Creating Website - Classified Like, Help appreciated.

[diz]

Hey guy's, I wanted to create a website - I got the domain and I can design it but I really have no clue with making it function properly. Basically the website is a little bit like craigslist but MUCH MUCH simpler. It's basically a Buy/Sell website for online currency to a certain game.

1 = Main page, the main page will have two large buttons on it One directs you to >Sell Gold, the other to >Buy Gold.

2. Whatever options you choose you will be prompted to Create an account

3. If you clicked on Buy, after you create an account you will be able to view the seller listings

4. If you clicked on Sell, you will be prompted to create an ad.

 

 

That's just the basic skeleton of it, I would love to add more later but I want to know how difficult it would be to make something like that.

Any help appreciated

This is pretty easy.

Your design only covers half of the work you face. I'm pretty sure stuff will start to get complicated when you are implementing payment processing. There are also legal issues here what do you do when someone is selling gold they don't have? How will you ensure fair transaction? How do you make sure buyers don't get ripped off? So you'll have to put a monetary amount on one unit of gold and this value may be influenced by the the number of sellers VS buyers. Then comes your bigger concern: security. Will you store credit card information? How will you ensure credit card information is securely transfered at all times. And I'm only scratching the surface here..

 

Back to the drawing board!
