Launch your own Proposal Tracking website — and monetize it.

ProposalTrack is a self-hosted PHP/Laravel script that lets you launch a public, ad-supported proposal-tracking service in minutes. Anyone can drop in, upload a proposal, share a private link with their client, and see real-time analytics — no signup, no account, no friction. Built-in ad slots and full SEO control let you, the site owner, monetize every visit.

This is not a SaaS. It is a one-time-purchase script you install on your own hosting and turn into your next ad-revenue website.

How site owners make money with ProposalTrack

Freelancers, consultants, and agencies are constantly searching for "proposal tracking", "free document tracker", "see if my proposal was opened", and similar high-intent keywords. ProposalTrack gives those users a free, fast, no-signup tool — while you, the site owner, earn revenue from:

• Three pre-defined ad placements: header banner, before-document ad gate, and after-document banner.
• Configurable ad-gate countdown — visitors must wait a few seconds before downloading, increasing ad impressions per session.
• Custom code injection slots for AdSense, Ezoic, Mediavine, PropellerAds, native ads, push notifications, or any pixel/script.
• Built-in Google Analytics field for traffic measurement and remarketing.
• SEO-ready meta tags + Open Graph on every public page so you rank for proposal-tracking keywords.
• Email-collection at upload time — build a newsletter list of high-intent freelancers and agencies for affiliate offers.

How end users (your visitors) get value

Your visitors — freelancers, agencies, and sales teams — can use the public site without registering:

• Upload a proposal (PDF, DOCX, XLSX, PPTX, image) and instantly get a private share link to send to their client.
• Receive a private manage link to track engagement from any device.
• See real-time stats: total views, unique visitors, exact reading time, and any replies.
• View a 14-day chart of how engagement is trending.
• Receive an email notification the moment the client replies on the share page.
• Recover lost links anytime through the email-OTP "Find My Proposals" flow.

Every interaction takes place on your site. Every page view loads your ads. Every email captured is your list.

Why ProposalTrack is the right script for an ad-revenue website

• High-intent traffic — visitors are professionals (freelancers, agencies, sales teams) with strong purchasing power, which means premium ad CPMs.
• Sticky usage — once a freelancer uploads a proposal, they come back repeatedly to check views = repeat ad impressions.
• Shareable by design — each share link sent to a client brings new visitors to your domain. Free viral growth, every single proposal.
• Web-based one-click installer — no SSH, no Composer, no command line. Install on cPanel in 5 minutes.
• Built on Laravel 11 + PHP 8.2 — modern, secure, future-proof.
• Full white-label — your logo, favicon, brand colors, meta tags, custom HTML.
• Demo-mode toggle — show off your site without the next visitor breaking your admin credentials.
• Clean, well-commented source code — every controller, view, and migration is readable and easy to extend.
• One-time payment. Lifetime license. Zero monthly fees, ever.

Who should buy this script?

• Site builders & webmasters looking for a fresh ad-revenue niche with low competition.
• SEO marketers who can rank for "proposal tracker", "document tracker", "free proposal sharing" keywords.
• Affiliate marketers targeting the freelancer / agency niche with relevant offers (CRM tools, invoicing, productivity apps).
• Hosting resellers wanting a flagship demo site to attract small-business hosting customers.
• Entrepreneurs who want to launch a real, useful free tool that earns from day one.
