I'm a little unclear on the selling points for phpLD, which costs a little bit of money, over PHP Link Directory, which is free.

If one's goal indeed is to set up a regionally specific link directory, what can you with phpLD that you cannot do with PHP Link Directory? What can you do a lot easier with phpLD, although you might be able to eventually get it done with PHP Link Directory? Are there goodies that come with phpLD (other than the geo databases for the US and UK) that add a lot of value?

Thanks. I just want to be sure I understand the value proposition here.

I purchased the regional script and like it because it gives the visitor two views of the same database: regional or normal. I made my home page the normal view since this is what the search engines can more easily index. But once inside, visitors can switch to the regional view to see listings that way as well.

I will admit that the script needs some tweaking, but for $25.00, I feel it is worth the money.
