SQL Database, Pros and Cons of Using SQL

If you work with databases at your place of employment, at some point you are bound to run into the SQL database. This refers to structured query language, which was originally designed as a means of managing data with a common language. The scope of SQL includes the ability to insert data, submit queries, update and delete data, and control the point of access. This programming language has been created to meet ANSI and ISO standards, and is widely supported by the majority of database products on the market today, making it a beneficial form of coding or language to learn if you are interested in a career within the database industry.

The main benefit of SQL database language is that is allows you to immediately insert, update, delete, or retrieve data with simple commands. It also allows users to take on administrative functions, and manage the database. Data can be accessed remotely with SQL. Those who appreciate this type of programming language say it is due to the fact that it is easy to learn, with most of the commands being almost common sense. It is also widely accepted across a variety of platforms, making it close to a universal language in database systems at this time. Yet this may not continue, as the world of programming and software engineering is always changing its course.

The original SQL database features were inspired by theories of calculus and database management. The most common operation that those using SQL choose to perform is the query. This is achieved with a simple use of the select key, which is able to retrieve data from numerous tables. The exact location where this information will be retrieved depends on what command you add on to the original select function. You can choose from where, group, having, and order as additional retrieval functions, allowing you to automatically not only find the information from its various databases, but also order it to your specifications.

If you are thinking about using SQL database language or programming features at your current place of employment, it is helpful to arrange for a tutorial with your employees, so that they can learn these basic codes and shortcuts. Printing out cheat sheets is also a good way to ensure that they will have no problem finding the right commands, and in time the SQL language will become like second nature with practice.

10 Major Advantages of HTML5

Basically HTML5 has it’s many new syntactical features, which include the <video>, <audio>, and <canvas> elements, as well as the integration of SVG content. Due to these new elements, it will be very easy to integrate multimedia and graphical content to web without using flash and third party plugins. There are also another new elements like <section>, <article>, <header> and <nav> which enrich the semantic value of the document. Other major advantages of HTML5 are described below.

1. Mutuality

Due to usability purpose the web sites made by developers are highly interactive nowadays and for this developers need to include fluid animations, stream video, play music and Social Network sites like Facebook and Twitter into the websites. Till now they have only the option to integrate it with the help of Flash or Silverlight, Flex or javascript like tools. But these consume so much time to develop and even the complexity of web application also increased. But now with the help of HTML5 it is possible to embed video and audio, high quality drawings, charts and animation and many other rich content without using any plugins and third party programmas as the functionality is built into the browser.

2. Cleaner markup / Improved Code

HTML 5 will enable web designers to use cleaner, neater code, we can remove most div tags and replace them with semantic HTML 5 elements.

3. Improved Semantics

Now it is easy to see which parts of the page are headers, nav, footers, aside, etc as the tags are specific for these all and most importantly know what their meaning and purpose is in whole the format. By using HTML5 elements we can increase the semantic value of the web page as the codes are very standardized.

4. Elegant forms

HTML5 enables designer to use more fancier forms. Even it makes form validation native to HTML, User interface enhancements and reduced need for JavaScript (only needed in browsers that don’t support form types). There will be different type of text inputs, search and different fields for different purpose.

5. Consistency

As websites adopt the new HTML5 elements we will see more greater consistency in terms of the HTML used to code a web page on one site compared to another. This will make it more easier for designers and developers to immediately understand how a web page is structured.

6. Improved Accessibility

Different technologies can elaborate on the features with the help of HTML5, as they can Immediately make more detailed understanding of the structure of a page by take a look at HTML5 elements it has.

7. Fulfill  the need of Web application

Many new features and standards have emerged as part of HTML 5. Once you detect the available features in today’s browsers, you can take advantage of those features in your application. Main focus of HTML5 is to make easier application with easy front-ends, drag and drop tools, discussion boards, wikis and other useful elements.

8. Offline Application cache

All browsers have some kind of caching m After a sometime, you open up your laptop and click the Back button in the browser hoping to see the previous page that was opened. However, as you are not connected to the internet and the browser didn’t cache the page properly, you are unable to view that page. You then click the Forward button thinking that at least that page will load, but it doesn’t. You need to reconnect to the internet to be able to view the pages. HTML 5, thankfully, provides a smarter solution. While building the site, the developer can specify the files that the browser should cache. So, even if you refresh the page when you are offline, the page will still load correctly. This sort of caching has several advantages like offline browsing, files load much faster and reduced load on server

9. Client-side database

While cookies have been used to track unique user data for years, they have serious disadvantages. The largest flaw is that all of your cookie data is added to every HTTP request header. This can end up having a measurable impact on response time. So a best practice is to reduce cookie size. With HTML5 we can do better  by using  sessionStorage and localStorage(two different storage in HTML5) in place of cookies. It is not a permanent database, but enables you to store structured data, temporarily.

10. Geolocation support

With help of Geolocation any one can find out where you are in the world and sharing that information with people. There is different ways to figure out where you are — your IP address, your wireless network connection, which cell tower your phone is talking to, or dedicated GPS hardware that calculates latitude and longitude from information sent by satellites in the sky. But The new HTML5 geolocation APIs make location, whether generated via GPS or other methods, directly available to any HTML5-compatible browser-based application.

This is only the overview of the HTML5 advantages, actually there is lots more to know about HTML5. In the near future HTML5 will become a online development language. It is assumed that it will not completely finished before 2022.So just keep it in your mind and start using HTML5 in your designs right now!

A WEB HOSTING GUIDE

DOMAIN NAME

When setting up your site, choosing an appropriate web hosting is perhaps the single most important decision. But don't worry; we at Incipit Creations can guide you thru..

If you're seriously doing business on the WWW, you may consider to have your own DOMAIN NAME. There are many organizations which handles the registration in their own country or specific regions.

WHERE CAN I HAVE MY SITE HOSTED?

This is the difficult question. If you cannot setup your own server, you may consider having web hosting providers to host your site.

You can choose from a lot of different WEB HOSTS. It's important to compare between different providers and to make sure that you really get the features you need, you don't want to pay to much, but still you don't want to be stuck with a provider that doesn't upscale your needs. You can opt for different types of web hosting like Shared Hosting at www.incipitcreations.com

FREE WEB PAGES:

There are many limitations of having your site host with free service providers. For example, you aren't allowed to make sub directories or use your own CGI.

SPECIALIZED WORDPRESS HOSTING

Why SEO?

“No news is bad news.” Heard that one before? The double-entendre is obvious, so I’ve recoined it: “No traffic is bad traffic!” Meaning: if you’re not getting any traffic to your site, that’s a bad thing. If you ARE getting traffic to your site (even if it’s from another country, or maybe not from your target market), it’s a good thing. So that begs the question that every website owner is asking:

“How do I get more traffic to my website?” This series of articles is intended to teach you just that.

So, let’s start by asking some of the important questions, like…

“Why do I need more traffic?”
The answer seems obvious, but it begs answering anyway. Did you know that a reported 20 crore people downloaded song "kolavari di" from the interner? 20 crore people!! and how these people reached to the exact website which were offering free song download?. Well, that’s the magic of having a website and getting traffic — to make sales of your products and services.

“What’s all the hype about? Really…”

There’s a lot of hype out there, people claiming they made Rs.100,000′s or even millions of notes. You may have listened to their seminars, read their blogs, even followed their advice… only to find that their techniques didn’t make you boat loads of money overnight. What a let down!

So, what is the hype about? It’s people trying to sell you stuff. That’s all. Their techniques may have worked for them, but they are not tailored to you and your business. Their information may be horribly outdated. Maybe it worked a decade ago, but people are still packaging that information and selling it. So, the first lesson you should commit to memory is: Don’t get caught up in the hype. Immediate solutions and successes are relatively rare. So, we recommend using sound online techniques.

“What is SEO?”

Search Engine Optimization. SEO is a series of techniques you can use to get search engines like Google and Bing to send you FREE traffic on an on-going basis.

Why SEO?

Getting the search engines to rank your site higher than others is like a popularity contest. As with all popularity contests, the rules change often. BUT, there are certain concepts and proven techniques that never change, and can be used by any business.

Focus on using proper keywords and key phrases on your website. By using the right words and phrases, you will tell search engines what your site is all about — what your niche is. Doing this properly is the first step to getting search engines to like your site so they will send you traffic.

If you have a friend who is a professional web designer, he might help you. On the other hand, with enough research on the Internet you might come across many websites which can help you with your first website design task.

Now, if you are just a coder, then how will you manage with the graphic design? You might hire a graphic designer.

Again, you may hire a freelancer to keep your expenses as low as possible. Before you settle down with your first website design, it is imperative that you choose a good domain name for your website.

Make sure to include your keyword in your domain name as it can enormously help you rank well on search engines. With your first website design experience, you will gain maturity. The first website design has been a very intuitive lesson to almost all professional web developers.
