About a week and a half ago I went ahead and made a post on WickedFire stating I would like to make a free tool to give back to the community that has helped me learn so much in the past. There were several suggestions, but the most popular were a PPV LP generator and a Facebook AdSpy. After talking to a few people, and Alex (WF Forum Member) stepped up and said he would donate a few templates to the program, I decided to go with the PPV LP generator. PPV networks have been under the spotlight recently and have been steadily getting more and more popular everyday. I would think a tool like this will benefit both newbies & those experienced in PPV alike. Pretty much anything you can do in this industry to save time is worth while, and especially if its free (which this tool will be). Just to give everyone a time frame, it will probably take about 2 weeks to complete because I have been pretty busy with school as well as getting some new campaigns set up.

I started off with the basic layout of the program earlier today, and would like to get some feedback regarding the actual functionality of the program. I’m going to be using the PHP framework CakePHP, along with MySQL as the database for this self-hosted app. I will be using Javascript to output the CSS/HTML files to your local hard-drive. I’m a big fan of jQuery and will be using it on this project as well. Ok enough of that, here are some features I am thinking:

• Easy  walk-through each step of LP design
• Background, text, colors will all be editable with a color picker
• Self-hosted app (will require something like WAMP/LAMP which most of us probably already have installed)
• Save settings for various LP’s
• Easy editing of links in LP’s (if you want to try different links just edit exist campaign and all new files with new links will be spit out)
• Save LP’s by name
• Output text file with every LP that documents basic info, such as campaign name, what affiliate link is present, background color, etc. This is to avoid having to open up each LP and see what it contains
• Mass generation of LP’s. For example, you design the LP and let’s say you want the same thing but split test between 20 different background colors, simple design the LP once, and duplicate with a different color to avoid having to go through the entire process again

I would like to add a few other things as well, but I need your feedback on this. Feel free to contact me on WF (adigitalorange) or just in the comments section of this post. Thanks in advance for any feedback. Also, if you would like to donate a template or two, it would be much appreciated.
