    Hello all, I need your help. I am trying to find the best places to advertise this link:

    http://espsoftwaresolutions.com/portal_system_social_networking.html

    I have tried scripts.com and hot-scripts.com but traffic from them is minimal. Do you guys know of any other directories I can advertise our software at that will increase our traffic and sales? I worked very hard writing and debugging and I just need the perfect place to show people how great my software is. Any ideas are welcome, no matter how small!

    Also, do you see anything that might hinder search listings and what-not?

    Thank you ahead of time!!!

    Targeting the Search Engines can be the best solution for you. Target the keyword you think will help you get natural traffic and sales and start link building for the same.

    Try buying blog posts, directory listings with the keyword you plan to target, and see the traffic coming in. Get links from related software websites too.

    Hello...

    Depending on your budget i would suggest a few of the bidding directories as they send greater traffic..

    If you want those inner pages linked then find yourself deep link directories

    If i may also suggest that your site is on the border line for inclusion in most editors eyes
    and I would add more content if possible as well more pages...

    thx

    It would be nice if you create a forum (something like: http://www.phplinkdirectory.com/forum/).

    I think it will help create more confidence and people using it can discuss many other issues.

    try bidding directories, they are the best when traffic is considered!
    though i guess you will have to make a home page bid to get the most traffic!:)

    Hello,

    Have you added your script at search-scripts.com? I'll suggest you to add your script listing at as many script directory systems as you can. Webmasters go to these websites to search for scripts.

    God Luck...!

    You need to decide whether the 'high' traffic that goes to places like bidding directories are the type that is likely to buy your software, after all that's what counts, traffic for vanity, conversion is sanity. I certainly wouldn't start bidding for a place, waste of money imho.

    Start with forums like here, if you can't afford ones like this one, go to places like the phpLynx forum, Directory Owners, Sitepoint. People go along to these to download or buy a script because they want to make money, or create a site, seeing your advert there might sway them to think, 'hey that's an idea, I'll do a directory but I'll also do a social network site as well or instead' kind of thing.

    In a nutshell, go to where the 'buyers' go and that's places that offer free scripts or sell scripts.
