Be careful, you're not going to get much of a social networking site for 2 grand. You might be wiser asking around for charitable offers from "religiously inclined" developers...?

Too Low Budget

bpocanada - June 5, 2007 - 01:13

If you want a close replica of mychurch.org, I think your budget is too low. You may want to contact http://www.drupal.org/drupal-services companies to get an idea on how much it will cost.

how much should they ask

zanematthew - June 5, 2007 - 06:39

how much should they ask for? 5,000 10,000?

You need a brief.

NikLP - June 5, 2007 - 13:28

There's little point speculating on price, there is no clear brief for the project here. "Like" another site doesn't necessarily mean "the same as", plus the development might have been using something totally different (language, package, etc). There's always differences anyway, which will ultimately affect cost.

That would be the reason why there's a pile of foreign developers responding, due the exchange rate and price of labour. If they can afford to do it, then they can ask for the work, no problem.

From my point of view, it looks like a fairly large social networking site, and it would be into 5 figures for me. GBP.

cost advice

yamato - June 8, 2007 - 09:22

Can anyone give suggestion how much will be the suitable cost for it? I want to know too.

Thanks

$50,000+ ?

zanematthew - June 8, 2007 - 17:33

i think were getting on shaky ground by asking for specific price numbers, a good write up can be found here:

http://www.pearsonified.com/2006/06/how_much_should_a_design_cost.php

just from what ive read ima assume a 'social networking site' would involve ALOT of factors which the OG poster possibly did not take into account such as:

db building
db maintenance
requirements gathering
usability testing
wrtie up's and documentation
logo design
icons
graphic work
SEO

just to name a few

im going to throw a number bout there....$50,000+ ? and thats not including hosting and db maintenance, keep in mind that youtube.com started out as a social networking site and was purchased by goggle for around 64billion dollars

can someone add on?

well.. close

mrgoltra - June 8, 2007 - 19:31

I approached a local web development company - been in business for 10 years.. they know their stuff. Without giving much specific details about my social networking project he told me 60K or more, he said more and not less...

for 60K here is what I got

db setup
site setup with all the described modules
testing

not included -
graphics stuff.
technical support which is $80/hour minimum of 2 hours.

Well I wish I could find someone to create my site for 2K.

looks like you are not getting any offer close to your need

gurukripa - June 22, 2007 - 10:18

prices seems to be pretty high...given the high cost of living worldwide.

i sympathise with your cause..and can help you...at much lower than market rates..so do contact me.
mpcd108 at gmail

also another option is available for you..if u check www.spiritualnectar.com you will see that its meant for a similar purpose...maybe we can tweak a portion of that site for your specific needs ..and you can use it for your purposes too..

looking for a Drupal developer - $2,000
