Thread: Seo Friendly Classified Script?

I may have posted this question already, but I'm asking again

Does anyone know of a mod_rewrite capable classified script?

No takers?

I thinks Noah's classified script using mod rewrites. It's the only one I have found so far.

This is partly why i'm up writing code.

I don't know if its worth getting involved with Drupal for such a simple task. But Drupal has a Classifieds module that is quite flexible. Since it uses the Drupal framework you can give it search engine friendly url's and stuff like that.

However you really need to learn a bit about Drupal to use it. You can also use Drupal's CCK (Content Construction Kit) and Views (An SQL Query Builder) Modules to arrange and sort it by desired fields such as Location, Ad Type, Price etc...

It would be a bit of work though and its not really what Drupal's sole purpose is, but it would be relatively efficient at it.

I had a look at that one, but the options for the URL structure were a bit rudimentary

The kind of mod_rewrite I'd be looking for would be:

/category/sub-category/item-name.html

or something along those lines

Hi "blacknight".
I've used reefLESS classifieds software.
I found this script in google "Seo friendly classifieds script"
I like it. May be you can find better solution, but i couldn't.
Good luck "blacknight".

I contacted REEFLESS Home page :: Boat classifieds software - flexible, multifunctional, SEO friendly classifieds script , and I would beware of them. It's $600 for the SW, they are located in Russian, but they don't supply proper WHOIS / Phone / Address details. I was not able to get a review of their reefless SW

I contacted another owner of the SW to see if they had any good feedback.

Still waiting on a reply.

We had a boat and jetski classified site as like a hobby thing up until recently. We ran it on a windoooz server so seo urls were not an option, however listing regularly popped up number one in google and yahoo relating to the product listed. Have a look at the 68 classifieds website, good software with regular update also using smarty templates.

Why not?

There are seo modules / addons for IIS that can offer very similar functionality to mod_rewrite
