Signing up in online casinos offers the user many advantages. The sign up is usually free which allows the player to designate his money only to playing games. Often the player’s online slotsaccount is started by the site. The online casino may offer as much as $800-900 free bonus just for signing up. This money is entered into the casino bank account even before the first reel is spun.
Whether you are an offline company that is using your online website as a means of promotion or whether you are someone involved in online business whose website is literally the lifeblood of your enterprise, good web design is absolutely necessary for you to succeed in the overall game of the online websites. The importance of a good web design can not be stressed enough for the simple reason that good web design leads to a number of other things.
Increased Revisit Rates: If your website design is of a good quality, what you are going to find out almost immediately is that people will want to visit it more often. Even if you only happen to be selling one product, as long as you offer support for that product and maybe a discussion forum about it, what you are going to find is that if you design your website well then people will return to your website often to participate in its evolution.
Word of Mouth Advertising: Have you ever had a friend tell you to visit a certain website? If you’re like most of the people around, chances are that at least one of your most frequently visited websites (and in some cases more than one) was a website you found only because a friend told you about it. A website can have all of the greatest content imaginable, but most people will not recommend it if it looks bad. People are worried about maintaining their reputations of taste and a poorly designed website is not conducive to that end, so people are less likely to tell their friends about your website if it has a bad web design.
Affiliate Morale and Sales: Have you been to Clickbank or PayDotCom recently? How many products are clearly available on just those two online marketplaces? Is there any reason that some products are immensely successful while others flounder almost from day one? Well, there are many reasons for that and one of those reasons has to do with affiliates taking pride in promoting a specific product. Affiliates do not promote websites that look terrible because they know sales rates are directly tied towards website design and layout and therefore if you have a good web design it will also lead to increased affiliate relationships and therefore increased sales. Because of all of these reasons, having a good w

In this Tutorial we are going to show you how to create a news script, it will update by itself when you enter new data in the database, for this we will be using MySql.Â
How.Â
Before we go any further and show code, we will explain the logic behind it and mostly how it works, we are going to create a simple database table that will contain the article text and other info. Anything you would like to have like category, writer, date etc.
Â
After that we’ll have to make a query that will call all of this info, when all of the info is returned to the script the script then shows it on the website, the good thing is that if we add a new item to the database a quick refresh on the page will show it instantly, meaning we wont have to write the page again and upload it again, cutting down on a lot of manual work.
Â
HTML first.Â
We are going work this with the help of a HTML table, the rows are going to be generated for each article to use for a loop. We will get into that later, first let’s see how this is going to look.
That’s our table layout wonderfully plain but it gets the job done anyway…
So let’s take a look at the code for this table.
Â
<table border=”1″ width=”500″><tr><td align=”center”>Title Here</td></tr><tr><td>Article Here</td></tr><tr><td align=”right”><font size=”1″>Author and Date</font></td></tr></table>Â
That’s just plain HTML nothing much to explain about it, if you don’t know html then you should probably be learning that before going onto PHP, what we want to do here is replace the variables with the following lines “Title Hereâ€, “Article Hereâ€, Author and Dateâ€, we’ll pull that out of the database, let’s see how that’s done.
Â
Â
Â
Â
Â
Â
Â
MySql Connect.Â
In order to pull data from a MySql database you will need to login the database so you need some information.
Username.
Password.
Address.
Database Name.
Once you have all of this info you can start connecting to the database. mysql_connect definition on php.net is
Â
mysql_connect ( [string server [, string username [, string password [, bool new_link [, int client_flags]]]]] )Â
If we were to connect to a localhost server with the username as root and no password we would use something like this
Â
mysql_connect ( ‘localhost’, ‘root’ ,’’)Â
This will work, but it’s always better to use variables with data in them to connect to the db, especially when your working on a big project where you can set all of the info onto a config file and you can pull the same info all the time, just by typing the name of the variable rather then typing the login info all over the place, also if your working on your site in your computer and then you upload it but the login info is different you just change the value on the variables and it works, otherwise you would have to edit all the files individually.
Â
For this tutorial we are not going to use 2 different files we will just start with the variables in the same file, so first lets declare the variable then connect to the database using them.
Â
$mysql_address = ‘localhost’;$mysql_uname = ‘root’;$mysql_pass = ‘putpasshere’;$mysql_dbname = ‘putuserhere’;Â
Now that we have all the info to connect we can write the string to connect to the database.
Â
mysql_connect ($mysql_address, $mysql_uname, $mysql_pass) or die (”There seems to be a problem with the SQL Server please try again later”);mysql_select_db ($mysql_dbname) or die( mysql_error());Â
Â
Â
The connection is a Boolean connection if succeeded then all is good otherwise it will die and stop the document right there and show the message “There seems to be a problem with the SQL Server please try again later†also we are going to set the mysql_connect string as a value to a variable because we are going to use that string many times so we are going to use this:
Â
$connection = mysql_connect ($mysql_address, $mysql_uname, $mysql_pass) or die (”There seems to be a problem with the SQL Server please try again later”);mysql_select_db ($mysql_dbname) or die( mysql_error());Â
Now that we got that sorted out we can go and look at how to pull data from the database and how we can use it.
Â
SQL database.Â
First we need to get our SQL database ready, first create a table with 5 fields called.
ID.
Author.
Date.
Article.
Title.
Â
Make sure you have set ID to auto_increment, now add any news with any info to it on the database (Note: the date wont work yet since it will need to be input with php to then be read out again, but that’s not going be in this tutorial). If you do not know how to create the Mysql database, please check out our forum and post any questions you may have.
Â
MySql Query and MySql results.Â
Now we’re ready to start to get some query on the database and update our site with it.
When you want to pull some data out of a SQL database you need a query. A query is a lot like a search you tell the database what information you want out of it and it will return it to you for our Example we want everything from out table called news so the query will look like this.
Â
SELECT * FROM `news` LIMIT 0 , 30Â
As you can probably guess it says to select everything from the news table, the limit is for return purposes that will return the first 30 results. You can change that or get rid of it all together but is good when you have a lot of news and you want to have different pages showing more and more. Now we need to integrate that query into php so what we do is declare a variable and give it the query as value.
Â
$news_query = ‘SELECT * FROM `news` LIMIT 0 , 30’;Â
Next is the result variable.
Â
$news_result = mysql_query ($news_query, $connection) or die (mysql_error());Â
On this string you see that php actually calls out a mysql query using all the strings we have set up earlier, on the die section this time we don’t have a message but we have mysql_error() this will tell us what the error was if any.
Â
Â
The While loop.Â
This is the main part of the program, a while loop will go trough all of the info on the database and display them on screen, the while loop logic is very simple.
Â
while(condition){Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â If the condition is through every thing between the {} brackets will be executed}Â
For this we are going to fetch results from the query we made earlier. Then there’s going to be results shown that will be looped, when no more results come up the loop will stop by itself, the syntax for this is.
Â
while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result))Â
Now all we have to do is echo the right data, we set up a table for the output as we saw at the beginning of the tutorial. On the first tutorial in our November 2006 issue we showed you how to display a php variable that was something like this
Â
Echo $variable;Â
Now we are going to mix the 2 together, having a variable and static data displayed on the screen, we do that by connecting with the echo, the process is really simple. In an echo everything that is between quotes single or double will be displayed as if it was typed, everything outside it will need to be a variable with a value that can be displayed. We can connect things together very simply, let’s say we have a value that gets changed depending on what the user types, so we have a html input form where a user can type in a number and we want to display on another page the “you have typed: X well doneâ€. X is where the number the user type would be displayed, to do so what we need to do is get the value and assign it to a variable that we are going to call $number, and then we are going echo everything like this.
Â
Echo ‘you have typed: ‘ . $number . ‘well done’; Â
So as you see here we have closed the quotes, then used a full stop before and after the variable, then we opened the quotes again, this is how you show static data and variables at the same time, now we can use the same idea for our script like this.
Â
echo’<tr><td align=”center”>’. $row[”title”] .’</td></tr><tr><td>’. $row[”article”].’</td></tr><tr><td align=”right”><font size=”1″>’.$row[”Author”].’</font></td></tr>‘;Â
As you can see here we open and close quotes a lot (Note: when you use echo to display html you always use single quotes for the echo otherwise you will encounter errors because double quotes are used in html as well), the $row[“titleâ€] means that we want to display from the last row of data only, the title information on the database you can change with anything you like, the final while loop will look like this.
Â
while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)){Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â echo’Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â <tr><td align=”center”>’. $row[”title”] .’</td></tr>Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â <tr><td>’. $row[”article”].’</td></tr>Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â <tr><td align=”right”><font size=”1″>’.$row[”Author”].’</font></td></tr>Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â ‘;}Â
This will display 30 news you add in the database, because if you remember on the sql query that we made earlier we had LIMIT 0, 30 you can change the limit to your liking and have different results, on the next tutorial I will show you how to make it dynamic so that we can have more pages of news and also how to display a single news, plans for now are to show first the basic, then when the basic are done we’ll create a fully featured blog that you can use on your website, it’s all for this tutorial, thanks for reading.
Welcome to another SEO read my name is Shannon, I am interested in helping you to do what others charge you to do.Â
I get asked a lot of SEO related questions and im happy to answer them, every now and again I see a question that is out of the ordinary and I think it’s important to clear up these odd questions as these topics get more and more popular in our SEO world.Â
Question: Are Page Bottom Links I Pay For Good? They Are Page Rank 4-7’sÂ
Long Answer: Well im sorry to say, that if you have purchased bottom page links your in real trouble in terms of how much that link will really help you.Â
See here is the thing; the bottom of pages have been used so much for SEO spammers, the Search Engines consider links in the bottom footer if there are a lot of them as spam. The only places you can get away with links that have actual strong value are on the side of one’s site, or in the main page content. Â
That’s why the links I sell are on the side or in the page content. I don’t want to risk your site being listed as spam because of a stupid mistake someone make’s in thinking that a link on a page is a link on a page, when that is not correct any longer.Â
If I am going to buy a Page Ranked link, the first thing I do is ask where (exactly) it will be placed. If they can’t or won’t tell me, then I take my business to someone who will. There are plenty of high page ranked spots you can buy out there.Â
Now let’s say you sell links (Nasty Business Ain’t It?) if you take this article and inform your customers of the potential harm others can cause by placing your customers link in a footer, they could be labeled as spam. So if you inform your customers, you are more likely to gain repeat customers (At least I have had several repeat customers because of it)Â
Hello all it’s my time to rant, therefore just be quite and listen!
Â
So you want to get real traffic that counts to your website? Well your in luck, this is the one place where you can learn how to do it! Traffic as we know it, is simply people coming to your website for a specific reason the reason is yet to be decided. So the first step in getting real traffic is to have something real on your site that makes people want to come and generate that traffic which you desire. Here are a couple of ways to generate traffic fairly easily.
Â
User Forums: User forums are a great way to get constant traffic on any website, the problem is that if it gets big and most usually do it will be a big bandwidth eater.
Â
Article Submissions: There are lots of places where you can submit articles / tutorials with a link to your site. This generates traffic as if someone who read your article liked it they will usually check out your site to see if you offer more. So be sure to have some good content on your page for them to be happy with!
Â
Directories: While directories don’t necessarily draw traffic to you themselves. It will create you good inbound and back links. These will both help you get ranked better in your selective keywords. The best traffic comes from a site which ranks well, plain and simple. The only way to rank well is to get links o plenty. Our site has a list of places you can submit to for inclusion. If you get into half of these you will probably generate a few hundred strong links.
Â
After the above is done its time to start altering your content so that people who visit will be happy. Having features like video upload, contests, prizes and the like are also great.
