phpLD Web Hosting
phpLD is a script for creating a link directory. It is one of the most widely used directory scripts on the internet. It works nearly on all PHP hosting environments and the script has been tested on over 25,000 websites. The website features a very active support forum to address any issues or answer any application related queries etc. The installation process is fairly easy. The only requirement is that the user needs to setup a mysql database name, login and password. The actual table creation is performed by the script. Customizing is a very straightforward process. All it involves is the modification of the header and footer files in the templates folder and customize the look and feel as desired.

System compatibility:
- Tested on PHP 4.2, 4.3 and 5.0
