Default I want to start a article website on my PR6 domain

I want to start a article site on a PR6 domain that I have. I want to use articlems but before I do want to know if I would use articlems
will marketing people utilize the site for submissions in term of the way the script work.

Other word will people be happy using a articlems site and is it used by other submission services/programs

At this stage I don't want to buy a script as we want to see how it go. I dont want to use articledashboard as it is coded so it will be difficult to change things. Also they see to not update the script anymore.

I dont want to hear about the difficulties and negatives about a article directory as I have made up my mind I am doing it whether I make $1 or $1000 a month or nothing

Did you know that for $17 you can create your own Video Articles Instantly

If you have a PR 6 site, you could grab some quick dough for your script by allowing people to write an article for you in exchange for an in-text backlink. In fact, PM me, I'm interested.

Hi steffer,
have a look at this comparison table:
Article Friendly | Compare Article Scripts

I own a Articledashboard site and trust me there is no reason why you would like to use an outdated script without any support and LOTS OF SECURITIY ISSUES only to save a few bucks (been there)

feel free to ask away...

Honestly, if you take a look at the most successful article directories, they are custom builds. Ezine Articles, Go Articles, Article Base, even mine, The Phantom Writers.

If you are stuck on using a pre-built script, then I would encourage you to go with Article Friendly - and forget the rest.

But if you have the resources to have a directory built from the ground up, then that is the route I would recommend, as all of the really big name brand article directories have been built from the ground up and are unique in their layout and design.

Basic functionality is the same on all article directories. But there are a few advanced functionality things that can only be done with a custom build.

If going with a pre-built system, you may also consider getting the scripts to have the distribution companies submit articles to your site. It really depends on the direction you intend to take with your directory.

Get something custom coded.. then you can have it exactly as you want it and it will be unique.

I would agree go with custom coded and not some free open source code that has security issues. I know many will shoot me down for this but that is their problem. I have been building sites for clients long enough to know why you should use custom coded.

Several reasons why you should go custom

* Better security as others will not know how it is built

* More Control over blocking all those nasty auto submitters

* Shows your authors you are here to stay and not just another free directory

* Better functionality, build what you want to begin with

Those are just a few reasons, I could list a great deal more.. I would highly suggest not allowing auto submissions because then many authors would never visit the site.

Just my opinion though ...

You're absolutely right about this. ArticleDashboard is NOT the way to go!

As to ArticleMS, I'm not sure if this is the one that will take automatic feeds through Yahoo Groups, but it's worth checking. There are about 3-4 Yahoo Groups where people put content and it gets fed into your site through some kind of widget or something.

The ones I know about are BestFreeContent, iSnare, and ReadMyArticles. I'm sure there are more, but I haven't looked for them yet. The drawback, of course, is that you can get flooded with a lot of crap, but it's a good way to get a lot of content initially. You can always turn it off and then weed out the garbage.

@MisterMunch - I've never heard of the WordPress AD option. Sounds great, so I'll have to check that out myself!

My advice: Go with AF - run it a couple of month and see how it goes traffic/article wise and then decide if you still like to go bigger!

I know a guy who spends 1-2 hours each day to check the new articles on his AD site and basically makes zilch in return!

What security issues, can you clarify?

Been using the script for years with no problems.

Perhaps you can enlighten us?

By the way, the its hardly outdated.

EDIT:

Followed your link above?

Article Dashboard is easily hacked and often is. I put up several niche article directories a couple of years ago and they were hacked and ruined two weeks later. Every time I cleaned them up and set everything up yet again, they were hacked again within a week or two. I finally removed Article Dashboard and parked the domains until I could find something that wouldn't get hacked and cost me hours and hours of time and aggravation.

Plus, because it's free, there's a link that goes from your site to Article Dashboard. Which wouldn't be so bad if it was a good bit of software, but it's not worth the hassle.

Finally, the forum is a joke and support is non-existent.

Go for article friendly, earn enough to invest on custom script.

Check this scriptlance site, clone of hubpages article site - ScriptLance Programming Project
a guy asked to clone hub pages and the winning bid is just $300. You can contact that same programmer who did that and get it for $300.

this is based on my own experience - I lost an AD site! Worst thing AD doesnt write the database properly so you might have problem to recover the site.... (well known issue)
the script is more than 4 years without any update - just consider how many updates you get with wordpress...

what I like about articefriendly - the owner is always around and helpful
the good thing about articlems is you can get some nice skins

I have some quality articles and I'm always writing new ones. I'd love to get in on a new PR6 directory and would be willing to pay for it. PM me if you're interested.
