Hello;
I'd like to see a newbie level thread on building the kind of mysql/php driven sites that Eli talks about in his SEO Empire post, so I thought others might like that as well, especially since we have several DBMS experts on this forum.
I'll start with this site I found - Dave Wooding is a guy doing a Camtasa video tutorial on this on his blog. He's building an affiliate web site by loading a vendors RSS feed into Mysql with a searchable display template and documenting it as he goes.
I don't really like video tutorials ( I'm old school, I read books, type stuff in, and watch it crash), but for newbies it may be helpfull. You can check it out at Dave Wooding.
For those who don't know, the php and Mysql manuals are both online at PHP: Documentation, and MySQL :: MySQL 5.0 Reference Manual.
I'd like to hear what kind of success others are having with database sites and so forth too, but I'm really looking for code based examples, tutorials, and such.
I know basic SQl queries, designing and indexing tables, etc. from my MSSQL server days, but the Mysql server on all our shared hosting is a different beast.
What say you?
