Websites that use Databases

We refer to more complex websites as 'dynamic' websites. These are websites that use special code (like ASP.Net, PHP or Coldfusion) and have a database on the 'back end' that holds the information displayed on the website's pages. For example, you may submit a search for products and a list of corresponding products are returned. This product display is a collection of information that is retrieved from the database and displayed for the user depending on the selections that they have made. Another feature of this kind of website is the ability to send newsletters to customers, have customers subscribe for items/newsletters or accept payments online.

Websites that have a Content Management System (CMS) also fall into this category. The CMS allows the website owner to change the content on website pages in an easy to use fashion, giving them complete control over the management of the site. When creating a website with an integrated CMS, we may create a custom application that suits your needs, or alternatively suggest using an Open Source CMS which is more inflexible but may reduce cost significantly.

Below we have a selection of these types of websites (those which we are allowed to put in the public domain).

Pacific Union -  Augetaway Loyalty and Rewards Program

Ask Judy Moss (PHP Drupal Website, Content Management System, MYSQL Database, Website design)
This website uses Drupal - a powerful open source content management system that uses PHP and a MYSQL database. It allows its owner to edit the information displayed in each and every page.

Drupal is a powerful application with many built in functions like newsletter sending and an online store to name but a couple and helps reduce development cost since it has the core infrastructure already built.

Ambius Australia - Content Management System

Ambius Indoor Plants Australia (Rhythmyx CMS, Website design, PHP Website)
Rentokil Tropical Plants changed its name to Ambius and with that arrived a whole new look and a new content management based website.

Since the mother company used Percussion's Rhythmyx content management software, we agreed to create the new site within the Rhythmyx structure. Even though Rhythmyx is proprietary software that we don't use, we taught ourselves how to use the software and created a fabulous new website, because that's just the kind of people we are!

We are very proud of their wonderful new website ...

Ambius NZ - Content Management System

Ambius Indoor Plants New Zealand (Rhythmyx CMS, PHP Drupal Website, Website design)
Rentokil Tropical Plants in New Zealand changed its name to Ambius New Zealand and we created the same look but with a different colour twist to suit the New Zealand branch.

Again we created the website inside of the Rhythmyx content management software, we agreed to create the new site within the Rhythmyx structure, because that's just the kind of people we are!

Another gorgeous website...

Irrigation Australia - Coldfusion, MySQL database

Irrigation Australia Limited (Coldfusion, mySQL database, website design)
The Irrigation Association of Australia underwent a merge and a make over and BLAST was with them all the way!

We worked closely with the design company responsible for their new branding by specifying a website design that was attractive and highly functional for its members. BLAST then customised its proprietary content management system to allow IAL staff to manage their website content.

What a wonderful new look...

Marine and Coastal Community Network (PHP Drupal website, mysql Database)

This site is a visual feast. A clean design and striking underwater photography coupled with easy to use menus make it enticing to the user and a pleasure to navigate.

A PHP content management system (CMS) powered by a mySQL database accompanies it, allowing staff to make the necessary daily updates to content.

Feast yourself...

Frostbland website: Uses ASP.Net and MS SQL Database

Frostbland (ASP.Net, MS SQL Database)

Frostbland needed to portray a visually stimulating and elegant atmosphere, but at the same time illustrate their commercial soundness and market stature.

A beautiful home page with rotating banner images managed to achieve this perfectly. An ASP.Net content management system, powered by a Microsoft SQL Server Database allowed them to manage the brands displayed, capture online requests and upload password protected documents for clients to access.

Take a look...

Imagemakers website built using ASP and an Accss Database.

Imagemakers Ladies Office Wear
(ColdFusion, MySQL Database)


BLAST was employed to create a website that allowed users to view their Corporate Wear range online as well as being able to request a Catalogue or Price List.

Download time is a critical factor since this site is hosted in a country where the majority of their customers only have dial up connections. Thus the design is clean cut and image free. CSS drop down menus are used, rather than graphics and Javascript which would slow down the pages further.
