The biggest challenge in such a site is an auction tracking feedback mechanism that keeps all the activities in synch and generates alerts and emails for notifying the user and admin. A process is created to help the users need to voice their views and concerns.
The revenue generation of the site is by means on selling fees and registration fees.
Admin
The admin of such an application needs to be very robust as the number of the records being handled is very high. The development team worked hard on developing a backend interface that makes navigation through all these records very easy. Alerts are generated on the occurrence of importance so that the admin can prioritize the tasks and take action in a timely manner. Most of the processes are automated.
