Where to advertise a new script

    So I've spent a month or 3 developing a complete script package (review site) and am now at the stage where I have just released it and set up a quick website explaining what it is/does along with a paypal checkout.

    I'm looking to get the word out about it as I think it has a lot of potential (hence the work commitment). Apart from the usual suspects like Dmoz, any places which are worth a try, like Hotscripts, specifically for commercial scripts?

    Thanks for any suggestions you have :)

    Dunno, try hotscripts.com
    I checked it out and I have to say I love it. It's a really cool script.

    No problem, too bad its per domain licensing though.
    I think you should integrate it with shopping cart systems to get the most bang out of it.

    The script is fully customizable as per your needs. I've kept it relatively flexible so people can easily modify it to their own needs. Plus, a good shopping cart would make it at least twice as expensive.

    As for the domain licensing, I need to be able to keep tabs on the script so it doesn't get thrown around ending up as a common turnkey resell script. It's too good for that :p

    if you want to start to sell it, you need setup demo, and get some people's real testimonials. Also, you need a sales letter which persude others to buy it. based on my experience, developing the system is easy. it is much difficult to have others buy it.

    I was thinking more along the lines as a plugin for oscommerce and zend cart and all those.

    Would be surprised if there was not already a review plugin for those. Flying bear, there is a demo here.
