The Ghost Pro account is active and set up. Need a skilled developer to select/customize a high-end, fast, modern tech theme, configure site architecture, set up static pages, configure our automated weekly email newsletter, and build TWO separate, independent AI-powered publishing workflows (one for daily SEO blog posts and one for YouTube video conversions). Zentrasi is a brand focused on helping business owners, entrepreneurs, and professionals use AI to automate workflows, boost productivity, and grow smarter. Content centers on practical B2B AI strategies — tutorials, tool recommendations, case studies, and insights on advanced AI/automation systems. YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@ZentrASI IMPORTANT: To prove you have read and understood this job post, please start the very first line of your proposal with the word "ZENTRASI-Ghost-LAUNCH". Proposals that do not include this exact word at the beginning will be archived automatically as spam. Key Deliverables: Theme Selection & Customization: Recommend and install a clean, modern, ultra-fast tech/SaaS publication theme (dark mode option preferred, e.g., Flair, Basho, Reiro, or similar high-end Ghost themes). Customize styling (colors, fonts, header layout, call-to-action buttons) to align with our brand identity. Core Pages & Architecture: Homepage: Clean hero section, featured posts grid, email newsletter capture box, and primary CTA sections. Static Pages Setup: Create and layout /about, /pricing, and /contact pages. Blog/Publication Structure: Set up tags, categories, and author profiles. PIPELINE 1: Automated Daily SEO Blog Pipeline (Completely Standalone) Build an automated workflow (via Make.com / Zapier + OpenAI / Byword.ai) connected to a keyword list (Google Sheets / Airtable) or AI scheduler. Must run independently every single day: This pipeline must auto-generate 1 structured, 1,200+ word SEO article daily (with H2/H3 headings, key takeaways, and CTAs) and publish it directly to Ghost at a set time, regardless of whether a YouTube video is uploaded or not. PIPELINE 2: Automated AI YouTube-to-Blog Pipeline (Separate Trigger) Build a separate automated publishing workflow connected directly to the Zentrasi YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@ZentrASI. Trigger & Formatting: Every time a new video goes live on YouTube, this workflow triggers independently to process the transcript through OpenAI API and publish a dedicated, rich article containing: Top Featured Video Player: Prominently embedded YouTube player at the top of the post. "TL;DR / Key Takeaways" Box: A highlighted summary box with 3–5 core bullet points. Structured Article Deep Dive: AI-generated body copy using clear H2 and H3 subheadings, bullet lists, and readable formatting derived from the transcript. Timestamped Chapter Breakdown: Formatted chapter markers allowing readers to navigate the video. Call-to-Action (CTA) Banners: Built-in closing sections encouraging readers to subscribe to the newsletter or visit our product suite. Automated SEO Metadata: Auto-generated Meta Titles, Meta Descriptions, URL Slugs, and Tags pushed directly to Ghost's native SEO settings. Automated Weekly Email Newsletter Digest: Configure Ghost's native newsletter engine and email settings. Set up an automated weekly email digest schedule (or integration via Make.com / Ghost RSS) so that all daily SEO blogs and YouTube articles published throughout the week are automatically aggregated and emailed to subscribers on a set day/time. Ghost Configuration & Integrations: Configure Ghost native membership/email newsletter sign-up forms and footer capture cards. Set up primary navigation, footer links, and social links. Verify Ghost Admin API access & webhook readiness for automated content publishing. Ensure mobile responsiveness and page speed optimizations. Basic SEO settings setup (meta titles, descriptions, open-graph image fallbacks). Milestone & Budget Breakdown ($500 Total): Milestone 1 ($250): Theme Installation, Design & Static Pages Install and customize selected Ghost theme (colors, fonts, logo). Design and publish Homepage and core static pages (/about, /pricing, /contact). Milestone 2 ($250): Both AI Content Pipelines, Weekly Email Setup & Launch Set up Pipeline 1 (Independent Daily SEO Blog Generator). Set up Pipeline 2 (Independent YouTube Transcript-to-Article Generator for @ZentrASI). Configure Ghost native weekly automated email digest and subscriber signup flows. Final testing, mobile responsiveness check, and a 5-minute Loom video handover walk-through. Note on Theme: The client will purchase the premium Ghost theme license separately if a paid theme is selected. The $500 fixed budget is strictly for design, setup, and automation labor. Qualifications: Proven experience building and customizing Ghost CMS (Ghost 5.x / 6.x). Demonstrated experience setting up multiple parallel automation workflows in Zapier or Make.com using OpenAI API prompts. Proficiency in HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and Handlebars.js (for custom Ghost template edits if needed). A strong eye for modern, minimalist Silicon Valley tech design aesthetics. Clear communication and ability to complete the project within 5–7 days. Screening Questions: Did you include the required keyword at the beginning of your proposal? Please share links to 2 or 3 live Ghost websites you have previously designed or built. Which Ghost theme (paid or free) do you recommend for a sleek, modern tech startup, and why? How do you plan to configure the TWO SEPARATE workflows in Make.com / Zapier so the daily SEO blog pipeline runs independently from the https://www.youtube.com/@ZentrASI video conversion pipeline?
