Page for Visitors' Ads

[troels nybo nielsen]

One of my websites has a page where my visitors can put ads concerning the subject of that website. This service is supplied by one of the large suppliers of free web services. It works quite well, but I would like to put the page directly on my website for several reasons:

1. I want to get rid of those ads that the supplier shows on my page in order to make the service free. If I have to have commercial ads on that page I want to be able to choose them myself.

2. I want to be able to give the page the same design as my other pages.

3. I want to have the page indexed in search engines. I have never been able to do this with the current service.

4. I want to be able to edit all text that is not part of my visitors' ads. I do not want to have English vocabulary forced upon myself and my visitors.

5. I want the page to have a URL under my own domain.

6. And as an extra feature I would also like my readers to be able to answer the advetisers anonymously in boxes that are not read by other visitors.

7. I am aware that all this will have to cost money, but my website is in a very small niche and can't afford to pay an expensive service.

Can someone show me a solution that would fulfill all these wishes? Or do I have to forget it?

Sounds like you want a "feedback system". There are several blog programs that will do what you want. Some like PHPNuke do a good job at it.
