How to Create a web directory

Where's the best place to buy/find directory building software?

I want to create a directory for my site, but am clueless where to start.

 

Phplinkdirectory is very popular.
You can also try http://scripts.site-sift.com/
Both are nice scripts and got free versions.

 

Here are the list of sites

www.phplinkdirectory.com
www.freephpdirectoryscript.com

Download any one of these and read the instructions

Also you need to ave php,SQL for a web directory

 

esydicat could also be an option. I am using it

 

I recommend http://www.phplinkdirectory.com/

 

I highly recommend http://www.phplinkdirectory.com/

 

You can also try http://www.indexscript.com/ . That's also a very easy to use/customize directory script.

Thanks. I'm checking out phplinkdirectory.

Is it easy to upload to Dreamhost hosting?

 

Its basically exactly the same as any other hosting, through FTP or through a web interface.

 

Thanks.

One last question:

My blog is listed as my top level domain, but I want to change it to www.mysite.com/blog/

How would I do this? Is there a website that explains this process?

 

Simple really.
Create a folder "blog"
Then move all your blog files into the folder.

 

Wow. that easy. ok, and is there a 301 redirect plugin or software I can use to prevent the links from breaking?

I'm such a novice on web design.

 

If you want to install it on dh host,I'm afraid you should purchase the 3.x version.

 

Ok. thanks. It's seems like you get a lot more features for only $25 bucks.

 

Why? I have got an account at DH, but I was planning to install the previous version

 

I would get Version 3 - the paid one.

They only offer limited support for version 2.

Might as well get what you paid for.
