- Description: I'm trying to start a price comparison website, focused on the Republic of Ireland insurance market. Initially, I want to focus on Car insurance, and the site will get quotes from numerous Irish based insurance websites when a user submits their details. I've initally set it up to get a quote from one site and it's developed using PHP and CURL. The site will scrape the other insurance sites initally, and when we have a demo site up and running, I'm going to contact the individual companies to give us access to any available APIs or Web Services. Once the site is up and running, I will then be looking for further services to develop price comparison sections for health, mototr bike, home, per, etc.
I'm a qualified software engineer myself, and planned to complete the website myself, but have had limited time to focus on it technically. The site has been started using PHP and CURL - I also wanted to start using JAVA, but my current site hosting company doesn't host Java based applications.
I will provide a list of other websites to scrape (5-10) to any interested parties. You must then pass the user submitted vales to the sites and return a quote. I want to keep the user input as small as possible, so each site will probabley require a certain amount of data transformation! For example - some sites expect an age, others expect a date of birth. All website quotes will then be provided to the user in a list format with the company name, logo and quote.
Existing UK based sites are www.confused.com, www.gocompare.com, etc.
If this is successful, they may be a lot of additional development coming on the horizon.
Additional Info (Added 7/23/2009 at 19:09 EST)...#########################
Hi all,
just to clarify one issue regarding the project. A lot of people are offering to do scans of the websites, and save them to a database via cron. THIS WILL NOT WORK!
When a user enters their details, the site will have to access a number of sites and query them in real time, before returning the quotes to the user. Total transaction time may take up to 20-30 seconds.
A list of the sites which will have to be queried in real time are:
http://www.fbd.ie/
https://www.insure.ie/car_insurance?new_quote=y&type=private
http://www.123.ie/Motor/quote/get/quote.123?conversationId=11538
https://secure.axa.ie/CarInsurance.aspx?busID=2&termsAndConditionsAgreed=true
https://services.hibernian.ie/direct/product/car.htm?_flowId=motor-flow&_flowExecutionKey=e1s1
http://quoteengine.bestquote.ie/motor1.aspx
As I mentioned, the winning programmer may also be asked to add further sites in later projects, as-well aas develop quote pages for Home, Bike, Health insurance.
Thanks.
