(+) One Easy Method to Create Online Databases for Your Website, Replacing Spreadsheets

Have you or perhaps your local genealogy society accumulated a lot of information that you would like to make available online, either free or for a fee? Indeed, many societies would like to publish tombstone information, local tax tax records, school records, and a lot more local history records online. However, there is one difficulty that often blocks organizations that do not have web publishing experts amongst their members: "How do we do that?"

Unfortunately, publishing listings of thousands of pieces of information is not as simple as creating an HTML document or an Excel spreadsheet. A true database is a better way of publishing records online, but such a solution also can be rather complex. The most common solution is to create a SQL database or something similar, then write a custom "front end" to it that users can use to query the database.

Simple? Well, yes, that is simple IF you are an accomplished programmer. Luckily, there is a one solution that requires some technical skills, but you don't need to be able to write a single line of SQL code.
