If you want a couple of free links from a very relevant site here's a deal for you. Write a 500 to 1000 word article about your particular site's theme or market segement, emphasising the Internet relationship, and I will publish it in my InfoPool and give you the return links as part of the author credits. Have a look at this article http://www.compar.com/infopool/articles/news27.html to see what another webmaster has done. This is the general size and format that I would like.
One good way to have high PR links is to offer servers/badwitdh to opensource projects! This is really cheap for hosting companies and they will get a link from a site with PR 8 or 9. Nuno P.S.: If anyone wants to offer a new server to PHP.net......
I get traffic too - so a good source ! BTW - I also have an information base - all for small businesses. If you want to write something for me then please pm me or add to the contact form. see: www.teneric.co.uk/businessinfo/index.html Leeds
It depends on the server usage. For example, the main www php.net server has a dedicated 10 Mb/s link. But others servers, like servers that are only used to generate the manual, snapshots, etc, that aren't publicy avaliable don't need much bandwith. (just a good CPU and SCSI disks). If anybody is really insterested, contact the system guys at: system AT php DOT net (I don't remeber if is "system" or "systems", but try both! )
