Website Creation Story

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. 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. I’d use local Minneapolis seo services to keep seo costs down. Using Blogger I created a site for the team. 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. 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 figured the guys would really love to see some highlight clips of the team on the Internet.
A thorough search of the Internet brought me to a place where I could get a free flash website. It only took me a few minutes to sign up and take a look at all of the functions of the site. This site was just what I needed. Although I ended up devoting an additional two weeks to the site I am very happy with the new look. After seeing the look the coach gave my new site, I knew it was good. We used www.surgeseo.com to build links.
After seeing the site, my buddy’s dad asked me to create a website for him. He said he’d pay me, but I think i’ll do it just for the fun of it.
