How do you manage your sold links?

For those of you selling links for multiple sites, different time periods, etc, how do you keep track of everything?

Excel spreadsheets? Special software?

 

Just put <!-- Expires: Date --> if youre going to look at your code once in a while. You could also just use word or excel like you said.

 

Ha, never even thought of that one.

 

I use an excel to keep track.

 

Thats fine for a few sites, but many of us have 100's of pages we can sell links on. Does anyone use any software for selling/tracking link sales and exchanges for many sites?

 

simple txt file is doing it for me.

ServerUnion, I believe there's no software that could do that with hardcoded links.

 

If anyone using a spreadsheet could post a template, I'd like to see how you set it up and what data you list (link, page it's on, price, expiration, etc)

Thanks

 

I list all of that information on an Excel spreadsheet I show the actual link, location, expiration date, and amount paid. I probably will include a column showing the email address so that I can hunt people down to renew.

 

I use google calender, I do one entry with all the details, then one entry on the expiration date, with a link back to the details.

 

You could you Digitalpoint calendar

 

I use an excel spreadsheet, but I only have a few links to manage.

If you think about it, though, isn't all adbrite/adsense/bidvertiser is a link managing program?

I could easily create a pretty simple links system to use. Have a category for each site, give it the CSS code to use, then publish.

In fact, that seems like a really good idea and I think I might do it, lol.

 

they are, but not hardcoded.

 

would anyone be interested in a php solution?
paid of course... if there is demand I might try to figure one out

 

Excel is pretty good to use and easy to track based on date. I don't really think there is a need for any software.

 

I think I'll play around with Excel and try a few different layouts, and I might try Access too. Probably not necessary, but it could help later on for analysis and allow some cool "soon to expire" link alerts and such.

 

I used my outlook. Calendar for reminders, and task list for the details about the link, purchaser and amount.

 

I am using excel for mainting the links date.

 

I was using IBP and add expiration date and other details as notes. But i guess it will not be enough when my links to manage are too much..

 

Swift to do list lite & a spreadsheet.

 

I am using access tables to track
Created a table for Exchange, two way, 3 way and link buy and sinks sold.

So far so good.

Thanks
