The Story Behind Nomad Tanvir

I wanted a place that truly represented me—not just what I do, but who I am. That’s how NomadTanvir.com came to life. It’s more than a portfolio. It’s a digital home for my work, my thoughts, and my journey as a content writer, SEO specialist, and digital nomad.

When I started, I didn’t just want a typical “about me” website. I wanted something clean, simple, fast, and easy to explore—something that reflects my personality and work style.

What I Did

✅ Built the Website from Scratch

I used WordPress as the foundation and Divi Builder for design flexibility. Every part of the site—from the layout to the fonts, buttons, and color scheme—was handcrafted by me.

Here’s what I focused on:

  • Choosing a minimalist layout that loads fast and looks professional

  • Making it fully responsive for mobile and tablet users

  • Designing a homepage that introduces me clearly and simply

  • Creating dedicated pages to showcase my work, skills, and services

Designed with Simplicity & Speed in Mind

my services are SEO and content writing

I didn’t want to overcomplicate things. The goal was clarity and speed. So, I:

  • Compressed images using TinyPNG and used WebP formats

  • Wrote all the text myself in plain, friendly language

  • Tweaked the Divi layout with a bit of custom CSS to add unique touches

  • Made sure everything was mobile-friendly and fast-loading

Wrote All the Content

Every word on the site was written by me, in my own voice. Whether it’s the home page, service descriptions, or project showcases—everything is clear, personal, and designed to connect with real people.

I wanted visitors to feel like they know me after browsing. That’s why I kept the tone casual and friendly, just like I talk in real life.

Why This Project Matters to Me

NomadTanvir.com is more than just a project—it’s my personal brand online.

It’s a place where I can:

  • Share my portfolio with clients and companies

  • Show the world what I can do in content, SEO, and design

  • Post blogs and tips about my experiences in digital marketing and freelancing

Plus, it was a fun challenge! Designing and building your own site forces you to think deeply about what you stand for and how you want to present yourself online.
