Website Build – ₹30k Budget

I want a fully-functional website designed and developed from the ground up within a total budget of roughly ₹30,000. The visual direction should feel classic and elegant—think refined typography, balanced white space, and a timeless colour palette rather than anything flashy or ultra-modern. The heart of the site will be user-generated content. Visitors must be able to register, post their own material, and interact with one another in a smooth, secure environment. Whether you achieve that through a custom build, WordPress with the right plugin stack, or a lightweight framework is up to you, as long as performance is fast, the code is clean, and future maintenance is straightforward. To guide our collaboration: • Deliver a responsive front-end that keeps the classic aesthetic intact on mobile, tablet, and desktop. • Include a simple, intuitive admin dashboard so I can moderate submissions, manage users, and update static pages without touching code. • Set up all core security measures—SSL, spam protection, and basic hardening—before hand-off. • Provide a walk-through (video call or concise written guide) showing where to update content and adjust settings. I’ll supply brand assets, copy, and any additional feature notes after we agree on the technical approach and milestone split; feel free to suggest how best to allocate the budget at each stage. Let me know the tech stack you’d propose, an estimated timeline, and any previous projects that show you can pair refined design with robust user-generated functionality.
