The Advantages of Free PHP Scripts
If you are to prosper in a competitive online market then you’ll require some handy tools to help get you there. You’ll be losing so much revenue if you were to hire website designers to build you a bespoke site or script for each website you are going to build. This is why people and organisations have done the hard work for you – for free.
Below is a list of a few of the highly recommended free php scripts available to download and install within a few minutes, not only are they all very handy but they will save you a large amount of time and money.
1) One of the most popular scripts out there is WordPress, which I am certain you are already aware of. This blogging system has been established for years now and nearly every blogger out there has or will use this system at some time. Its high end coding even allows the user to create their own mods and themes to change the look of their blog.
2) Another useful free php script would be Dolphin, a social networking script which allows you (the owner) to setup your own social network like Facebook, Myspace, Bebo, etc. Completely free of charge! This script can be edited very easily and you can change the way it looks with some small edits. It’s a huge script so it may take a while to get familiarised to it, but this is a fantastic script that should be downloaded even if you’re not interested in social networking.
3) Drupal is a leading content management system which is available for free. It’s more or less another WordPress system, but different in its own way and not just for bloggers. Drupal is aimed at giving webmasters a CMS (Content Management System) that makes life easier when managing content and members. Not only does Drupal offer a great open source CMS but it is built so that programmers can produce some excellent mods and addons to the system which can make life easier for other webmasters.
These are only 3 of the most popular free php scripts out there and definitely 3 of the most effective. There are many other php scripts out there that makes life easier for website developers & programmers but you will not find anything better than these specifically for the niche they’re used for.
