SurvivalRing 5.0 Site Planning and Design

Monday 19 November 2007 @ 12:31 am

If you happen to come across this website layout while visiting SurvivalRing, congratulations.

What you are now looking at is the workshop layout of the next generation of the entire SurvivalRing website. Since 1997, SurvivalRing has undergone several iterations in design, layout, and technology. This newest design is the next step into the future.

SurvivalRing 5.0 brings the web site structure into a completely database driven system, with template layouts, contextual advertising, full search functions, download management, member registration, and a ton of new obvious and not so obvious programming tools.

With this upgrade, pages will load faster, navigation will be vastly, vastly improved, all site upgrades, editing and programs will be done online, and security will be improved tremendously.

Stay tuned. As you see new areas here, send us a comment on what you see. Give us some feedback on the layout changes from our current site design, and this new design.

Our latest programming project for this upgrade is the new navigation panel you see above. There is still a bit of editing yet to do with it, but the look and feel are pretty much complete. Only a few of the pages are linked to within the navigation links. This part of the project will be complete by the end of 2007. Also by that time, all the linked pages from our menu system will be created, updated, and ready.

There is still much to do. A bit of very much needed programming still needs work, and this is the download management system. This is a key component of SurvivalRing. Currently, with ALL available download files totalled up, we have over 20 gigabytes of downloadable information, in zip, pdf, rar, and other file types. We also have over 50 CD images that are uploaded, and will eventually be available for download.

Managing all these downloads, tracking each file for popularity and availability, keeping hackers and freeloaders out, accepting comments and ratings about each file, accepting payment or donations for certain files, and securing the entire system is the biggest hurdle we’ve been working on for quite some time. It’s important to us, and should be important to you as well.

We offer hundreds of thousands of printable pages of unique, original, rare, and in some cases, unavailable until recently files. These cover ALL areas of survival and preparedness including new government info as well as historical and authentic documents with billions of dollars of reseach behind them.

Having suffered a series of server and/or site hacks in the last few years, and with considerable investment in hardware, software, hardcopy documents, hosting and domains, and a large amount of programming, we take our decade of work that we’ve invested thus far very seriously, and want to make sure we keep moving forward for another decade or three, to keep bringing these and future sets of information for generations to come. This means keeping our technology up to date, as well as the data we so preciously keep online.

Stay tuned to this page…stay aware of our project updates…and be part of the next generation of SurvivalRing. The future is approaching at the speed of light!

Rich

System and Hosting upgrade news

Friday 17 November 2006 @ 11:17 pm

SurvivalRing has been on the web since 1997. It started out as a single web page to support the SurvivalRing Survival and Preparedness webring, hosted way back then on Webring.org (now a poorly run Dot.Com company). Within a couple of months, the webring had 12 members webrings. By the late fall of 1999 (pre Y2K), SurvivalRing had 750 members and amazing traffic.

Starting in early 1998, SurvivalRing became it’s own website, with hosting, downloads, features, and a lot more. A budding online community was born.

Today, SurvivalRing has been beefed up on infrastructure and backend support, and now has the room, and power, to offer AMAZING future growth.

A New SurvivalRing Feature - SurvivalGear

Friday 22 September 2006 @ 11:26 pm

SurvivalRing continues to grow, in many ways and in many directions.

Visit our new SurvivalGear store, where you can pick up a multitude of survival tools, survival kits, survival food, and much more. Need to stock up on some potassium iodide? We have it… How about some Israeli Gas masks AND extra filters for everyone in your family? We’ve got that too. Maybe you might want a prepackaged Bug Out Bag…for the next tornado or hurricane that heads you way? We have them here, here and here

There are literally thousands of survival and preparedness items in the SurvivalGear store, including entertainment items such as classic survival related movies (The Stand, Red Dawn, The Road Warrior, Braveheart, and more), tools including multitools, rescue tool kits, emergency safety hammers, generators, and other neccessary items.

How about communications equipment? You’ll need a shortwave radio, handheld family walkie talkies, a CB radio for the car AND truck, emergency alert weather radio for the home, office, and vehicle, and for the really bad days…you’ll want hand crank powered radios to get news when there is no electricity or batteries in your home. You might even grab a police scanner to get a heads up on local events as they happen.

For around the home, you’ll want to consider MAJOR power needs such as a whole house generator, escape ladders, security systems, and food storage .

There is SO much more in the SurvivalRing SurvivalGear store. Drop on by and see how vast our selection is, and the quality of the products. Brand names you can trust, and fulfillment by none other the Amazon.com. All proceeds from our store sales go DIRECTLY back to this website to continue the work we’ve been doing for almost ten years.

If you find there is an area lacking in the store, or you need a specific item…tell me. I’ll add it to the store system so that others may find it much easier.

Finally, I’ve finished two college degrees in three years. Both of these degrees were to learn skills SPECIFICALLY to apply to this website, to continue enhancing the content and breadth of available technology in sharing the information we have become famous for. These degrees are NOT neccessarily for me to put on a resume and go work for someone else. They’re to apply to growing this small business into a long term tool for income for my family…as well as produce income opportunties and educational awareness so that you, too, can began your OWN business.

Visit the SurvivalRing Download Store, where you’ll find dozens of ebooks on all kinds of income opps, learning areas, self improvement, cooking, information products and more. Many come with resell rights, so you can open your own website and become an info-prenuer. The store uses Paypal technology, and after payment, you can instantly download your purchase and read it immediately. I’ve spent the past several months purchasing literally THOUSANDS of more info products, with the majority of them including resell rights, which I can pass on to you as well, and these will all be coming online in the coming weeks and months ahead.

I’ll even have full blown, turn-key websites you can purchase, download, and create your own online marketplace for literally pocket change. Products that will be available will also include website scripts, templates, fonts, art, flash, graphics and more. You won’t have to spend three years of your life and thousands of dollars, as I have, to take college classes and earn your degree. You will be able to create your own home based business, as I have. This has been one of my goals for years, to be able to offer this kind of tool to ANY family or friend, to help make ends meet. It is now reality. Take the time to visit the ebook store, view the details, and make a couple of purchases.

Survival is not just about surviving a storm, terrorism, or disaster. It’s about taking every opportunity that life gives you, including making your own way, with all your skills, to take care of your family the best way you can, while increasing the quality of your life. Let me help you in this area as well. It’s what I do best.

As always, if you have a question or comment, simply send me an email at the link below.

Thanks,

Richard ( rafleet@gmail.com )
