Title:Informal Tourist Guide to Dubai

Location:Anywhere

Job Description

Project Description: '5 Days in Dubai'

I have a couple of pages written as a review of a holiday I spent there last year together with pics but I want that to be the 'hook' to the site and offer a lot more information so that the site eventually becomes 'one stop shop' for the potential tourist thinking about going there. So if there's someone wondering what they're going to do for 5 days there, this guide is intended to help. However rather than just a dry 'facts and figures' guide it will need to be conveyed with a personal touch and plenty of enthusiasm.

It's intended for the guide to be around 20-25 pages. i have a much more detailed spec of topics and number of pages I expect each one to cover but here's an overview:

Intro : From explaining where in the world Dubai is, to a brief history of its development and where its headed.

The man body of the text will concentrate on dubai coastline and city attractions (hotels, water parks, resorts, marinas, buildings both new and historic etc) together with nigthlife and restaurants. I will plug in my pages on my stay at one of the Dubai coastline resorts here.

There will also be a section on other notable hotels available that provide accommodation within a range of budgets.

There needs to be detail on Dubai for the 'shopper' from the air conditioned malls for the cosmopolitan shopper to the old world markets for the haggler.

The text needs to finish off a listing of periodic events that occur there (e.g. annual golf tournaments etc.) and 'nuts and bolts' info for anyone serious about going such as visa requirements, tourist etiquette and what you can/cannot bring into the country etc.

in an effort to improve SEO I've also included a list of keywords at the end of the detailed spec I'd like used liberally in the text although any others that you think will be useful in your expertise are welcome).

Target Audience:
Anyone looking for a luxury break trying to make up their mind to people requiring hard info who are intent on going to Dubai.

Other services that I need:
Search Engine Optimization

I will provide the following to the professional:

I have built and do SEO for 2 similar sites already. 1 is very successful, but I am unsure as to what you require for your budget.

Do you want the site built for your budget?
Do you have design and logo idea already?
What is your budget for SEO work?
Do you have an example of a site that you like?

Thanks

Hi Lee

The project is to get 'web site content' not the actual web site, that will be stage 2!
