    Hi All,

    I know this is so day before yesterday, but I would like to implement this on my site ...

    I want to add those "subit your website" "add your url" automated script for reciprocal links. One of those that check backs if you have given a link back and if so then it adds it on the link page.

    I can only come up with LINK DIRECTORIES. I dont' wish to start a LD on my site, but rather have a links page. I mean I would love the added features like link ranking as per the traffic being sent etc.

    Can you recommend or (share haha) one?

    Cheers

    MD

    Most CMS's have their own version of this but one stand alone package I've used is XLink - (you'll need to google it since I can't post links yet) - but it doesn't check for reciprocal links like you mentioned (though that's pretty easy to add).

    Instead I'd check out this Hotscripts section - /PHP/Scripts_and_Programs/ Link_Indexing/index.html which has tonnes

    You can use two functions to check that:

    www.php.net/file_get_contents
    www.php.net/strstr

    First to fetch html of their page. Second to check if your code exists. Note one thing: It will only check if the data exists. If they put your code in comment (<!-- -->) tags, it will technically be there, but won't/can't be seen.
