The databases listed here provide useful content for your website, but should not be considered for use as stand-alone websites themselves. Because this information is publically available, it will be repeated on many different websites. You will simply have duplicate content if you use the same data in the same way as everyone else. Instead, consider these databases as supplemental material to enrich your website. Find a database with information relevant to the subject of your site, and extract part of the data best suited to your site. Just because a database has four of five (or ten) fields with information in them, does not mean you need to use all of those fields. Extract out only the information that will be most useful in your own situation. For example, this site exists for the sale of data. So, taking the news headline databases in our list, we extract out just those titles having the word 'data' in them. We might want to use other parts of that database on another site, but for this site, we will just use the title field and source field. That particular database also has fields with the date, url for the news story, and category the story was found in -- but for this site that information would not be helpful. We just want the title and source. If I wanted links to authority sites, I could add those to the sources by stripping the page reference from the URL, or use the entire URL and link the title to the actual story -- though oftentimes news organizations remove older stories. I could easily write a short PHP script to display selected results for different keywords, for use in a sidebar, and set a different keyword for each page on a site. The possibilities are almost endless... There are 49 titles in the 4th Quarter 2007 News Headlines database with the word 'data' in the title, but we want to have fresh-looking content (even when it isn't so fresh), so we will just extract out some of those at random, for display here today. The little script behind this display will automatically change which dozen or so of those 49 records get displayed once per week. (The random selection can return duplicates, so those are removed -- thus the exact number, as well as the specific titles, change each week.) Data is in the news:
