Social Network System

Hi,

I'm looking for a cheap Social Network System, I found a couple on Hotscipts but does anybody have some advice on the pricing and quality of the programs

Thanks

 

Check out Havli.com. The social networking script is called SeeMySpace. The script isnt live yet, but will be this month.

 

have you tried to use pligg? it's time same script with digg.com

 

We will be releasing a Lite phpRaven version for an affordable price, please hang in there... I promise it won't disappoint you.

 

Hi all,

I received a PM with a pretty good offer for Handshakes v3.2.. As I don’t have to many experiences with these programs I was hoping to get some feedback.

Thanks,

 

I've heard PHPfox is pretty damn good.. but I havnt looked into this kind of software for a couple months.

 

pm me when it's ready

 

elgg.org

Try this it's free.

 

Try elgg, the scripts on HotScripts.com and also check out pligg if you are going to create a Digg-like site. There are many social networking site stock scripts out there as well -- search for myspace stock scripts and you'll find many of the best

 

Phpizabi is good. It's a little different, but it's free and open source. I prefer elgg, but phpizabi is an option.

It's phpizabi.net

 

There are so many clones available...like myspace,phpfox etc etc...u can just give them a try and hire a programmer to modify them as per ur needs

 

I think that you will find these "scripts" to be limiting. When you want to modify them you will have to know some programming or pay someone to do it for you.

I looked into this same thing about a year ago and went with what looked promising at the time which was boonex "dolphin" http://www.boonex.com/products/dolphin/

What a mistake that was. To many problems, not enough support etc. etc.

If I had to do it over again I would go with the Drupal CMS. It will take more effort in the beginning to develope it into a full blown social networking site but the effort in my opinion is worth it.

You will be able to customize your site and make changes when you need them without digging into the code or hiring someone to do it. Plus there is a large community that supports it.

If you want an out of the box script, then Drupal is not it. If you want something that you will make your own and have a community to support it then I would go with Drupal. Imho it is the best "social networking" software out there.

 

Well,

Let us know what you are looking for, check out this thread:

Using a paid service (SNAPP) from Me.com you can set up a complete social networking site....

In this link i've reviewed their service and diff. plans....

 

You can try Pligg 9.6, quickly and stable.

 

Thanks for all the feedback…I will have a look at elgg..Or maybe a paid script which is more flexible.. Keep u posted about my experiences.

 

It should be ready by September/October.

I will keep you posted.

 

very interesting, hope you guys will get to release it earlier than september...

 

That will depend a lot on our finances, we would like to hire more extra help but at this point we cannot.

The success of this product will largely increase our ability to hire more people to come work with us and deliver our product updates in a more timely manner.

 

drupal, takes a bit more time a effort but its worth it.
