    Hi,
    Can anyone build a site like ezinearticles.com for me?

    It should allows users to come and post articles on different topics.

    What is the type of web hosting needed for this site?

    How much will you charge to build a site like that for me?

    You're going to want to look into an article/content management system. Depending on which route you go, you can either pick one up for free (open source) or pay for a commercial package that will have all the bells and whistles.

    If you want to go the open source route, I think Joomla might be able to handle this; however, since I don't use Joomla, I'm not the most qualified person to recommend it (since I don't know if it can, but I'm sure it might be able to with some customization).

    You'll most likely be looking at having to use the PHP scripting language and MySQL relational database management system for your site. Most Web hosting providers offer PHP and MySQL at no extra charge, due to their price tag (they're free).

    As for the cost, that will range anywhere from $0.00 to thousands of dollars just to get the CMS (content management system) you want, depending on your particular needs and the capabilities of the various CMS packages out there, to the cost of labor, which you and the Web developer would have to agree upon.

    Take the time to study Joomla. It has a very bright future.
