I am trying to get some input on a script I am about to develop so please help me out. I am about to develop a Link Directory Script and I plan on incorperating the following features:

Link Exchange Script:
-mysql auto install page
-pr feature: tells the page rank of listed websites
-alexia rating
-email: sends email to owner about new listings and if to accept them
-must have form for websites submitting there link
-subcategories
-simple design that is easily editable
-written in php and mysql
-links in directory will be direct links!

Now I am curiouse what other features you would like to see in this script, and how much you would be willing to pay for this, please be realistic!

Thank you for your input!

Something that I've been looking for is some sort of subscrbe to category feature. Whereby user can be notified instantly/daily via email of the latest addition of scripts in a particular category or the whole directory.

hmm i suggest that you take a look at the best other script that you find (the best one I could fin costs $200) and use those features. Because you have left out many and I simply cannot be bothered to list them I'm afraid. I won't setllte for anyhting less that great because if its a half hearted attempt then it's not worth doing...

I hope you are not trying to infer that price determines how good a product is, because I plan on charging no more than $30 for this script.

Thats not what I waying. I was saying that the best one I found was $200 now if I could find one of the same standard for less than that I would exstatic.
