Hello all. I am posting this in hopes that someone that reads it will offer me some advice or point me in the right direction. I am wanting to start a paid date website, something similar to match.com. I want to target people that don't normally go to these types of websites. I would start with free trials and then as my site gets poplar I would have a small membership fee. I already have a target group in mind. The problem I have is that I don't have all the techie training needed to build a site from scratch. I have quotes from the pros to put together the site ranging from $900 on up to $10,000. There is just no way I can afford even the lowest quote on a housekeeper's salary with business being so slow, in this economy not many people care to pay for housekeeping. I have found date website templates but they don't let me charge a membership fee. I am sure this can be done and would turn out to be a good source of extra income for me if I just get a few people to point me in the right direction give me some advice and suggestions then I will be on my way to making this pipe dream a reality. So please anything that might help will be greatly appreciated. ideas, links, articles, or whatever, I will compile every bit of info and put it to good use. Thank you very much for reading
I have no experience, but I'd suggest posting a job on elance. There are some highly qualified people on there and their fees seem very low. Good luck!
