Middlesbrough FC fansite launched
Van Zant Design were recently used to design, launch and manage a Middlesbrough Football Club fansite called Boro Mania. The site is set up to allow the editor and contributors to easily publish news stories and articles and also to allow site visitors the opportunity to comment on each story. To acheive the desired goals we utilised the power of Wordpress, which is usually a blogging platform, with a few modifications to give a “magazine” style theme.
We have also recently began some Search Engine Optimisation on the site and have managed to get it onto the first page of Google for the search term “middlesbrough football” (it is currently, 13/10/08, fluctuating from 4th positon overall to the top of the 2nd page but it will settle down eventually as we continue to promote it.)
The site is only 3 months old and is already getting 10,000+ visitors per month and with Van Zant Design continually working on improving the site it’s rankings will go from strength to strength.
