    Well the best link bid script is (arguably) PHPLinkBid.

    The host? It doesn't matter as long as it stands on fast-loading servers with no downtime :)

    The PHP scripts in order of popularity:

    1. phpLinkBid
    2. Custom Developed.
    3. Link Bid Script
    4. phpLinkDirectory + Link Bidding Mod

    If you need to know how they "work" then I would suggest visiting one of the top 2 and reading up.

    As for hosting, Rezo hit the nail on the head.

    If you want to see an example of a bidding directory, go to bidilicious.com there are a lot of examples. But you must first know what do you intend to do with a bid directory and what you hope to achieve from it.

    I'd say phpLinkBid is the best as it has a wider developer and discussion base.

    Although I am staff so I am bound to say that :D
