Hiya Folks.
It's been some time since we updated the DerbyKS.net site. As it is no longer the Prairieland Food, Derby KS site it was decided to make it simply a public service site to make the announcement about Buddy Website Design (in cooperation with BEK, Brown Enterprises of KS) giving away free website builds for non-profits.
It's hard to get this message out sometimes. Most churchs and non-profits don't realize there is an opportunity like this one out there. YES, we give away a website build to non-profits in our area, which is anywhere in Kansas, but also includes the whole USA!
More than anything else, it's hard for non-profits to come up with the budget to advertise on the internet. It's one of the things we do to help with volunteer hours for our participation in the Prairie Land Food Program.
Having a GOOD website means more exposure for your organization, but only if it's done with SEO in mind. SEO is included in the free website build. If you know of an organization that needs a website, that is strapped for funds - send them our way. We could use the volunteer hours, which helps the community, but also helps us help build the Prairie Land Food Program.
Have a dandy day in Derby and the USA!

What does a webmaster do?
Greeting to the Bloggy-sphere.
A good starter question eh? I know what I do as a webmaster but am a little hazy on what others consider webmaster duties.
Yes, web site hosting; web site development; and web site design all come up front but then what? Content is king is, and always has been a viable part of being a webmaster. Web sites should be updated once every week. Some updates are required to keep content fresh and some updates are required to stay organized for the general good of the web site in question. Plus, search engines just love to come back and eat fresh content. Updating content does not mean changing all the text once a week. It is much more than that. Analyzing stats and overall search engine positioning is part of what I do for my clients.
It has come to my attention in the past few years that all webmasters are not made alike and many have no clue how to be a webmaster. Slapping up a web site and calling yourself a webmaster uh, just doesn't cut it.
With the inception of this blog, I will be talking about webmastering as a real job, an art, and a viable place to learn to hang your hat and be able to say:
I am a real webmaster!
Wish me luck, throw in your .02 and let's get down to the nitty gritty.
Your webmaster Buddy, over and out.
