As said before, they're hard sites to code. You need to think about security (which is a big big factor nowadays), accessibility and ease of access for users.

I'd recommend learning PHP or hiring a few programmers and sysadmins.

Good luck with your venture!

True DAT.You can get numerous coders to build an exchange website from freelancer.com and make sure to hire a black hat hacker too.The first thing a new exchange website receives is attacks by hackers.

Decentralization Maximalist

Exchanges are one of the most difficult website types to code, mainly because of the very high degree of security needed. You need to plan thoroughly a good cold, warm and hot wallet concept.

And chances are eventually you will be hacked, so you must have a plan for this event. Are you sure you want to do that? What will you do if your exchange is hacked?

i can be years learning to program i'm not interested, can i pay to someone for do it? is safe pay To someone for build the site? thank you beforehand for your answers.

That too a good idea. But at least you should have some coding knowledge to check the coding before implementing it. Because what if the paid someone leaves a vulnerability in your site and he stole all your exchange's money after sometime?

And AFAIK, maintaining a good exchange is somewhat tough.

You're gonna have to design it (HTML, CSS, and if you want dynamic elements that don't require refreshing the page, Java.) Then you'll need to have an organized back end db and likely use PHP for that, in addition to JSON-RPC calls to Local Bitcoind.

Let me know how it goes.

Just remember Java is not the same as JavaScript.

Not to down you or anything but if you don't even know where to start to build a BTC exchange site then I don't think it is also advisable for you to operate one. It needs moderation and unless you know well what you are doing, I don't think this will be easy.

Crypto Swap Exchange

First of all you need to make sure the budget is nothing near dripping so must be "A LOT" and then you should hire developers (Different developers for each department) and if you could afford to have some back up developers for each part then that would be even better and then a good way to promote your exchange websites as well ... If the problem is trusting the developers here, you could always check their trust summary to see if they could be trusted for this matter

Cryptocurrency exchanges have a ton of work put into them. I admire the exchanges who have their own currency.

Firstly of all if you don't know coding you should hire developers.
Secondly you should have a good amount of bitcoin to operate an exchange.
And for users to trust you, the security should be in maximum.

Also, make sure you have a good backup fund as well, in a cold wallet, stored in a safe/safety deposit box/etc. Just anywhere safe really. You need to be able to "insure" your customers in case you lose their coins.

Your country may be your worst enemy

Doing the website is the easiest part.
Do you want to sell BTC with people paying with their credit card? Do you expect your customers to wire their money to your bank account? Where will you get the BTC that your customers will buy through your website? How do you plan to convince your customers that your business is legit and trustworthy?

Find answers to those questions before thinking about the website.

I think you should learn how to make any simple website first, and then go for bigger things.

Anyawys, for the website design, you will need to learn HTML, CSS and Javascript.

After you have designed a beautiful website, you can use PHP as the server-side programming language, which will take care of managing users data.

You can have a bitcoin node running on the server, and set its options to allow RCP requests. That way PHP can communicate with the bitcoin node, and ask it anything about the blockchain. Search how to do this on google.

But remember there is no copy-paste-and-change-the-name free template on the internet for this. You will have to program it all by yourself.

Good luck.
