I've got a rather large idea for a website at the moment which is way beyond what I could code, and I suspect it would take me some time to learn to do what I want the website to do.

Can anyone recommend a design web developer that isn't going to be stupidly expensive? Should I think about doing on a freelance type site to find the work?

I need a bit of a steer as well on what would/wouldn't be possible and the best way to do things.
 
Well...

Full design package really.

- DB Design
- Website and layout design

- ASP.net/PHP Coding
-- Confused.com/Moneysupermarket.com pull of data from other websites (not sure if this is the best idea, need advice on this)
-- Membership/basic social networking
 
Sorry I realise i'm being a bit vague, don't want to give too much away openly.

Essentially the site would be based around a unique for every person, dynamically populated calender. Which isn't too complicated, populating from a database.

The big one I have is where the data is going to come from. There's too much for myself or a couple of people to add, user submitted wouldn't really work, so I was thinking of pulling it from various sites using some sort of code in a way confused.com etc pull together quotes.

It could be done manually but ideally a process would be set up to automate collecting the data I need, but i'm not sure how complex this would be, how legal, or possible.

I'll have to look into this, i'm talking about ticket websites etc, so possibly a deal would need to be made.

I don't want to input events manually that would create too much of an overhead I think, so I was thinking of a solution outside that.
 
I've contacted codewise, any others to discuss with?

I'm wary of how much this might cost without an easy way of testing it upfront.

I appreciate that, I just need to get some rough ideas of what the cost is potentially going to be.

It's not particularly complicated, but i've not done any development for a long time and i'd have a lot to learn first to do it myself.
 
I don't think having it appeal is an issue, marketing it etc.

I've got an idea for a site that genuinely hasn't been done, or has been done awfully. If I wanted all of it developing it would be very very expensive.

In terms of brokering deals that isn't required there are existing data feeds, which makes things a lot more straight forward.

In terms of what the site actually does, it's not really complex development in my mind (not that I know how to do it properly!)
