Interactive database driven and content management websites

We can provide your business with a fast effective database driven website (for Internet or Intranet). For the technically minded, we use Linux, Apache, PHP and MySQL software together with JavaSCript and AJAX. We have developed cost-effective solutions across a wide range of applications e.g. recruitment, property, patent information, pharmaceuticals, blood transfusion, car sales, online shopping, estate agency, air-freight, etc. We always develop to your specific requirements and aspirations, and avoid a “one size fits all” approach. We can supply you with a range of administrative facilities that will enable you to manage the content of your website. Appropriate levels of security are incorporated so that you have control over access to your information. Your website can be operated as an intranet (in-house), an extranet (wide area private user group) or on the public internet.

Bespoke content management

We provide all the skills required to create and maintain your website and database. This includes design, project management, database and website development, hosting and operational services. We have created, and now support, a number of interactive database driven websites for companies in the UK and elsewhere. Most of these are accessible to the public but some are completely private. They all include a complete bespoke content management facility that enables our customers, and their clients, to control access to both the database and website content. Our experience will deliver you a fast, effective, web site in a short time with very low risk. We can also provide you with economical and reliable hosting and ongoing operational support.

Website design

We take responsibility for the complete development and handle all aspects of the website constructions and database. On occasions, we use external graphics designers to get an exact "image" for you, the customer. We will involve you throughout the whole development process and make the developing website and facilities available to you via a website hidden from the public. This will allow you to provide the feedback essential to achieving your website goal.

Search engine exposure

We will optimise your website so that it follows the rules for getting exposure to the web search engines. We will also advise you on how to get your site found by the web crawlers that constantly trawl the net looking for websites to add to their databases.

UK based (London and Sussex)

Global Databases is based in London and Sussex, England but can support customers in any part of the UK, Europe or the rest of the world.

E-commerce websites

We can build effective online shops using the inexpensive Actinic® software, complete with home pages, connections to web banking facilities, and with good search engine exposure. We ensure that the site style and characteristics match your type of business. For example, the style required for a garden plant supplier is rather different from that needed by an electronics retailer. We will make you a professional site that matches your needs.

Other databases - legacy systems

We can design and develop new databases, or convert old databases to relational format, to web enable them, or to connect them to paper publishing systems. Therefore if you have an old database that you either want on-line or simply transferring or upgrading then please contact us. Don’t let your valuable information go to waste!

Consultancy and prototype web sites

Being a small company, our service is fast, personal, flexible, and always to a high standard. We can perform complete jobs or act as part of a larger team. The directors of the company have many years IT experience gained in a wide variety of businesses including aero-space, television, simulation, engineering, hospitals, oil & gas, and news services. Global Databases has been supplying web technology services for over six years - which a very long time for an Internet company! Use our experience to check whether your idea is practical, find out how best to implement it, and how much it might cost. Use our expertise to get your website higher in the Search Engine ratings. Have an inexpensive working prototype made to demonstrate the practicality of your idea.
