Browsing Posts in Database / SQL

Directory-Submissions-SurferAs you might or might not know, I am currently building the most advanced desktop application available for semi-automated directory submissions.

You can argue the point about the value of submitting to directories, but from experiences, it’s a very inexpensive way to help grow your website’s popularity, and get free links.

Historically the problem has been cutting and pasting or manually entering all the fields. Well not only will the program contain 12000 free directories to submit to, it will have a database with preview images, preview descriptions, advanced data entry capabilities, ease of use, smart features and a terrific price for value…

It’s currently in late beta, and I’m submitting my community site while testing it, so I’ll keep every one up to date as to when it will be commercially available. I’m totally excited, because it’s really very easy to get a lot of links fast. and I hate repetitive tasks.

My Blogging Post HTML Creation Software

My Blogging Post HTML Creation Software

So I used to run Music City.net on another CMS. It’s really a directory of everything cools and for businesses in Nashville, Tennessee to advertise online. I had no convenient way to import posts into WordPress, so I decide that I would use Google cache of the old pages, and build a little program in Delphi to create the HTML, complete with WordPress shortcode so I could visit the site within the program, enter a few details, save it to a desktop database, and then create the HTML, and the shortcodes needed for my particular WordPress set up.

The basic steps are few, and a few hours of programming in Delphi allowed me to save hours of hand coding. I am thinking of developing a pro-blogger program that will allow users to create formatted HTML from some field values on the program’s form, save to DB, and insert custom text, and copy paragraph snippets via the embedded web browser.

This program took me about five hours to build, and some of it looks pretty bare bones, but it has helped me tremendously in time to import all my old listing into the new site. Click on the smaller thumbnail to view the software full screen screen shot.
