LocalExpert Hub
A web platform that connects users with local service providers and simplifies discovery and comparison through provider profiles, ratings, and reviews. Its smart matching feature recommends suitable providers based on location, service type, and previous ratings.
LocalExpert Hub was developed as a graduation project to organize the search for local services. It brings service provider information into one platform, offering an alternative to information scattered across advertisements, social media, and personal recommendations.
The platform allows users to search for service providers, explore their profiles and services, and read ratings and reviews from other users. These features help users compare their options and make more informed decisions when choosing a provider.
Its smart matching feature uses location, service type, and previous ratings to recommend providers that match the user’s needs. Service providers can also showcase their services after their information has been verified, helping strengthen trust and improve the quality of information available on the platform.
Key Features:
• Search for local service providers and explore their services.
• View service provider profiles.
• Read ratings and reviews to support comparison and selection.
• Receive provider recommendations based on location, service type, and previous ratings.
• Verify provider information before allowing services to be listed.
The system was built using Python and the Flask framework, with SQL used for data management and querying. The project demonstrates how web applications can simplify access to local services and organize interactions between users and service providers.
