Dec 16, 2008 - LRCC Now Database Driven
The Ludlow Radio Car Club site hadn't been given much attention for ages. Many skills have been learnt since which has resulted in numerous improvements.
The coding has been generally tidied up and URL rewrites put in place. These changes should hopefully aid SEO to some extent. A database has been created for the addition of a basic admin system, which allows content to be updated and handles the gallery images. This is a welcome inprovement as the site is updated weekly with the latest news, results, images etc.
Feb 24, 2008 - soEmo.co.uk Proving Popular Already
soEmo.co.uk - UK Emo Community is successfully progressing making all the time and effort worthwhile.
Users can now join the online community, make their own profiles and interact with others. soEmo.co.uk already has 65 active members.
Google Analytics is checked regularly, which displays some very interesting and useful site traffic statistics. The daily number of visits has recently shot up to over 200. The highest so far was 327 on Feb 22.
There is a significant number of improvements still to implement. A continued enthusiasm for the site means additions are always being added to the 'To Do' list for soEmo.co.uk
Furthermore, the site has hardly been promoted yet so it will hopefully get increasingly more popular, successful and useful for the emo scene.
Jan 5, 2008 - New Projects & soEmo.co.uk Progressing
Get Marketed offers many great opportunities; I have added another completed Website to the projects section. In addition to projects at work, I am still battling away developing soEmo.co.uk
A progess blog can be found on the soEmo.co.uk homepage. It's exciting seeing my idea come together. Hopefully users will be able to join soon! The site is already receiving steady traffic and it's interesting to analyse the visitors using Google Analytics.

I have managed to get around updating my CV at last as it appeared I was unemployed since University :O
Sep 19, 2007 - Apache's mod_rewrite
The site now uses mod_rewrite to remove nasty URLs.
Apache's mod_rewrite has enabled me to convert dynamic urls such as http://www.mdhirons.co.uk/index.php?page=Gallery into more user and search engine friendly URLs like http://www.mdhirons.co.uk/Gallery.htm
The syntax used to achieve this in the .htaccess file is:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^(.*).htm$ index.php?page=$1 [L]
[First] [Prev] Showing page 3 of 5 pages (24 items) [Next] [Last]
