Answer 1

You are not using pagination anywhere in the code. Please check the documentation on how to add pagination. You need to use paginate function when making the db call, and then use paginator links.
https://laravel.com/docs/5.5/pagination

Answer 2

{{$products->render()}}
put it below the end of the foreach loop.

Hi Please find pagination code here
Table:stocks PK:id,Varchar:name
StockController.php
<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\DB;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Redirect;
use Illuminate\Pagination\Paginator;
use Illuminate\Pagination\LengthAwarePaginator;
use App\Http\Controllers\Controller as Controller;
class StockController extends Controller {
public function usaPage() {
$stocks = DB::table('stocks')->orderBy('name', 'ASC')->paginate(50);
return view('stock.usa', ['stocks' => $stocks]);
}
?>
usa.blade.php
#section('content')
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-12">
<table class="table">
<tr>
<th scope="col">Company Name</th>
<th scope="col">ID</th>
</tr>
#foreach ($stocks as $stock)
<tr><td> {{ $stock->name }}</a></td><td> {{ $stock->id }}</td></tr>
#endforeach
</table>
