I have directory submission software that I would like a programmer to make some changes to. The software as it exists is pretty good but there are some subtle changes that could make it much better. If you would like a copy of the script to see ahead of bidding let me know.
The script itself allows you to create profiles for the websites you want to submit. It allows you to use a list of directories that are already loaded. You can also add your own directories.
The script autofils the submit page for you INCLUDING the category which you define when you set up your profile for your site.
The script allows you to open 10 browser windows at a time. It marks each directory as completed if the link submission was successful.
Changes I want to make up front…
1. When the information is autofilled into the submit page it doesn’t put a mark in the radio button next to the Regular Link field. Most of the time this is the field that will need to be clicked when submitting. I just need that radio button to be clicked when the form fills. Eliminates a step which can be hard on the hands after a few hundred submissions.
2. I would like a way to delete bulk directories from the list. Right now you need to right click – Delete on every individual directory you want to remove. Would be nice if I could highlight a whole list at one time and delete in a group.
3. I would like it to automatically load the next site in the directory list once your submission to the one before it has been marked successful. At the moment you bring up 10 windows and submit to all. It marks them successful but then you have to close all 10 windows and click on the next 10. I want it to simply load the next site upon success of the one prior.
4. The list of directories is contained in an XML file. When you upload your own directories it adds to this XML file. If possible I’d like that XML file to be a CSV file which would allow for easier addition or deletion of directories. This may take care of #2 above if it can be done.
That’s about it. Like I said it’s a good program already but it can be made better with these simple changes. I will provide the program if you want to look at it prior to bidding.
