Hello, my name is, Usang. I am a part time web developer who loves using my skills to create a better world around me. I recently developed a webscript which i think will be useful to any higher institution of learning that will need an online presence.
.
While developing this project withe powerful CodeIgniter PHP framework, i took my time to add the features a typical higher institution website will need. Some of the features of the script in this beta version are:
.
1. Roles: create unlimited roles easily and and assign staff to a specific role.
.
2. Staff: add and edit staff profile easily from the admin.
.
3. News: publish and manage news items from the admin. This is a wonderful feature for informing visitors and students about school activities.
.
4. Pages: create unlimited pages like "about us" , "our history", etc.
.
5. Feedback: this feature enables the admin to receive feedbacks from visitors of the school portal.
.
6. Posts: add extra information that are not appropriate for pages with posts.

Your contact details please. I would like to discuss a remote role with you. Thanks.

Your contact details please. Thanks.

I am a Web developer and Seo specialist so let me indulge you a little.

You install the software / you pay OP to get you the traffic of exactly 10k visitors.

You think OP works with Google? No he doesn't. In fact he has no idea how Seo works (He's just a slick snake oil salesman). No offence OP.

So he sets this software that sends ready-made "bots" (robots) to your site. Mind you, you are on cheap hosting and your bandwidth can't handle that much traffic suddenly.

You get the massive visits, it spends 2-3 seconds and bounces off. Bounce rate goes up. Bandwidth depleted.

Remember, these bots can see your email sign form, nor do they read your content. Even if they click your ads, Google is not stupid. They can detect "unrealistic" and "magical" traffic.

In a few days you have used up your monthly quota, meaning your site would be down for the rest of the month. Worst case scenario - you get a call from your hosting company warning you of your despicable act.

Your site loses Google ranking in the end and its offline most of the time.

No one can find you on Google search because you didn't even do SEO in the first place.

You get frustrated, you curse OP, you shut down your site. End of story.

Moral: There are no shortcuts to success.

This is 2018. Be guided.

I build steady traffic for blogs and websites through ethical SEO practices. If you feel you need webmaster services by the hour or monthly retainer, do not hesitate to contact me.

Regards.
