Take my advice and thanks me later.

Why you want to build up something what is already up and running.

Blockchain.info is the most popular block explorer and there is no need to build another "blockchain.info" - waste of money and time.


In the world of Bitcoin there is a lot of space for new projects and you don't need to copy old ideas.. really.
Much better to build something new, something better! :)

I hope I did saved your time and money.

Kind regards.

Download the blockchain, then program the software. (or clone one from https://github.com/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=blockchain+explorer (https://github.com/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=blockchain+explorer) )

I was lucky enough  to hear blockchain.info at a conference.  They are HUGE.   It would be very hard to compete with them.

I was impressed with how much work they put into some projects.  Like their mobile app they checked places that took bitcoin to make sure up to date.  Just to do this is a lot of manpower.

If you have a new idea it might be able to break into market but redoing blockchain.info will be hard to compete with.

It is very hard to compete with blockchain.info, not only because it is already established and has a good brand name, but also because they have a wallet service which brings them stable users and new users to the block explorer every day.

I understand, but Im trying to make a website which has everything in it. I'm not really looking to earn money or monetize the website, just make a nice platform for all users
