Hi, here's a link with many different scripts you can try.

As for hosting, just make sure the hosting company you do use has PHP, and MySQL access. I use dreamhost and it's been excellent to me. Great service.

Don, how many lists do you run? I've been thinking of starting one up, to send my traffic that didn't convert. I use toplists quite often but always wondered about starting one cause you see a lot of lists that give out so much traffic into it and hardly get any back. Most of the time I end up getting double/triple what the #1 position has and I'll be halfway down the page.

This post might not even be coherant, I kinda just woke up so... hehehe

right now I just have 2 running but have 4 more et up, I just have to do a little tweeking of the code and get some sites added. Honestly how quick the list grows and what kinda traffic it produces depends alot on how people send traffic and also the niche. I could force 1000 hits from one of my sites but if its all blind links then most of the hits are not gonna click anything so that makes it look like people are sending a shitload of hits and not getting anything in return, you can look at the numbers here and see what I mean

Babes in Boots sends alot of traffic but from what I can tell 99% of it is skimmed traffic so the productivity is low.

Thanks. Cause I read up a bit on this stuff a while back and just put it on the backburner as a future project. Anyways, the article talked about if you're going to set one up, make sure you can send a few Ks each day to it yourself to make sure the list is worth signing up to for other webmasters.

Anyways, still a backburner project for me now. I'm working on building a directory now. Found a decent script, have to build the site around it.
