:** Create a professional, clean, and modern website that reflects the eco-friendly and reliable nature of PedalPorter. - **Service Overview:** Clearly communicate the services we offer, including package delivery, errand running, and potential partnerships with local businesses. - **Booking Integration:** Seamlessly integrate with Squarespace Scheduling, allowing customers to book delivery services directly through the website. - **Local Focus:** Highlight our service areas (e.g., Kingston upon Thames, Hampton Court, East Molesey, Teddington, Richmond) and emphasize our commitment to supporting the local community. - **User Experience:** Ensure the website is user-friendly, easy to navigate, and optimized for both desktop and mobile devices. - **SEO and Visibility:** Implement basic SEO practices to help the site rank well in search engines, particularly for local searches related to eco-friendly delivery services.

### Design Preferences - **Color Scheme:** Incorporate green and white to reflect eco-friendliness, with accents of dark gray for contrast. - **Fonts:** Clean, modern, and easy-to-read fonts that align with our brand identity. - **Imagery:** Use images that highlight bicycles, urban environments, and sustainability themes.
### Additional Notes - I’m open to using a pre-designed Squarespace template to keep costs down, as long as it can be customized to fit our brand. - The site should be set up with a basic SEO foundation, including meta tags, alt text for images, and clean URLs. - Please provide a timeline and cost estimate for the project.
