Build Your Own Music Charts and Search Website
SongCharts is a PHP script for creating a complete music website that combines live song charts with a powerful music search engine. It draws on the YouTube and iTunes APIs to show current chart data and help visitors discover songs, artists and videos in one place.
What SongCharts Does
Visitors can browse the top songs for a chosen country and genre, search for music with helpful auto-suggestions, and preview videos before exploring further. The homepage highlights recent searches alongside the top 100 songs chart, while dedicated search, chart and music-details pages keep the experience clear and easy to follow.

Ideal For
SongCharts is well suited to music blogs and websites, music discovery platforms, affiliate marketing sites focused on music, and educational resources covering genres and artists.
