Where to put User Attributes?


doubledee

Recommended Posts

My website allows Users to register and create a User Profile with tons of info about themselves, for example

 

- First Name

- Username

- Email

- City

- State/Province

- Zip Code

- Country

- Age

- Interests

- Occupation

- Education

- Company Type

- Years in Business

- Industry

- # of Employees

- Member Since

 

and so on...

 

Originally I was just going to put all of those fields in my "member" table, but now I am wondering if it wouldn't make more sense to break things out and create a many to many relationship like this...

 

 

member -||------|< member_details ->0-------||- member_attribute

 

 

What do you think??
