Combining
a database with a web site is one of the best ways to create
a highly sophisticated web site. In fact, the power and flexibility
offered by integrating a database with a web site is the foundation
for today's most popular web sites.
The reason why a database driven web site is so powerful is
because the entire site can be easily updated with new content
as frequently as desired. It is even possible to customize a
web site for each individual visitor. All major search engines,
portal web sites, and news web sites use a database with their
site in order to provide you with new content on an ongoing
basis. There's no team of web designers cranking out web pages
- it's all done automatically by retrieving information from
the database and constructing a new web page when one is requested.
Such a site is called a dynamic web site since it can be changed
very easily, as opposed to a static web site which is much more
difficult and costly to change.
Our experience with dynamic database driven web sites is second
to none. Just about 90% of the sites we design are database
driven or contain this technology. It allows us to build sites
with the most powerful features and capabilities. We have complete
control, and can update and maintain any of our sites effectively.
The
fact is that if you want the best web site possible, with the
best set of features and capabilities available, then you need
a dynamic database driven web site.
The following is a sample of a working model.
