Notice first segment:

<?php

include 'template/header.php'; ?>

You must always include opening tag: <?php and ending tag: ?> In between them we have an instruction to 'include' a file called 'header.php' which is located in a folder on your web site called 'template'. Obviously these can be renamed to anything you like.

Now for second segment:

<?php include 'template/footer.php'; ?>

Again, we have given an instruction to 'include' a file called 'footer.php' which is also located in a folder called 'template' on your web site, in same directory or folder as your 'index.php' file.

To see these files individually go to: http://www.seazzypromotions.com/example/template/header.php and http://www.seazzypromotions.com/example/template/footer.php

and view source code on those pages using your web browser.

Now you can add content to your web pages by inserting or copying and pasting existing code between PHP segments of your 'index.php' file as shown above.

That is it! To change any information in 'header.php' for example, just open that file in an editor and make your changes. Then save and upload 'header.php' to 'template' folder on your web site.

Go to 'index.php' and all your changes are magically included. You can see benefits of this. If you had a site with 20 pages, all your changes happen on every page by just editing this one 'header.php' file.

Just 'include' header and footer files into every other page you make as in 'index.php' file, calling your second page for example 'products.php', then 'contact.php' etc. The only thing different between all pages will be content you insert between header and footer sections.

------------------------------------------------------------

So, if you have put off learning PHP until now, I hope that this has encouraged you to make a start. There are countless other ways to use PHP and maybe one day you could even program your own safelist script using it.

Use source from examples and make changes to 'header.php' and 'footer.php' files and see this in action for yourself.

Above all have fun!

Do not fall into trap of constantly changing your page to try and get listed high on a search engine. Because what you do for one search engine, you will have to do something else for another one. Write your pages for people that will be coming to your site. Utilizing this basic but sound practice, will keep your visitors coming back time and time again.

Now for codes.

<meta name="Description" content=" "> <meta name="Keywords" content=" ">

Just put inbetween parenthesis a good description of your site and in keyword line, your keywords that you want to be indexed under.

Your keywords need to be utilized in your html document effectively. If your content is good, and you have utilized your keywords effectively, then your job is done. Just sit back, and wait, for search engines to reward you.
