word press with CMS,SEO, adsense,analytics,webmasters tools

Hi, I have a website hosted on hostmonster which I add articles to constantly. I pay a developer who is great at this but would like to be able to add them myself. I found the hostmonster includes cpanel which has wordpress v2.8.4. I checked and found there are templates available which allow you to use it as a CMS instead of a blogging tool. Anyway I would like to know how much to have someone set wordpress up for me, and install a template that is SEO optimised, allows me to add my own articles (not blogs but articles), has places for adsense, google analytics, google webmaster tools verfication, abilty to add metatags etc. Would like to know that the template and install you are suggesting is number 1 in google somewhere for something. I already have somelinks to my site which I dont want to break also. My site is [login to view URL] I have about 60 articles, need you to show me how to load them up, seo ready ? Regards, Michael
