If I wanted to have your company our someone you recommend develop a theme extension for wilcity how much would you think it would roughly cost and how long would it take?

How much do you think would cost to setup search for 5000 business entries, monthly running cost for:
– Algolia,
– elastic search,
– Apache solr?

Apache Solr and Elasticsearch are open source, correct? If so cost would be to install, monthly hosting fee, plus some ponctual maintenance, no?

I believe in a year could arrive to around five thousand entries. Then next year maybe reach ten to fifteen thousand. Each business can add their own listing, then also will do scrapping with bulk import csv files into database with a wordpress plugin.

Going to try to cover average of 5 cities per twenty countries, with four main buisness categories, which can divid up to another ten business sub-categories. Then think would have up to ten entries per buisnesses sub-category. Would like to have around 10 facet search type to filter criteria such as services and products offered. Also in futur will add multistores so will need search to incluse products sold as well.

I am not sure what is best option to hierachize the structure of buisnesses and categories (looking to create directory listing for a business sector in which can me classified in 4 main groups which include several type specialized business (with special categories, offering services or equipment) throughout 20+ countries. Should I do a wordpress multisite to seperate the four main buisness categories?

I am an engineer, and have some experience making websites with wordpress and doing small modifications. I have a global understanding of what is going on in front-end and backend but not full in depth, I am not a programmer. I did learn some js, php, html, css, ruby, mysql, but do not have time to be fully dedicated to it.

I am just starting so budget is also a concern.

So what is your input?

Best Reagrds,
Yves
