Hi. I want to create a tag-based website, and I need a tool that I could use (preferably without programing).

It's a site where a user could pick tags on a certain item (tags are to be listed under a few categories). On the other end - a visitor could choose a tag, and then be redirected to a few items on which that tag was selected the most. Besides this, I need to set up a registration form (for the visitors who want to select tags on a desired item).

Stackoverflow.com may serve as an example of what I want to achieve. Functionally it is a quite similar approach. I am not sure if further detailing will bring me closer to getting a development advice, but nevertheless - following this template what I would be missing on is:

  • ability to categorize the tags; and so they would fit in one page (overall i assume <200 tags)
  • box where a user could enter a tag and it would be pending until a certain number of users enter such tag
  • ability to limit the number of 'questions' that appear when a visitor chooses a tag - 'question' stands for an item to which users are selecting tags (displayed items would depend on the frequency the tag was assigned - say the top two items)

Which software should I try / How should I go about it? Thank you.

P.S. I have bought hosting account through GoDaddy.com. This is a first website that I am trying to build.

unfortunately. even though I am OK to let this thing go and grow naturally, by having a trust in the contents of 'defining what’s on- and off-topic', it won't do it as the concept is not around ones expertise, but ones opinion - reflection on experiences. in a sense like http://www.brandtags.net/index.php, just ~ other way around.

As you prefer a solution without programming, maybe you will get a better answer on the new webmaster stack echange site: http://webmasters.stackexchange.com/
