Hello Everyone,
I am looking for more information from people with the knowledge that I lack. I am strictly the business end of things, I have the ideas and creativity, but do not pretend to have any programming or website design training.
The website that I am looking to have created would be very similiar online to websites like facebook (but for a very different purpose) etc....
So therefore my questions that I am looking to have answered are:
1.) What type of database would work behind the scenes for the storage of pictures and information? (Potentially lots of it) An example would be the storage of facebook type information pics, bloggin, personal info etc.....
2.) What type of programming would be involved in creating `FILLABLE`.pdf forms that could be completed and uploaded for others to see on the website?
3.) Is vBulletin the best type of online user forum to use in conjunction with your website?
4.) What programs can be used for instant messaging between members or for texting to a phone?
5.) When looking to have someone create a website, where should I look first?
6.) Lastly, for website hosting, are there companies that specialize in webhosting sites based on databases and possibly large storage needs? Is this type of website cost substanially more than other types? Does anyone know the rough associated costs?
I appreciate anyone reading through my long winded post, but anyone willing to answer any of the questions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
