RELATED : PHP Dynamic
Websites and MySQL F.A.Q.
MySQL is a high-end database application. The vast majority of hosting plans will
offer at least one database inclusively.
Broadshout LTD are able to build websites which store, access and edit a MySQL
database dynamically using the PHP programming language.
Examples of MySQL usage
Storing registered users online in a secure database.
Even though your MySQL database is password protected we can increase security
further by encrypting information. Users information may include password,usernames,contact
details,etc.
Dynamic Products Catalogue.
Products can be stored easily using a MySQL database, information held in the
db would include product name, description, price, quantity available. These
values can be entered/modified through your websites administration. Values
such as quantity will automatically alter as products are purchased.
Orders and purchase information.
Order/Purchase information can be safely stored, including the products in
the Order/Purchase, the date and time of the order, the customer reference number,
the value of the order, status of the order, etc. This information could then
accessed by your administration and registered users to retrieve past invoices.
Visitor Information.
We can create the facility for your website to log each and every visitor,
and automatically save this information to the database. The country the user
is visiting from, the exact date and time, the site which the visitors came
from. (this is useful for measuring the success rate of online marketing).
Statistics and Trends.
All information can be manipulated to provide graphical and numerical statistics,
in the form of charts, graphs or lists. This feature can be extremely useful
for monitoring website traffic, peak times, best referrers, etc. It can also
be used to quickly check which products you sell the most of, what is the average
value of a purchase, etc.
Search Engines.
Using a combination of PHP and MySQL your website will give visitors the facility
to search quickly for specific items. For example a keyword product search for
'socks' could bring up all products whose name includes the word socks, or which
belong to the sock category. Equally users might wish to search by price or
colour, etc
