Project Detail

Description

PROJECT SCOPE
Ten travel portals, each portal represents a country, need to be developed. All portals use the same template. Each portal has the same content structure. The portals need to be developed in Joomla 1.5. and installed on my webserver. There is already some programming done. It is your own choise to use the current programming or start at zero.

Next to the ten travel portals I need one portal to be developed as the main portal. All ten travel portals are linked to this main portal. The information on this main portal is compiled of the ten travel portals.

The goal of the portals is to generate revenue by affiliate marketing. Therefore all travel offers and products which are shown on the portals need to be linked to the merchant website via an affiliate link.

- The content per portal is unique
- The Travel offers per portal are unique
- Vacation related products are not unique per portal and therefore need to be centralized from the main portal.
- The registration of the visitors on all the ten- and the main portal(s) need to be centralized to enable the visitor to register once and be able to login all of the portals and/or the main portal.
