Advanced Web Site Programming and Web Applications

The current trend for online services means that more and more sites are being developed with advanced features such as user registration and members only features. Also lots more people are looking to start purely internet based businesses, many of which require additional web programming and database integration (for example content management systems, online property searches, dating websites and community sites).

Added Interactivity

Web based programming is used in a number of areas to enhance the online experience. From the collection of e-mail addresses and user data to password protection and referral systems, virtually any site offering more than basic information relies on server or client programming. Broughton Designs offers the very best in web based programming techniques to ensure your site functions correctly and efficiently.

Database Integration

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

Typically, databases are used where sites require : Content Management Data capture Password storage and authentication Search engine facilities Online ordering systems Product lists Live content

If your site is currently hosted with another service provider we will  work with you to transfer your account to our servers.

Why PHP ?

In most cases we generally recommend that a site be created using PHP as opposed to ASP as PHP has proven in our experience to be a more flexible and stable development platform. The development costs for PHP sites are often less because most functionality is built in to the PHP language, reducing the need to purchase third party components to carry out specific tasks.
