I am a technology advisor that offers impartial advice to both companies wanting to adopt technologies and web development companies that are constantly growing. I have been posed a question from one such developer who has been building brochure sites and the odd ecommerce one. She has an existing client looking to build a new web site that would contain local history and family history articles and photo galleries. The client wants to be able to update the site himself - probably on a daily basis. He wants to charge visitors to see this information or have an annual subscription fee if you register as a member (a sort of Family history Reunited). He also seems confident that he can charge a small one-off fee for one-time visitors.
The question - is their a database driven programme, out there that can be bought off the shelf that would do the trick. Just wondered if anyone knew of something they might recommend?
