1. Social Network PHP Script
Best Social Facebook Clone
Social networks such as Facebook, Hi5 and others are the most popular website on the internet
visited by millions of people daily, we can say we live in the age of social networking sites. I
have already written about a social network PHP script called DZOIC Handshakes and now I
want to show another very popular and widely used social networking script or Facebook clone
which is used for hundreds of social networks.
I have checked the admin and user demo and for the flexibility of this social network PHP script
is very sympathetic. The basic installation is quite simple, but you can find a lot of perfect skins

thousands of threads such as questions, ideas, tips and free sources.
Personally, I like these support communities as I can always find what I
need and I can ask for help.
Moreover, this is the only social network PHP script that can be extended extremely by using
add-ons. You can find more than 600 free ad-ons and more than 400 paid ones. I’m sure you

for customizing your site, and improve monetization, SEO and to offer more value for members.
The admin panel of this social networking is very easy to use and it contains hundreds of options

plugins. I’ve created a short video showing PhpFox admin panel briefly.

Requirements
The requirements of this software are usual – most of the
hosting services have those. However, for using video and mp3
options FFmpeg and Mp3 encoder is needed, this is only
important if you want to allow users to upload videos and
audio. Though, for some bucks per month you can get hosting.
Themes of PhpFox Social Networking Script
You can find many templates for some bucks which helps you
to make your Faceook clone more unique. For example, this is
a free theme you can use, but there are many great looking
premium themes, too.
My thoughts about starting a social networking website
In my point of view, competing with the giant and general social networking sites such as
Facebook is impossible. But you can set up communities based on a niche. For example, you can
made one for Pet lovers, computer lovers, music fans etc. with this you can have a great
community based on the same interest which can create a good income by promoting products for
them based on what they are really interested in. For this project this social network PHP script is
the best choice.
