5 :: Explain what are the custom fields in wordpress?
We will add extra information to your post by using custom fields. Custom Fields are a form of meta-data that allows you to store arbitrary information with each WordPress post.
Meta-data is handled with key/value pairs. The key is the name of the meta-data element. The value is the information that will appear in the meta-data list on each individual post that the information is associated with.
To display the Custom Fields for each post, use the the_meta() template tag.
To fetch meta values use the get_post_meta() function.
For example we use custom fields:-
<?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, ‘key’, true); ?>

7 :: Tell me when are you supposed to use endif to end the conditional statement?
When the original if was followed by : and then the code block without braces.
8 :: Explain me do I need to know any programming to make updates?
To initially setup a site and customize it you will, though you don’t need to worry about that because that is what we are doing for you. Once the site is setup we will train you on how to perform the updates (very simple) and you will be good to go. In order to perform the content updates you may need in the future you will not need to know any programming at all. I compared it earlier to using Microsoft Word and it really is that easy!
Forget about having to hire a programmer to make simple text updates on your site from now on, you can go in and do it yourself in a matter of minutes.

MySQL is widely available database server and is extremely fast. It is an open source and it is available at no cost also it is supported by many low-cost Linux hosts so its easy for anyone to host their website.
10 :: Explain me how do I prevent my images from being hot-linked by another website?
You can use your .htaccess file to protect images from being hot linked, or, in other words, being linked-to from other websites. This can be a drain on your bandwidth, because if someone links directly to the image on your site, then you lose the bandwidth.
