Please forgive me if some of the things that I ask are redundant ...
For some time now, I have been comparing scripts to try and decide which would be best for the portal site I want to create. I have pretty much decided that Links SQL is the best way to go, but I need to know a few things first:
1. Can Gossamer, anyone here in the forums, or any other 3rd party create custom templates for the style and design I want to use for the portal (obviously at additional cost) ?
2. Is it possible to change the search algorithm or method used, such that periodically, the SERP could be altered to combat spamming ?
3. Is there a plugin available, or can one be written, such that I could retrieve extra information about the websites, or links, that I would be adding to my database (ie meta tag info, etc) ?
As this project will, in the end, turn out to be a rather large project, the aforementioned are quite important for me ...
Thanks much in advance for your replies :-)
