How do web developers create blogs.. do they keep uploading pages or do they have a database Set up?
4 Comments | Posted by admin in web developers
As mention the number one set up for a self hosted blog is wordpress.org. This is a FREE script you download and then upload to your server/site. Once uploaded you will need to create a msql database for your blog.
These are also know as content management systems as you mange the content from within a admin section. All you do is write the text then publish every thing else is done through the script.
So the answer to your question is they use a database to run the blog. Hosting your own blog has it’s advantages, you can write what ever you want. You are also not subject to the TOS you get if you use one of those hosted blogs ie wordpress.com or blogger.
Hope this of some help,

You have to setup a server or subdomain.
Server: Apatche
Subdomain: Blogger… etc.

They have database driven websites. However, there are already pre-built applications that do this, such as the ones the answerer above has linked. If you plan to create your own blog from scratch, then knowledge for a server-side language (PHP, ASP, ASP.NET, etc.) and SQL is required. Most pre-built solutions make use of PHP and MySQL, since they’re free.
