Database Driven Websites

Database driven websites run off a central database
and use a content management system (CMS).

This type of setup makes your website "dynamic".

In this type of site the page content is separate from the design.

This allows for quick and easy updating of text, images, and links to documents
without having to edit the actual web pages themselves.

IC9design also creates new websites, provides services for making sites
mobile ready and builds ecommerce/online shopping cart web sites.

What is a Dynamic Site?

A dynamic website changes whenever it is presented to the visitor. Maybe it's something simple, like a series of special offers or banners that change when a button is clicked. Or maybe it's a series of calculations that are pulled from the database.

This type of site changes depending on what the visitor selects. It adjusts the experience the visitor gets by using the information stored in the database. When the database information changes, so does the site.

A Perfect Example

A good example of this type of website would be CNN. Just imagine how many articles, photos, ads, and news topics CNN provides. Now imagine how many pages are on the cnn.com website (there are 3,570,000 and counting - we checked). All these pages are fed through a database enabling a hands off approach in the addition of new pages.

When the database is updated so is every page on the site that is meant to use the new information. And new pages are created dynamically.

Time And Commitment Benefits From A Database Website

  • Allow any user or user group the ability to make changes to the content.

  • No web design experience needed.

  • Extremely short learning curve due to a simple and intuitive interface.

  • Divide and conquer your content - this enables your website to have consistent and current information at all times.

  • Restrict access to only the pages you want the user or group to edit and modify.

  • Build a chain of approvals and release only when all parties involved have accepted.

  • Multiple users can be on at once.

  • Changes are immediate. There is no lag between when the change is made and the time it’s live.

  • Simply refresh your browser to see the newest changes applied.

  • Enter information and hide it until you’re ready to release.
