Description:
Please visit our basic static shopping website at http://www.top10gifts.com
We have just developed this with minimal shopping capabilities and static content.
We would like to have a database set up on our website that will enable us to do the following,
1) Add/amend/delete products from our range (changing the price of the product, the small picture, text, a large popup picture and add/amend/delete reviews we receive from customers)
2) A shopping cart that will work and allow customers to buy multiple products (some products when purchased need specific information as well, such as name and address for personalisation) We are using a secure hosting company called securehosting.com for our payment side - our shopping cart would need to integrate with them. (At present all info is posted to a secure page for us to download and manually process - no automation as yet is needed)
3) Ability to secure customers details in our database once an order has been placed - i.e. name, address, email, phone, product ordered and when.
4) Simple search mechanism that will allow users to search specific keywords for products, or a price range, such as £0 - £10; £11 - £20 etc etc so that viewers can find all products on our site within that price range.
The site has been designed inhouse by ourselves and we intend to continue partly with updating information on the website, but we need a database that will allow us to automatically update both stages of each product and give them some sort of order in each of the four sections.
As you will see from top10gifts.com the site is not completed yet as we would like put it to database quickly.
We would like to move extremely quickly with this product so speed and accuracy are very important to us.
Look forward to bids.
Deliverables:
1) Complete and fully-functional working program(s) in executable form as well as complete source code of all work done.
2) Installation package that will install the software (in ready-to-run condition) on the platform(s) specified in this bid request.
3) Complete ownership and distribution copyrights to all work purchased.
Platform:
We currently have standard hosting, but upgrade to any type of platform the programmer requires or needs - just let us know what you need.
Must be 100% finished and received by buyer on:
Nov 1, 2002 EDT
Deadline legal notes: All times are expressed in the time zone of the site EDT (UT - 5). If the buyer omitted a time, then the deadline is 11:59:59 PM EDT on the indicated date.
Special Conditions / Other:
We are based in the United Kingdom but will accept bids and programmers from anywhere in the world
Remember that contacting the other party outside of the site (by email, phone, etc.) on all business projects < $500 (before the buyer's money is escrowed) is a violation of both the software buyer and seller agreements.
We monitor all site activity for such violations and can instantly expel transgressers on the spot, so we thank you in advance for your cooperation.
If you notice a violation please help out the site and report it. Thanks for your help.
