Hello,
My name is Garrett Goldsmith. I’m 13 and I have started a business that’s going pretty well but I need an edge on my competition.
I need a program written that will sort through a database daily and extract listings based on certain criteria. It is a membership database accessed with my username and password.
My budget is $1000 – $1500
I will be paying FAST through Scriptlance by PayPal.
I would like to thank you for reading my project.
Sincerely,
Garrett Goldsmith
ADDITIONAL INFO:
Our exact needs are as follows:
My son buys items and then tries to sell them at a higher price. He belongs to a membership site that lists the available items each day. There are tens of thousands of items for him to analyze to try to find the ones with the highest likelihood of selling. The membership site also lists potential prospects for each item, however, each item must be clicked on individually to see these prospects.
He needs a program that will run a scan once daily to make it easier for him to find the items that are most likely to be in high demand by examining each item in the following ways:
1) find out if there are .biz, .net, .info, etc, sites matching the product site and if any are owned by the same owner
2) find out if there are websites with similar names to the sites products he’s reviewing, for example, redshoes, redshoe, shoered, etc
3) find out if a dashed version of the site or similar sites exists, for example, red-shoes, red-shoe, shoe-red, etc.
4) find contact info for any of the above found sites, such as email AND phone (fax or mobile if possible) AND it must determine if the email contact info is still operational.
5) determine the number of incoming links for each site above and have an elimination process based on a number of incoming links that he can determine at will.
6) determine the amount of traffic to each and have an elimination process based on an amount he can determine at will.
7) be able to rank or list the data by any of the above parameters
The membership site already has a buy mechanism. The program you write should be able to activate it when certain parameters he can select are met.
The technology stack is as follows:
-Linux
-Apache
-PostgreSQL
-Perl or PHP
XHTML, CSS or Javascript
We look forward to receiving your bid.
Sincerely,
Cynthia (Garrett’s mom)
