Database Integration It is becoming quite commonplace to find web sites that rely on a behind the scenes SQL database to handle content and user data.

Typically, databases are used where sites require :mysqlphp

• Data capture

Using well established and stable technologies such as PHP, MySQL and Perl we can create and integrate a database seamlessly with your site. We are able to provide database interfaces for both the user and the administrator, so you will be able, to view, add, edit or delete data directly from your web browser or compliant application.

What do we mean by Content Management?

We can create a web design for your internet business that allows you to update the pages of your website whenever you feel like it. You are in complete control of the content on your website and can manage the content on your web pages. There will be no need to ask your web designer to update or amend any of your text or images, you can do it yourself!

The best thing about our content management system (CMS) is that it is ideal for 'non-technically minded' users. If you are able to use Microsoft Word you will be able to use our software. Our content management software is a browser based web page editor and there is no limit on how many times you update your site.
