(Same description is attached) Price comparison for concert, sporting and theatre tickets in the UK and some further a field. Using product datafeeds supplied by primary and secondary ticket sellers, provide a simple comparison site displaying clearly to the user which tickets offer the most value in terms of price and quality of ticket (seat, row number, standing, sitting). Make it clear the dates available and any discounts offered. Provide links to the websites with the cheapest price. Site will also include ebay api product listings, rss/xml. It will need to be discussed best way to operate this. The rest of the feeds are in xml/csv formats. Allow users to signup to a central mailing list to be informed of offers. The main categories of the site are. • Concerts • Theatre • Sporting events From these top-level category pages the rest of the events can be reach through breadcrumb navigation. Main pages types • Artist/ this can mean a band name, production, tournament etc • Event (individual date of an event) • Venue (Theatre name/ or venue name) Artist The artist page, will contain an image of the artist (set size), some room for copy and then list the forthcoming tour dates maximum (15-20) from db, including price, event name, location/city, venue, and ticket seller logo and link, will also link through to the event page which will give a clearer indication of prices from the different sellers. In time I will provide you with a spreadsheet of content for the artist descriptions to upload. Event This page contains more information about the event, a description if available in the datafeed. Some text, which will be inherent across all event pages for this artist. E.g. Buy Madonna tickets. We have compared prices from all the operators in the market to give a clear indication on who currently offers the best price tickets for Madonna at the 2 London on 13th July 2009. This page provides ticket price comparison for from 3-7 operators in the market and shows logos for each at the top and a link to book the ticket from the seller in each. The cheapest price will be highlighted. Extra details of the seat row numbers; category of ticket will also be displayed if available. If eBay listings are available allow the option to bid/buy now and show the current bidding price. The user should be able to sort by price. The ability to remove auctions from the list should be possible using a check box. Here’s an example of a competitor website gives an idea of how I would like it. [login to view URL] Also on the event page on the side, a list of dates for that artist will appear in text links to the individual event page. The lowest price will be included in the text link. E.g. kings of Leon 21st August London from £32 Limit this to 5 listings. Venue Provide details about the venue and list all upcoming events. City Provide details about all gigs in a city/town in next 6 months. Search option. Allow users to search for individual artists and display page in a list. This is visible on every page near top. PHP - Mysql. Downloading of CSV/xml datafeeds from ticket companies on a daily basis mainly for pricing and availability. Front Page ??" Rotating graphic, which will change on refresh to different top selling artists, this is up for discussion whether it can be automated or I should just update, every now and then. Image will link to artist pages. Rest of page will consist of a number of links to top sellers, which will automatically update, include a “last chance?? section with events, which are about to happen in the next 14 days, these events will no longer appear in the box within 4 days of the event. Include search box at top. Email signup for newsletter with name. This will need verification of subscription. A central venue page, lists all venues, and then allows a user to find all events at the Albert hall. A central city, list all city page so users can look at each city’s upcoming events. Privacy page (leave blank) Terms & Conditions page (leave blank) Contact us page ??" simple php post script to an email address. Design Take a look at [login to view URL], [login to view URL], [login to view URL] they all following the same design, I am basically adding more to the event page to allow a comparison. A simple design is needed I like the seatwave design and colours. Back end Interface Occasionally a company will offer a discount code for a percentage off or a set amount off the price off a ticket. I would therefore like to be able to highlight this on every page. Ebay, Get an extra 10% from Ebay. Use code xxx to activate. This ‘bulletin’ will appear on both the event and artist pages. If the ticket is for a particular event e.g. Cricket world cup then I need an interface to enable this msg for different pages or not. For instance it could be 20% off theatre tickets. Or rugby world cup tickets. I don’t want this message appearing on unrelated pages. SEO The page title will need to search friendly. So I propose the following format or something similar Concerts/Madonna-tickets-o2-london-13th-September-2009/[login to view URL] Primary category/ Artist > tickets >Venue > City > Date Images need to be imported into the database and renamed to artist name-tickets. Alt tags for images will include the artist name e.g. Madonna tour tickets Note you would need to change dates into ordinal format 1st 2nd 3rd On every page the Meta and title tags need to be generated uniquely. Title for artist Kings of Leon tickets, concerts and tour dates ??" best price tickets Description for artist page: Find and buy Kings of Leon tickets at [login to view URL] Keywords for artist page: Kings of Leon tickets, concert dates, tour dates, live show tickets, music tickets, vip tickets, Alternative and Indie tickets, hot tickets, buy tickets Title for event page E.g. kings of Leon tickets Hammersmith Apollo 13th June 2009 Description for event ??"buy kings of Leon tickets online for Hammersmith Apollo London June 12th 2009 Keywords for event page Kings of Leon, tickets, Hammersmith Apollo, 12th June 2009 Venue title Concerts and events at Hammersmith Apollo London Description: buy tickets for tours, events, gigs and concerts for Hammersmith Apollo London. Keywords Hammersmith Apollo,tickets,gigs,concerts,events,London, H1, H2 Use of tags, on artist page: H1 Kings of Leon tickets, H2. See Kings of Leon at London, Newcastle, and Derby. Basically list the cities they are playing at. If its only one date or a festival then say see kings of Leon in the “venue name??. On event page use H1 Buy kings of Leon tickets H2 e.g. Buy Kings of Leon tickets o2 London 2nd September 2009 City Title find and buy tickets for shows, music gigs, concerts sporting events in London Description Search for tickets for shows concerts music gigs and events in London. Keywords London tickets, music gigs, hot shows, last minute concerts, top gigs, see more requirements in Platform ## Platform Notes: Links to external site will open in a new window. Links to external sites will need to be cloaked either via hta redirect or php redirect. Design will use divs and CSS, no tables. Once an event has passed this should no longer appear on the site, however artist’s pages should remain, a message saying no dates at present please check back soon. Room for you tube video on artist page. Similar to [login to view URL] Use proper html valid mark-up Code is commented Please include a physical site map and an xml generated one. Links to privacy, t&cs pages.
