Project Description:

We are looking for a simple website builder like letseat.at. Please go to http://www.letseat.at and sign up for the free version to get a feel for what we are looking for.
Our website builder will be targeted at pet groomers.
“A Website Builder For Pet Groomers”
There will be two version of our website builder: A paid version and a FREE version. The only difference between the free version and the paid is the ability to use a custom domain and Ads will be shown on the FREE version.
Front end design: You will not have to worry about designing the website as we will do this in house. You are just developing the site builder app and the design of the app.
Subscription and Billing: will utilize Recurly API, so you will not have to code the subscription and billing, just integrate the API. Please see: http://recurly.com/integration/ for API integration documents to see how easy Recurly will be to integrate.
Admin/App Design: If it makes the job cheaper and easier for you can use a admin theme from: http://themeforest.net/category/site-templates/admin-skins This should make this job easier as you will not have to design the admin interface, but just integrate the platform onto a theme – If possible.
