ASP.NET 3.5 Link Directory & Article Directory

ASPLD Update:  Unfortunataly due to our workload development on ASPLD stopped, however in the next few months we will be rebuilding ASPLD for v4.0 with a lot more features, and make it easier for people to modify.  In addition we will be using SubSonic as the DAL.

CURRENT VERSION 3.0

(ASPLD) ASP.NET Link Directory is an open source fast and highly scalable listing / link & Article directory - It has been built from the ground up in ASP.NET 3.5 C# .

One of the great features of ASPLD is that it has been built using a three tier business architecture, with has great performance features and is VERY customisable - In addition v3.0 now lets you choose between turning ASPLD into just a Link Directory, just an Article Directory or BOTH!

Contracted with NVG, Lee from n3o Web Design was instrumental in delivering our new VisitColchester website in 2006. He really helped interpret what we needed in a technical way and made some excellent suggestions during this 6 month project.  The site is now transformed and has delivered a 30% rise of monthly users and the trend keeps on rising - We are delighted!
