I've written a little system for putting thousands of pages of content
on a database using PHP and .htaccess.

The way it works is you upload 6 files to a directory on your website
and you magically have content. One of the files is a template file so
you can put in your own style and ads. All I ask for is link back
somewhere on your site.

The system works on the three PHP hosts that I have, but I'd like some
feedback from other users with PHP.

You can look at what I've got at:

http://www.paperthetown.com/freecontent.html

I have the following content:

Cancer/Medical - A collection of medical terms dealing with cancer.
(zip file 780k, 4400 pages).

HUD/Housing/Lending - From the HUD website, a collection of over 300
housing and lending terms and their meanings (zip file 127k, 400
pages).

Patents/Trademarks - A Glossary of Trademark/Patent terms used by the
patent office. (zip file 117k, 500 pages).

Insurance Terms - 128 Definitions of common Insurance Terms. (zip file
50k, 150 pages).

Dreams - This is created from a manual of dreams and has 2200 pages of
symbols and signs that might appear in a dream and what they mean. (zip
file 537k, 2200 pages).

from internet user groups. (zip file 190k, 150 pages).

So basicly you make it easier to help cheat adsense and yahoo advertisers?
I sure hope Google and Yahoo learn to find these type of sites and ban them
from displaying their ads.

LOL. :)

And that 6pt text at the left of the page is impossible for me to read
without changing font size. :(

Ignoring the issue that if lots of sites use your content and thus the
likelihood of a high position on a search results page is low, what benefit
do you get from making this available?

When I first saw the subject header, I thought it said "Web
Content-Free" Unfortunately, that's true of too many sites (at
least if, like me, your definition of "content" is "meaningful
content")
