Answer / sivaram
Well inside the appsettings is where you put all properties
that have to do with the entire web application you are
building. Connection strings can be placed inside the
appsettings to make it easy to connect each page from your
site to a database. Instead of defining a connection string
on each page, you write it once it the web.config and can
reference it from all other pages.
