Hello.
This project is a whole-new-script project which means you would have to start from the beginning (not a modification). It includes both programming and design.
There's a lot of video sharing websites out there. YouTube seems to be the most popular one. Do I want a clone of YouTube? Well, not entirely but it will eventually include some of its features.
Now, let's get into details.
Website will include all the basic functions of typical video sharing website.
Few examples:
- users will be able to upload videos and share them with friends by sending a link generated by the website
- browsing most watched videos, top rated etc.
- searching the whole website for previously uploaded videos
- rating/commenting uploaded videos
Obviously, I'm going to need some kind of control panel. Some of its most important parts include:
- deleting/editing uploaded videos
- putting videos in categories
I can't think of all options so some additions may apply. Keep that in mind when you're bidding.
The most important part about this project is to create a webmaster rewards program. It's not a new idea so I suggest you go to [login to view URL] (or [login to view URL]) and check out their rewards program. I'm pointing you to these websites because I really like how they have it set up. And again, this will need separate/integrated control panel. Most important functions:
- deleting/editing created accounts
- checking for accounts with same IP address, same password, same e-mail (cheating prevention)
- integration of PayPal to ease the process of sending payouts to users
WEBSITE DESIGN:
Here I'm going to have you refer to [login to view URL] again. I really like their design. It clearly takes a lot of effort to create something like this. Glossy logo, some flash buttons – those are the things I'd like to see on my website. However, this cannot be a clone. I just want the design to be as impressive as theirs.
I hope the description is detailed enough.
And just so we don't experience any misunderstanding. I need one programmer/company to complete the whole thing. In other words, I'd like to receive a completed website without having to hand it over to someone else to finish/fix/change it.
Please post your portfolios.
Thank you.
