New site launched – www.maternityswimwear.org.uk

Posted on June 1, 2009 by Paul · Posted in Search Engine Optimization, Track our Progress 

Well after a bit of a break and some well earned rest we are back. We have created another site, Maternity Swimwear where we list the best maternity swimwear from the best retailers at the best prices including Maternity Bikinis, Maternity Tankinis and Maternity Swimsuits. This was a real challenge this one as it is the first site we have done with proper data feeds. We have pulled in the data feeds from merchants and are now pulling them out of our database using SQL and positioned them using php to create tables rather than using a table plug-in. Another steep learning curve for us but one we hope will stand us in good stead for future product related sites. We are very proud of the site and already it is ranked 6th on the 2nd page of google for “maternity swimwear” on the UK search. We hope to improve this by improving our rating and SEO. Have a look and let us know what you think.

    Hi

    Out of interest how hard was it to learn how to learn how to pull the products using SQL and put them in a table with wordpress?

    I have a site this sort of thing would be perfect for but don’t really use datafeeds so it’s the next thing on my todo list to learn.

    Hi Darren,

    The php, mysql coding wasn’t too complicated once I got the hang of it. I have drafted a post on this blog site with some example code to help you and other people out as there wasn’t much information out there that was useful for what I was trying to achieve. I’m having some problems with putting the code into the post even within code tags. Once I’ve sorted this out I will publish the post for people to rip it off and do what they need to because I don’t mind helping others out.

    Have you tried turning off the visual editor in the user profile menu on wordpress?

    This removes the wysiwyg editor when you create a post so you will need to be familiar with html, however by doing this I have found it removes any problems with adding code within a post / page.
