I think to have success you have to use public script rather than your own. I with my custom sites got nothing but expenses and even had all the coding work. Its better to not have any work at all with coding and use the best script that suits you...thats why i gave up making scripts, what for? Today im even more poor than when i started making scripts... Look at this forum for example: the owners didnt have a single bit of work with it and they got it pretty successful...dont be dumb dont make any scripts, making scripts will just make you older and poor One of my sites powered by my scripts was started in 2004 (even sooner than this forum), guess what...it died a long ago...nothing but ghosts and spiders there... *...pisses on personal scripts...*
I mean if I have your talent, I'd be making me some scripts and offer it on my site. From the constant traffic I'll get money and from that money I'll be rich...
