dear members,

i have a blog about business and like to move step forward with very own portal. I need some advice how can i make a trading portal like Home Page - Malaysia Auction & Online Shopping or something like alibaba.com. How much the budget cost to have this sites and how can i promote the portal?

I found new malaysia online shopping sites on google Online Shopping Buy | Merchants Online Shop & Shopping eCatalog

1. If i hire programmer to make online shopping like Online Shopping Buy | Merchants Online Shop & Shopping eCatalog, how much it will cost me?

2. How this site monetize its web?

3. is malaysian ready to have another online shopping beside lelong.com.my and timestreets.com? - mean market factors
