    Tag cloud sites have come and gone long ago, I just don't see this making any money.

    I bought the script from Mike at http://taggus.com

    *recip - the point of the site is for seo... I don't really care about selling links but it was in the script... I think it's fair to ask for a recip and the recip can be on a different site.

    Tags on their own are a bad idea are they not? i think its only ok if they are part of a site, just as an addition, because its lots of random links bunched together.

    I don't know why they would be a bad idea... I am not going to accept links that aren't relevant to the tag.

    I've had to modify a few things so far but it's really a pretty good script. :) Very simple.

    Tag cloud sites are simply link farms and are viewed as such by webmasters and search engines. Also requiring a recip is judged by search engines as bad SEO.

    Seems this script is different. The taggus.com has some web directories listed in it. The home page tags point internally so its not a huge link farm. Just a tag based directory, rather than category based.

    Oh, that sounds a bit more interesting but will you include a list of categories on the home page too? I still think requiring a recip will make it tough to get listing and from my experience with directories most recip linkers (around 90%) scam you anyways.

    It has a cron script that checks for recips daily and disables the links with no recip. I plan to make a quality directory... every link will be hand reviewed. It might be a good idea for me to modify the script a bit further to add categories and use the tags as category specific. Does anyone have a category dump I could use?
