Site Sift OR Phpld ?

Hey,is there anyone using site-sift script?
I am a newbie,so I don't know too much about them.
Which is better?
Thanks,

 

They are both good, there are more users of phpld here and for a newbie phpld is probably better, just download the 2.0 free version and try it

 

Yea,I agree with you,as they are both good,I don't know what to choose..

 

The only thing I don't like about site-sift is the mod-rewrite always puts a number "/223/Home" the phpld 3.0.6 version is really cool a loot of new functionalities really worth the $25 it costs

 

Aha,that doesn't matter..I've installed site-sift script,you know,adding categories is really boring,I want to know if anyone could send me the "Category Database" who is using that script.(I know there's such thing for Phpld)

 

It maters because if you change script you lose you page history on the search engines..
I only use PHPld, if you need for PHPld i have several...

 

Thanks, As there are lots of people using phpld,I want to be different..I am also do not know too much about PHP,it seems that the site based on site-sift script is easier to customize.

 

phpLD hands down. I've used both, but I think phpLD has a lot more flexibility than SS does and there are more developers for it too.

 

Thanks,dude..I decided to go for phpld

 

You could also try eSyndicat .. http://www.esyndicat.com

 

Emily, phpld's backend is really nice and is the more popular script being used by this forum's members. You should also check out other people's directories to see what scripts they use besides the two scripts mentioned.

 

I am using an old version of www.site-sift.com script and I like it, see at www.i73.net !! Got very well indexed, http://www.google.com/search?q=site:i73.net

Looking at that, my vote is for Site Sift.

 

Thanks,Honey..I've already installed phpld,I'll build another directory with site-sift soon and have a comparision between them.

 

One thing I noticed, is that PR flows better on Site-Sift compared with PHPld v2.0 anyone noticed this on Site-Sift powered directories, I don’t know compared with the last version of PHPld 3.0 because very recent.

 

You are absolutely right -

I have a couple of both scripts and PR flows quite smoothly on site-sift than PHPLD - though phpld is easier to manage - but site-sift have better PR flow and the pages get indexed faster to phpld !

Seo Ocean

 

Huh?You mean SS script is more SEO-friendly than PHPLD?

 

No. I don't think so. both are seo friendly, but SS makes one extra directory in your URL.

 

I use phpld, but have no experinence with SS.

Is there anything that SS can do but not phpld can't (besides PR flow that some members have mentioned) ?

 

Jimkarter,I don't understand that ?more specific please

 

phhplddir will make page as
http://www.dir.com/Arts
or
http://www.dir.com/Arts.html

But SS makes
http://www.dir.com/44/Arts

You can see it in action at http://www.kamsdir.com (SS) and http://www.addyourlink.org (phpld)
