So I'm currently 20 years old in college and have been trying different side hustles and businesses throughout the past 3 years but recently I have realized I need to think more with the intent to scale limitless.
I have a concept for a service-based website that I'm passionate about however I have questions on where to start. The purpose of the website would be to provide PC part recommendations to people. They would input their PC parts list OR if applicable, input their url link to their prebuilt PC and from there, set a budget and desired part they wish to upgrade, which would finally result in a part recommendation with a commissioned affiliate link to said part (Amazon, Best Buy, Newegg, etc...). I post here because after reading TMF and UNSCRIPTED I have taken great influence to make sure my ideas are scalable and more full-proof.
My question is how can I achieve this desired result? I have made a Wordpress barebones website and purchased a domain, but before getting too far ahead I started to wonder if Wordpress would be able to do the services I described above even with plugins. I made a reddit post basically asking this same question and was met with answers saying to either learn HTML, CSS, Javascript, PHP, which would take years; or met with answers saying to hire a web developer who is much more experienced (I am in college full-time working part-time to barely make rent).
Any advice, recommendations, reality checks, or really anything valuable is appreciated in my scenario. I want to work my a$$ off on this project, but I want to make sure I am on the right building block first.
