How Does it Work ?

We are providing a web site 'engine' for rental. By 'engine' we mean the fully functional web site code, dynamic server side processing logic, database interface and proprietary technologies used to drive a software directory site.

When you become a member and rent a MySharewareSite.com engine, we set it up for you, we host it for you, we send you a continuous stream of new and updated content.

You get control over the administration of the members, the software listings, site sponsorship, advertising, the processing queue and other site settings.

Because we have built it and will rent it to you, there is no need for you to know how to develop web sites, learn HTML or PHP, or become a master of dynamic content and relational databases. With a few simple steps, you can be up and running with a comprehensive site containing thousands of pages in a very short period of time.

Free Web Hosting
We host your site for you, on top of the line servers, with world class network connectivity, so you do not even have to find your own web hosting. There is no additional charge for our standard web hosting. Our standard web hosting provides 300 MB of disk and 20 GB of traffic. If your site starts to get really busy then we can increase your web hosting for a small additional monthly amount.

Customize Your Own Site
Through the editing of a number of graphic images, which you can do yourself, your site can be customized to your own look and feel to make your site look different to other software sites.

Constant Stream of New Free Content
We continuously feed new software listings through to your site automatically so you are constantly getting new high quality content for your site. MySharewareSite.com is owned by Castle Software. We have been writing software, creating web sites and running software directories on the Internet for well over a decade. We get thousands upon thousands of PAD files submitted to our software directories every month.

Thousands of Pages from Day One
Your web site will have thousands of pages from the very first day when it is launched. This means thousands of high quality pages which can be indexed by the search engines. Thousands of pages on which can sell advertising space, host Google Adsense, promote your own products, or promote other products through affiliate marketing.
