High traffic business site for Thailand-based real-estate agent Siam Real Estate. Working with an external graphic designer Vzions of Phuket, PapayaSoft implemented the underlying code, including HTML, CSS, client-side scripting, and server-side processing, including database interactions.
Many of the site’s features are visible from the public front-end, a brief sample of which are: various methods for searching the large database of sale and rental properties and rendering the results; a subsystem for viewing availablity and booking holiday rental properties; a login-protected Owner’s area where each property owner can view statistics on page views, enquiries, and property visits; a system for Instant Matching Property Alerts by which a buyer/renter can be immediately alerted when a property matching his criteria becomes available; a pair of complete standalone sites for the company’s innovative referral program (one for individuals, one for agents) under which a third-party can earn commissions by referring buyers; property mapping/pinpointing.
Other site features are visible only in the admin backend, a more complete discussion of which is prevented by obligations of client confidentiality.
