I also want to add banners and Google Ads

I might have skipped couple functions - If You see something that might be also important and helpful in that kind of project write it in PM.

Dont bother if You dont have experience in a project like that -
we require a live url and demo before signing up the contract.

Customers bid on products provided on the website. .
If the customer is the last person to bid when the time runs out, the customer wins the product.
Customers are able to bid instantly or use an automated bidding system. The site must be able to integrate ‘live’ bids and automated bids; re-starting the timer as needed or identifying a winner.

Key Site Features/Requirements
- language English only
– Easy to use, simple and clean design
Clear bidder registration
Seller(me) should be able to set a reserve price(i.e. Robot bidding)
SSL cert is already in hand from Dreamhost
Site must be able to be hosted with Dreamhost


– Automated bidding. Customers will be able to use an ‘autobid’ function to enable the system to bid on their behalf within set parameters (ie. max number of bids prepared to make on a product). The site must account for all automated bids before closing an auction and declaring a winner.

– Scheduled opening of future auctions

- Full back-end database
Secure management administration back end; ability to upload product details and control aspects of the site, needs info on bids closed and users logged on, etc
implementation technology should use PHP and client side javascript.
User interface and images should be skinnable
– Additional page content; eg. Future bids (dynamic) and static pages (eg. About us, previous winners, etc)
Search engine optimization

PLEASE PROVIDE

– Estimated price to develop the key features/requirements of the site
– Estimated timescales in weeks for completion (please include testing and dry runs) and start date. Please break this down into the project stages (e.g. Build, Test, etc)
– The coding languages used and any additional required purchases (eg. Software, etc)
Examples of similar projects you have completed. If possible, please provide a site with similar technical configuration and one with a good usability/ look and feel.

NOTES

– Developers or companies who have already worked on and completed these type of sites preferred. Please demonstrate where you may have done this before.

We are ready to move and need something ASAP!! Site must be as unique as possible. Nothing should look the same as any other auction site.

And for sure a buyer total control package!! No encryption on any page or code!


I borrowed most of these requirements from another user. I would like the same as him with a few things changed. Thanks
