How much will it cost to hire a coder? Do I need to register my coin name and ticker somewhere? is there any agency that allots ticker like ICANN allotes domains?
Check out walletbuilder everything there are automatic ,you just fill in the information in their order form and supplied them with your own logo or ticker,about ticker of course it should not be copyrighted,you don't want to face or encounter copyright issues in the middle of your coin promotion.
I don't advise this website, you may check cryptocoingods they are awesome guys, they will do everything you want, you can contact them on skype, website, everything. If you want to make a good code, with some basics, it may cost up to 1 btc, but you will have a solid code, and even some after sale support.
At this point you will then be able to add more services like nodes, block explorer, exchange listing or merchants acceptance, faucet, gambling websites ...
It is up to you, however, if you don't have any knowledge about blockchain, then don't even think about cloning a coin, you will just end up like a scam project.
