Never Underestimate PHP Upgrade - Proper modifications in any technology are necessary from time to time; similarly, PHP web development framework also undergoes upgrades as & when required. Newer versions of PHP have many performance improvements besides numerous feature additions that render it more useful for developers. Bug fixes and significant security improvements are a constant part of every upgrade. The new features can make your development life a lot easier.

Prioritize Password Encryption - Passwords have always been a matter of high sensitivity. Still, there are developers who make the fault of storing this sensitive data in database directly - and that too without employing any form of encryption. Leaving passwords in the database may cause serious issues later as there are hackers all prepared to crack the info anytime. To maintain better security measures, its recommended to store passwords safely using ways like MD2, MD4, MD5 etc. However, considering the ineffectiveness of public encryption algorithms at times, developers should create their own algorithm.

Embrace OOP with PHP - Object-oriented Programming or OOP was introduced in PHP 4 first; however, it was from PHP 5 that the major improvement started coming along. Procedure Oriented Programming has now to become a thing of the past as conditions now demand to get Object-oriented Programming with PHP. With this approach, you will experience higher level of flexibility besides shortened code lengths. Its not simply about code length but also keeping the code easily debuggable and more organized.

It will also cause nightmares for people who plan to review your code. Deep nesting is indeed a poor programming practice leading to a more uglier code. So, its better to avoid unnecessary deep nesting by making logical use of conditions.
