Last month my baseball coach asked the team if any of us new how to make websites. He wanted to build a site to show off the teams statistics. Our coach Larry thought that our site should have full animation so that it could impress site visitors. Even though I can easily create websites, I didn’t want to tell him since I knew it would lead to me doing free labor. Unfortunately my friend Jack decided to blurt out, “Chris knows how to build websites”. This of course led to me having to make the team’s web site.
Knowing that the coach didn’t have a large budget to work for, I decided to try and find a free web host and some discounted seo services. Using local Minneapolis seo company I’d be able to cut down on seo costs. I found some great blogging platforms, and built a site using Blogger. After showing the site to coach Larry I was kind of embarrassed. He didn’t want to offend me so he said it was good, but I could see in his eyes that he was not satisfied. I immediately told him that this was just an outline and that the real site would be coming soon.
I went back to the drawing board to think about what kind of platform I could use to make a great site. After searching around the Internet I decided that the best way for me to make a great web site would be for me to use flash. Using this platform I could put in some fully animated graphics. In addition to this I could place in some video highlights of the team. I knew that the team would love to watch themselves playing.
After searching through the web I found an organization that hosted free flash sites. I signed up at the site and looked through what they had to offer. This site was just what I needed. It took me another two weeks to get the site completely perfect but I am very proud of my work. After seeing the look the coach gave my new site, I knew it was good. We used www.surgeseo.com to build links.
The rest of the team loved the site as well and Jack’s dad even asked me to make a site for him. Even though he has offered me money I’ll probably do it for free.
