SearchStar.net (http://searchstar.net/?) PPC Search Software is available for purchase for 40% off the retail cost. This is an unbelievable savings of $107.98 per copy!

SearchStar allows you to launch and automatically operate your very own PPC search engine quickly and easily while maintaining the look and feel of your site with easy to use templates.

This program comes with support for life and free upgrades for life, compared to the competition (which sells at a much higher price) and charging for long term support.

Thanks!

Just thought I would mention that I purchased this software from Refsoft last week, when this offer was first posted on this forum. And I must say this is an absolutely great peice of software.

Nice job guys, worth my money 10 fold.

Hi,

I looked all over the site and couldn't find example sites. I am sure there are, but can you post a few?

Also, can advertisers pay via payapal?

Hi,

We don't publicize our customers URLs or e-mail addresses for privacy reasons. The system supports all kinds of payment methods, Pay Pal will work fine.

Um, ok. Do you have a fully functional example site then? I saw bits and pieces, but not one on it's own domain.

Thanks!

Would be interested too...but would like to see an example site or fully functional site.

I currently use smartsearch which costs just $89 with unltd updates. In what ways is this better than smartsearch?

Thanks!

also, does this gather search results from any other sites to build up the searching routines like smartsearch does?

I don't know anything about searchstar. but I can tell you that smartsearch is a textfile database.

by converting the code into php and mysql you could get a huge performance boost and scaleability.

SearchStar is a Perl program which uses MySQL. This
is advantage #1 over SmartSearch -- power and
speed.

SearchStar can generate a page of 100 search
results twice as fast as SmartSearch, simple for
one reason -- relational database use!

you mean you could generate 100 different searches and 100 search results in the time it takes for smartsearch to search 1 term and report 100 result :D

well I don't think the ratio is 100 to 1 but I would not be surprise to see 10, 20 or even 30 to 1. because of going from flat file to mysql.

Well, 100-to-1 is just an estimate. I'll see what
we can do about a scientific test of the speed of
both products, however I am very sure that we are
at least several times faster than them.

The best,

That is still being worked on, should be out this afternoon or tomorrow morning.

Upgrades are free to registered users, though.

So all upgrades are free for life.

Is that correct
