Looking for webmaster

bombidol

Ok as some know im setting up a business in the near future and my website skills are less than great, see Here for examples, ill be looking for someone to build me a site and to maintain it and update it every week.
Ill need a credit card sales option a wishlist option, a newsletter sent out every month, a forum will be bought and hosted here on boards.ie
Does anyone feel up to the challenge, if so let me know of any examples of your work and your fee for doing this.
Hopefully we will be ready to go in the next few months

...this thread is really, really dodgy, gents... might I suggest ye take this conversation elsewhere?

bombidol, I'd strongly advise you to host your 3count pages somewhere other than the boards.ie machine - people (we both know who) are going to (rightly) come down on you like a ton of bricks if they see this... unless, of course, you've got permission (which, considering the commercial nature of your intentions, is highly unlikely)???

Its just a tester site, no actual business is being done.

...if those "on high" aren't aware of this and come across it (say, through your sig) all hell may break loose!

I'm not giving out, just offering (hopefully) advice...

Unless you’re reasonably well funded, and have allotted a sizable enough budget towards setting up a Web site with all those facilities, your best bet may be to take on a business partner who can do the Web and tech stuff for you. Down side is you’ll lose some equity.

An alternative (without spending too much) is an ASP/CMS solution. This may be all that you need, especially if the Web is not your primary focus. This can also be risky, in that you are ultimately dependant upon third party technology - It may be insufficient to your needs, or simply crap. You also leave yourself open to being dropped in at the deep end should your ASP/CMS provider go bust.

Final alternative is to get a cheap cowboy effort done. Should you go that route, you’ll realize the down side to that before long...

Another possibility would be to use a CMS like Postnuke (http://www.postnuke.com)
It comes with 99% of your requirements out of the box, while the others would be easy enough to add on...
Of course you'd need a reasonable host for it, but that's another story
