Directory scripts?

WSN and Linker and Biz Dir are all good. Try K-Links as well, that is also kind of ok. It really depends on each person's requirements, that which ones suits best.

How many people are using the biz directory today ? and how many of them are the 4700 users with a lot of modifications ?

 

Try our links diretory script:
http://yabsoft.info/demo/yablinks
http://yabsoft.info
It is powerfull and fast.

 

Might want to fix the capitalization of "YabLInks" on the main page.

 

Any body know where to get the Free PHP Directory Script ?

Waiting

 

Waiting for what?

Download the script from http://www.biz-directory.org/directory_script.zip

 

i'll give another thunbs up for the biz directory.

 

Hmm... anyone reckon it'd be worth making my directory script available in some form? I like to think it's kinda original in terms of presentation at least (though it's very much yahoo inspired), and it is written from scratch, but not sure how much interest there'd be and if it's worth the time...

 

Looks good Davedx, what would you charge to customize it

 

Definitely worth sharing.

I'd love to try and set up a (small danish) directory of sorts. I got a couple of niches in mind.

Wouldn't mind trying out yours as it looks good. I take it for granted that you won't mind me changing appearances?

 

If I release it I'll probably make it shareware. It'd definitely be ok to customise it.

Will probably have a look at tightening the code up a bit more sometime this week. No time guarantees though, really busy with work at the moment

 

hmm .. i think that is a good script .. yahoo style .. shareware? by putting some backlinks? anyway good luck

 

I would definately try it.

Be sure to make it mandatory that it can be customized as much as they like but a link to you has to remain.

It can be a great way to build link popularity and those benefiting from the free script will be happy to support the author.

When you say SEO friendly, do you mean it's easy to optimize, or that the links added are search engine friendly?

I've been experimenting with this Linker script. While I like some aspects of it, I'm not so sure about whether the links would be considered true backlinks by the search engines. I want to give submitted URLs a SE friendly link.

For example, when a link is added, the address is like:

http://www.directoryname.com/Directory/jump.php?sid=1&url=http://www.linkedsitename.com

Even though the www link is included at the end of the string, can it really be considered search engine friendly?

If this isn't SE friendly, I'll get a different script. Can anyone advise?

 

Well here is good ASP.NET one....

Look at two examples of site done by their directory script.
http://www.uudir.com
http://www.uuiq.com

Pretty cool. I like it a lot(because it is my own script.)

 

Here is the one I use:

Most of the scripts mentioned in this thread needs customization to fit ones special requirements. The best option IMO would be to search hotscripts.com for simple managable scripts and then upgrade them according to the need .

 

Anyone know how to customize this Linker directory script so that it will be more SEO friendly?

http://enproject.codelib.co.kr/

ie.
http://www.domain.com/index.php?cat=1
changed to..
http://www.domain.com/cars/
or..
http://www.domain.com/cars.html

I've seen directories customized this way but have no idea how this is done.

 

Bos Directory is a free SE-friendly script with a small cost for removing the footer credit. Worth considering - I use it on a few niche directories: http://www.bosdev.com

 

That site is not found. Sorry man.
