The develop a website that presents information on key sights in various cities around the globe aimed specifically at people with limited time. Information would include a summary of the country, city and then details on the various activities in each city. To develop the content the goal is to open this site up for wiki-style input that permits registered users to create or append content as necessary. Any design my allow for space for advertising similar to Google Ad’s on all pages with context sensitive advertisements being driven by the page content such as country name, activity type, location etc. My initial draft (and yes its rough) of this concept can be found at [[login to view URL]][1]. ## Deliverables **_Details_** The home page would have an expandable menu structure that allows for easy browsing of activities. For example, countries to be classified by A-H, J-P etc and then cities would expand within that structure. See current example at [[login to view URL]][2] The home page would also include a series of alternating features on cities which could either be most recent, most viewed etc. Inclusion for the use of a global map to locate cities ( including showing which cities have details) should be considered. Three basic levels of pages would be required being * Country level ??" One page for each country with summary of key facts * City Level ??" One page summary of the facts and figures of the city * Activity Level ??" One page detail on what the activity is, how to get there, costs, times etc Standard Menu options ??" such as About, Contact etc would also be linked from the main menu **_Contribution_** A key facet of this website is to allow contribution. This can / should be done via two means which is either open/free edit with tracking via member detail or IP detail or through monitored additions which requires administrator intervention. Both options should be included in the design with easy ability to switch between to the two modes. People can have the option of contributing to either Country, City or Activity Level. Key data points to include * Name of Contributor ??" incl IP address * Email address * Country * * Details required as per screen shots * City * * Details required as per screen shots * Activity * * Details required as per screen shots People can contribute to just one of the above categories such as Activity even if there is no country which means that at a minimum the site needs to create the Country, City data. **_Database_** It is desired that the data for the Country, City, Activity are all kept within a database to allow for both easy updating external to the website as well for menu’s, and activities etc to be dynamically built. Please provide details on the type of database you would propose. **_RSS ??"_** From the home page visitors should have the ability to subscribe to a RSS Feed that pick’s up the latest additions and produces these through the various RSS readers. **_Activity Level Details_** Once the user has selected and Activity Level item the following options need to be available Print ??" be able to print the page in a user friendly manner. Plan is to maintain the advertisement in the printed page Podcast ??" This would involve taking the salient parts of the activity level pages and as selected by the user would transfer this to an iPOD for text display in notes. **_Design_** The design should utilise modern graphics and fonts however due to speed considerations the use of large graphics and photo’s should be kept to a minimum. This may include bright colours etc. Suggestions or links to sites with similar schemes is recommended. **_Logo’s_** Suggestions on Logo would design would also be welcome and I would undertake this as a separate project / fee. **_Advertising_** Provision needs to made for inclusion of advertising via means similar to google ad’s on each of the pages with the ability to trigger differing advertising based on the content of the page. For example, at City Level the advertising triggers / keywords should be related to the City / Country so as to drive appropriate advertising. **_Mobile_** The next stage is to morph the content to be accessible via handheld device such as smartphone or pda once on the road. This feature would provide basic instructions on how to get there, times, etc. There would be the need to include a form advertising or sponsor message each time this feature is used. **_Requested_** You are requested to provide the following details as part of your initial bid. · Development platform · Server side / hosting requirements **_Hosting_** I am planning on using popular hosting services and as noted about please specify the minimum requirements such SQL Databases, scripting support etc. 1) Complete and fully-functional working program(s) in executable form as well as complete source code of all work done. 2) Deliverables must be in ready-to-run condition, as follows (depending on the nature of the deliverables): a) For web sites or other server-side deliverables intended to only ever exist in one place in the Buyer's environment--Deliverables must be installed by the Seller in ready-to-run condition in the Buyer's environment. b) For all others including desktop software or software the buyer intends to distribute: A software installation package that will install the software in ready-to-run condition on the platform(s) specified in this bid request. 3) All deliverables will be considered "work made for hire" under U.S. Copyright law. Buyer will receive exclusive and complete copyrights to all work purchased.
