There are a few requirements that your site
will need to meet before you can install our free link exchange software. If
your website is using a website builder or online shopping cart were you type
in or paste in text and the actual webpage will be generated by your software
our link exchange software will NOT work on your site in most cases. You will need to have
the ability to create a new blank page on your site and paste in our code, you
can add your header and footer to your new link directory so it will match
your website's theme.
You will need to create a new page on your
website and add our code to that page, you will also need to place a hyper
link to your link directory page on your homepage. This will ensure it will be
crawled/indexed by the major search engines. There are a few requirements, you
will need to name your new page with either .php or .asp extension in order
for it to work and your web host will need to have one of those programming
languages installed on their server. Your web host will also need to allow
remote calls from your website. Which means they will need to have cURL or
fopen installed on their server (most do).
If you are using a free webpage provider such
as blogspot, geocities, bravenet, freewebs, myspace etc .. our codes will not
work with these free services.
If you use .html or .htm pages on your site and
already have an existing links page where you want to add your link directory.
This is possible. (see below)
If the server your website is on is running PHP
you can add a line of code to your .htaccess file which will allow your .html
pages to parse PHP code. You will need to contact your web host for
information on your server.
The line of code you will need to add to the .htaccess file:
AddType application/x-httpd-php .html .htm
