    Hi friends,

    I am planning to create an Article Submissions Site where people can submit their articles and I will publish them on that site.

    I want your support and advice on the following points:

    1. How much space will be required to host the site
    2. What name should I keep
    3. Which is the best script I should use,
    4. from where can I expect more revenue, Google or Yahoo.
    5. Should I keep the article submission paid or free.

    Please share your knowledge with me so that I can have an idea on the whole project.

    Thanks,
    Naren

    This is a good idea. But if you want to make it more popular and increase ranking you must check all the articles manually. Use php or any script but the pages should be search engine friendly after generation of page. Use 2-3 networks to earn revenue google, adbrite, yahoo etc. Article submission should be free. You can make it paid type in future when it gains more popularity.

    Well it depends... First, you need to give people some incentive to post articles on your site. I doubt people will just come and suddenly want to have their article on your site.

    First you need to make the site more popular, get better search engine rankings etc... so first few month you will probably have to post articles yourself or alternatively hire some writers...

    If you just start on a new unknown domain - why should people post their articles there? They won't have any reason. Think about it.

    I am planning to use articlesubmitterpro.com, is it good or there are any other options?

    Is it possible to keep 2-3 networks for revenue generation?

    Yes domain is ok. It is keyword rich. Yes you can use 2-3 networks at the same time. We are using google ads and adbrite network at same time.

    Hey, you have misunderstood...I am planning to buy script from these ppl. They are saying it is the best of articles scripts.
    I have not decided the domain name yet.
