Hi everyone:

I am wondering what kind of PHP scripts make the most money? How much are the most expensive PHP scripts worth?

Here are some detail categories:

Shopping Cart
Forum
News Publishing
E-mail system
Search engine

Thankx!!!

    Dangit.. I voted wrong... I meant "corporation" as they usually bring in profit from their websites, and the programmer(s) should be payed proportionally.

      Key words: should be.

      Someone want to talk to my company about this?

        And if the money isn't in the script but in the service...?

          Don't know here. So many carts I see are in ASP 🙁

          But it's what I've earned the most programming, so far.

          Forum

          VBulletin, (for example, this board) is a tad pricey when you take into account the fact that some systems that are similar in capability are free ....

          I guess we could ask JStarkey if any of his salary comes from the ads we see here ...

          News Publishing

          Hmm, I'm thinking Excite news, but they're not nearly as big as some others. Yahoo! perhaps?

          E-mail system

          Talk to Yahoo! and Excite ... this is where they are big .... 😉

          Search engine

          Hmm, don't know that many search engines are in PHP. Certainly portions of them could be. Google uses a lot of Python, so I've been told; are there other search engines? .... 😃

          Why doesn't your list include "intranets" or "business related web applications...."? I think that PHP could make some inroads here.

          And then there's "server administration," but AFAIK you don't sell those scripts, just do 'em yourself....
