19/12/06 - Return of the Google AdSense Ads

Most of the heavy duty coding has been completed so I have replaced the Google AdSense ads.

Sometimes it is a lot easier to work with the web design process without the risk of clicking on your own ads (which could result in account closure).

17/12/06 - Side-By-Side Comparison

Price Tapestry is a script that allows me to upload CSV and XML feeds and it converts them into MySQL database entries. It then provides an interface for someone to search for the cheapest price for particular products.

What it cannot do is compare product features. After all, the only product data that it can extract is from the XML or CSV file and that is usually restricted to product name, product price, product price and retailer name.

Hence, I have spent the last two days building a feature comparison. More

The site has progressed further now.

I am still working on the search comparison and that is not yet linked to anything else.

Also, because it is hosted on the DBFCS server, it means that it will be included in the Google Sitemap that is created for DBFCS. This will help get www.comparesatnav.co.uk into the search engines quicker as it will be linked to from DBFCS.

My original aim was not to link to it from DBFCS but due to the hosting solution, this is now not possible.

However, to anyone who thinks this is an unfair advantage, I run a link exchange from this site so if you want to have a link here (www.davidfiske.com is in Google by the way!), visit the link exchange page. More

This is the result after a day of work on the site. It is far from finished but is starting to look good.

This does not yet resemble the plan drawn out but should do soon.
