Hello people.

 

I am doing something like marketing research.

I am experienced web developer and designer and I am wondering if people would buy my L2JCMS* (which is not coded yet, just want to see what people are thinking about the idea).

* The name will be different. I heard there is a CMS called like that.

 

The CMS will have many options and I will make the admin panel super user friendly (something like Wordpress if you have used it).

 

You will be able to:

- add new pages

- new links to the menu(s)

- show server statistics

- upload server patches for downloading

- upload players screenshots into a gallery

- append YouTube videos

- change website templates (themes)

- it may have nWatch integrated in order to show more live info from the server

- you will be able to include php files in certain places in the website, just in case you need it

- the website login can be attached to server login or can be separate login

- server registration can be done through the CMS if your server doesn't use autocreation

 

and more things which I have to think for.

 

The CMS will be plugin based and the main functionality will be just the mandatory one. Extra functionality will be done with plugins.

 

What I want from you?

* Suggest more things to add / remove

* Suggest a price for this CMS

* Tell me if it sounds good enough for you to buy it (I'm not asking you to tell me if you will buy it, just if you think it's good enough for you)

 

A note about the price. Please don't suggest prices like 30-60 euro. I am working as web developer since 2006 and I value my work. I work with real prices.

Price must be in rage of 60e because it is CMS and you want to sell many copies of it and have license for 1 domain only!

 

If you want to make CMS look at StressWeb cheap to buy but only 1 license for 1 domain and you can not transfer licence!

I got the idea, but don't tell me there aren't gonna be people sending the CMS all over the place. Few people will buy it and then what can I do to protect my rights?

 

Also don't forget coding such a complicated CMS is not an easy task.

It will take a month or even more (if I don't have a lot of free time).

 

I had two servers and I made the websites for them. These two websites are like the CMS I am talking about, but I will have to start from 0, because I have ideas to improve it.

 

PS: Please answer to the questions I've asked.

License only for 1 domain :) This is how you can protect it!

You can also add some protection like StressWeb where you can see who is using your software and on what domain!

 

I still think for good CMS price can not be high!

You want many ppl to buy at and can also sell Templates/Custom Mods to earn more money with it!

 

Most CMS make money from mods and templates!

 

Like in gaming industry companies like Sony when they sell gaming console they dont really make money,they make money when selling games for console :)

If you want to make decent money make it for OFF files not L2J as the serious servers that are willing to spend a bit of money usually run OFF.

This is a good logic.

To bad I didn't have any touch to L2OFF, but I'm sure it's not that different. I have to use different type of database (MSSQL), but this is not a problem either.

 

So far I don't see any point to code the CMS since nobody likes the idea.

No point to waste that much time in a product which is not gonna sell and pay back.

now think how many ppl use L2OFF and how many use L2J

if you can spend money you will never buy CMS but will order custom website for yourself with all scripts included!

    • Let me see if I understand correctly, older gentlemen, when a newcomer shows up to create modern things with the help of AI, doing what you charge them to do, you point the finger and laugh. I believe that's why everything is stagnant. The product isn't for programming experts, it's for newcomers. Don't buy from you if they can do it themselves using this base. You're going to deliver a similar product, maybe even worse than this one, so why are you complaining? PowerShell, as you well know, started with it, then came new platforms and new apps, new creation models, all with different languages; I chose the simplest one for my taste. This is about being organized and knowing how to choose the right words for each situation. It's not 100%, but it already gives a good impression. Nothing is 100%, so a topic written by AI, and all the code that you charge an absurd amount for to prohibit and sell hacks, could be open source so that everyone can create new practices, new models, new information for passing packets, prohibiting the use of cheats that cause server owners to break so much. Let's remember that the Admin doesn't always shut down the server; it's the players who find problems and take advantage by buying and reselling items, and they say that the GM shuts down the server every week, but that's a lie. What they do is duplicate items with packages and sell them, but perhaps this could give some future developers a starting point to create their own protection following the model in the initial documentation. Because none of you answer a question from a newbie, you think you're superior because you have knowledge, but with AI, people like that can have the same knowledge as you, but with less practice. And if they practice a lot, 10,000 hours, they can be as good as all of you older developers in the L2J field.
