[Question] Ripping a website

MrGr33n · Jul 25, 2015

I want to make a local directory website and charge businesses a small fee to list them on it. I like the look and design of an existing directory in a different region so is it possible to completely rip the design and layout and functions etc? I've tried using httrack and a host of other tools but it's far too complicated for me. If I approach a web designer how much should I be paying for this service? Thanks.

Well if tools and coding are too complicated for you, then yes you should hire a designer. Depending on the country he resides and the time he's willing to spend on your site, prices will vary a lot from simple to x100. We will need more infos to give you an approximate scope

the best tool for this is the firefox extension ScrapBook (not to confuse with Scrapebox)
