{after update: look like redtube: fine with me for same price & approach }
Dear Sir/Madam,
My name is Leon Swinkels and I am a senior web developer from the Netherlands. I have read your clear requirements and am very confident I can create the website you are looking for.
After this I have a some questions:
1. Where would you host this website? You indicate a large amount of visitors, performance of a website is often related to network/hosting performance and is therefore of interest to this project. (you indicated not having too much time for this project, I can select a provider for you if you wish)
2. You stated video's would be coming directly from others. How is this arranged? Are there automated feeds or should your website provide scraping? ( Meaning, should your website 'read' other websites and include the videos on your site? )
3. Information/content wise: would you have an extensive list of source websites and categories to be used? Can you indicate which forum functionalities your would like ( or shall I suggest some? )
For the contact/availability & response time: I am in the Netherlands, so in a different timezone. Except from weekends & holidays I will always respond same-day and we can setup Skype calls & meetings as often as you like. I have no XXX references, but did work with streaming before.
For pricing: I would propose to clarify above questions first, then make a design/setup/mockup and then estimate. Would that be ok?
Regards,
Leon
