I will consider your professional advise Antonis. However, what I would like to build is a (1st) freelancer website (upwork or like), I know that there are hundreds of these right now, but with a subtle twist and to offer both client and contractor something more, it may be feasible. (2nd) I fail to find Angel Investor so I have to cut cost everything to the rock bottom, I have a lot of time available to study and (plus motivation of course) and (3nd) I've done number of websites with blogspot (but plugins are paid monthly). So, I was thinking to do it myself the backbone with Django. Please tell me more what I should have know to bring this project to life.
