WordPress Guides Site Development

I need a clean, modern WordPress site for my small UK accountancy practice that doubles as a resource hub. Besides the standard Home, About and Contact pages, the heart of the build is a library of downloadable help-guides—things like “How to Set Up a New Company”, “Sole Trader vs Limited Company”, “Beginner’s Payroll” and many more to follow. This library must do three things: • Capture email addresses automatically before a visitor can download any free PDF or watch a free video. • Allow me to sell premium guides individually (for example at £29.99) and also offer an ongoing membership option (around £9.99/month) that unlocks everything. • Let me upload fresh content easily and repurpose it for email and social media. I’m open to your advice on the best way to achieve this—whether that’s a custom WordPress plugin, configuring existing plugins, or something else entirely. Likewise for videos: YouTube, Vimeo or self-hosting are all on the table as long as playback is smooth and secure. Key requirements and deliverables • Fully responsive WordPress site with my branding and a simple, trustworthy design. • Content library with category filters, search and clear calls-to-action. • Email capture integrated with Mailchimp (or your recommended tool) before any free download/stream. • E-commerce setup for both one-off purchases and recurring subscriptions (Stripe preferred, but I’ll take guidance). • Secure member area for paid customers, with automated access control. • Social-sharing buttons and short-URL generation so I can promote guides on LinkedIn, Facebook and Twitter. • Clear back-end workflow so I can drag-and-drop new PDFs or videos without touching code. • Basic on-page SEO best practice baked in, even though organic search isn’t my main channel. • A brief hand-off session or video walkthrough so I feel confident managing everything myself. If you have experience turning WordPress into a gated resource centre and can recommend the right blend of plugins, payment gateways and email tools, I’d love to hear how you’d tackle this.
