Story About Website Creation

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. Coach Larry wanted a site that would be fully animated and that would really show off how great our team is. 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. My buddy ended up telling the coach that I know how to make websites before I got the chance to tell him to keep quiet. Of course I couldn’t lie and say that I couldn’t, so I ended up being stuck with the task.

I knew cheap coach Larry wouldn’t want to pay for a web site or seo services, so I decided to start looking for free sites that I could use. I’d use local Minneapolis seo services to keep seo costs down. I found some great blogging platforms, and built a site using Blogger. Embarrassment hit me as soon as I showed the new website to the coach. 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 quickly let him know that this was just a temporary website and that the real thing would be built before the end of the month.

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. I’d be able to add visually appealing graphics with full animation. In addition to this I could place in some video highlights of the team. I figured the guys would really love to see some highlight clips of the team on the Internet.

After searching through the web I found an organization that hosted free flash sites. It only took me a few minutes to sign up and take a look at all of the functions of the site. It was exactly what I was looking for. 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. After this we decided to use surgeseo.com to get the site listed. Coach Larry contacted a local seo company to get us search engine rankings.

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.
