Im new to drupal and havent done too much with it yet. I want to make a new travel related website so I thought that I would come in here and see what someone might charge me to build it. I will give a general outline of the needed features here and will go into furhter details at a later time.
Here is what I want:
It will be a travel website that Will focus on one country in particular for now. At a later date I will extend it to 5-6 countries but for the first year or so I will build it up around just this one country.
The website will offer information and also be a community type website. People can join the website and create personal journals about their travels in this country. They can map where they have been and where they would like to go. They can upload and share photos with other members. They can communicate with each other via a PM system, forums and chat room.
The site will be loaded with information. There will be a map of the country where the guests can click to certain areas. Each area will break down into different information such as: A map, general information about this area, photo gallery of this area, hotel/ guesthouse in this area, local businesses, forum topics about this area, and users who recently talked about this area on their personal journals.
The business directory will be a big aspect of the website. I will be going around and collecting payment to be listed in this directory. It should be sorted by area and also by type (resturant, hotel, dive shop, etc) Each business will have its own page with a complete description that I will fill out including things such as location, contact info, photos, and general informaiton. I will also have the option to personally review each business and offer them a rating. I will not review or rate all businesses but I will for some. I also want to be able to feature some businesses and give them a more prominent position in the directory. Guests should also be able to add a seperate review and rating of all businesses in the directory and add their comments, but they wont be shown unless I aprove them.
