Coder Search! 

Believe it or not, me and my partner have been looking for a reliable coder to code the new myspacerush design into a working gamescript.net  website, so far we have tried two coders and both proved to be incompetent, wasted our time and delayed our plans.

I didn’t realize it was this hard to find a good coder! I’ve posted a topic on talkfreelance requesting one, got some replies but it doesn’t seem they know what they are talking about, only one of them sounds promising, hopefully he’ll be the one! if your a coder or know a reliable coder please share his info with us.

I’ve been thinking about launching something on this website instead of it sitting there collecting dust, I think I am going to place some SEO related tools for now, PR check, keywords research etc. until I get a chance to develop it further.

Freewebproxy.info

The other day I thought I should check the site’s cpanel, and to my surprise, I found out that the website was getting traffic! despite the fact that I never did any promotion, linked from one of my sites or anything, seems that it got around 250 unqiues and 400,000 hit (yes 400K hits!) from type in traffic, so I decided to work on it a bit, currently the website is getting around 50K hits a day, I think I’ll start offering banner ads on it soon.

Cheats website 

I’ve been thinking of starting a game cheats website, those website can get very popular if advertised properly, I have a domain name in mind but I am not sharing it now because I haven’t registered it yet ;) I’ll post about this website once its up.

Textit.org

I’ve started optimizing this free text messaging website for my good friend Imad in return for 50% of the website’s revenue, things are looking good so far, did some onsite optimization for it and will continue working on it this week. I think I am going to start offering my SEO services in return for shares in websites that I see good potential in, or for other services that I might need, design etc. I got an offer from a guy on WHT to optimize a myspace related website (layouts) in return for shares from the website’s revenue, I basically said no because there were lots of similar websites, however I am currently thinking of pm’ing him for more info and see if its worth the effort.

    GS templating is hell.

  2. Sohaib Says:

    Seems so, but there must be someone able of doing it, I’ve seen lots of custom designed GS sites.

    I have a guy who’s skinned for php Arcade Script before, he could probably take this on.

    As for SEO I think a flat free is a much safer option. The owner could always lie about profits or just not pay you.

    Hey Andy, thanks for the comment, we have found a coder and he’s currently working on it, he should be done by tom. (hopefully).
    And your apsolutly right regarding a flat fee, I eventually refused to optimize that website for shares, what guarantees do I have to get paid months later? non.
