Also why would it be hard for my link list to grow without a script? can you explain

All i have to do is add the links into the html and overwrite the old index file.

first off link 2.0 is shareware, if you use it to make money you have to purchase a liscense for it

if you try to do it by hand it is 100 times more work than using a script and it will be way harder to grow you site... say you want to add more categories, rotate your links, change stuff around it will take forever and be a big pain in the ass and you will get sick of it real quick as it will take up all of your time just adding links...

most scripts once you get them installed are really easy to work with as everything is pretty much automated, if you can't install it you can always pay somebody to do it and it won't cost you much...

if you want a script where you can keep your current design check out Link Admin it is the only non-template driven script that I know of

if you are only gonna add a few links a day you can do it by hand but it really does get old after awhile

I would not attempt to run a link list without a script (see sig...hehe), but I do most of my own hubs by hand - gives me the opportunity to try out different link text and whatnot, and since I don't build a lot, it's not difficult to keep up with.
