    Hi there,

    I noticed many people (including me) are sometimes confused about the correct section to sell your script / application products. Maybe you should post some guidelined where to post what as the market related to scripts / content is large enough to care about.

    Example:
    If we develop a PHP script and want to post it here, then it is very hard to decide if it is a product which would fit into the buy/sell/trade section or content because it adds content to a buyers web site.

    The same goes for a Flash application - it is a "product" but then again, it adds "content" to a buyers web site.

    If you look at the buy/sell/trade category you will find as many scripts as in the content category - because people are confused where to post a script which is basically a product but also content.

    If I had to decide I would place php scripts / applications directly to buy/sell/trade and only real content like databases, mysql dumps, expired domain list sales, article databases etc into "content" but like I said.. nobody really knows where to place scripts / applications as both categories would fit in some way.

    Maybe worth thinking about some guideline as there are more than enough content sellers and it seems that I am not the only one who is confused looking at how both areas are basically used for the same things.

    Content = something already created that is not a template or established website.
    Therefore content = prewritten articles, created videos, scripts.

    Mikey1090's response is on target. Scripts generally belong in the content area.
