<p>I created this site faster than any other site I have created before.  The owner of this site called me up with an idea for a website that would allow him to review popular tactical equipment and provide unbiased opinions on the gear.  We tossed around some names for the site and some layout ideas while we talked.I got to work on the site by finding a domain name for him, hosting the site, and creating the site.  I called him back 15 minutes later and asked him to go to the new web address and asked him how he liked his site.  Yes, it really was that quick.</p>
<p>This site really allows him to adjust the hierarchy of gear reviews and allows fully functional user support.  Users can subscribe to his reviews, log in to the site to comment on the reviews, and even vote on each post!</p>

<p>This site replaced a cut and paste template site for a custom firearms manufacturer.  His previous site was simply a template site that someone cut and pasted some of his images into and it looked it.He wanted a much more clean and professional looking site with a working photo gallery.  The site allows the gunsmith to show weapons for sale and deal directly with the customer without an automated system.   Random images rotate on every page and the site includes a dynamic contact page for potential customers.<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.spuweapons.com" target="_blank">Check out SPU Weapons HERE. </a></p>

This is the first site I put together.  This site has gone through a lot of growth and an awful lot of change!  It started out as a simple static page allowing my students to download their course information and it has grown into a dynamic interactive forum.GoTakeAHike.com allows its members to interact and communicate through a live forum as the main focal point of the site.  Members can learn from others, teach others, plan trips with others, and share their trip details and stories with others.  Needing to grow the community, I added a live chat room to the site to allow members to communicate in real time.  In order to facilitate sharing adventures of the site&#8217;s members, I added a full functioning photo gallery that is completely embedded within the site so that members are able to seamlessly transition from one section of the site to the other while staying signed in.</p>
<p>In order to help promote the site, I added an e-commerce store as a sub-domain of the site and added a trail database as its own subdomain too.  I created the trail database off of wordpress and integrated it into the site to allow easy indexing, rating, and commenting.</p>
<p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://gotakeahike.com" target="_blank">Check out the site, I am sure you will appreciate the ability to integrate so many features into one community oriented site.</a></p>

I put this site together for the outdoor radio show host, Jim Solomon.</p>
<p>Jim needed a site to describe his show&#8217;s content and schedule to listeners and sponsors alike.  The site is set up to automatically display the most recent information concerning his show such as the next week&#8217;s schedule.</p>
<p>As with many sites I make for customers, this website allows Jim to update and run his site easily with little to no training.  If you can fill out and send an email, you can update your own site!</p>
<p>With this site&#8217;s multiple pages, categories, and archived posts, google has indexed 322 pages of this site.  <a title="Xplor the Outdoors" href="http://xplortheoutdoors.com" target="_blank">Check out this searchable database and information site about Jim&#8217;s show and see if its format is right for you. </a></p>

This site was built as a sister site to <a href="http://www.ryancleckner.com/xplor-the-outdoors/">Xplor The Outdoors.com</a>.  The host for the radio show represented by the main site helped organize a network of states that wanted to share and report wildlife poacher information.</p>
<p>At the owner&#8217;s request, I created this very simple and streamlined site for this purpose.  Since I offered to create the site for free, I used free prepackaged software and completed the project in only a couple of hours.  Security to keep unwanted people from posting messages and ease of use for the reporting game and fish agencies were top priorities.</p>
<p>The front page of the site shows the most recent reports to keep the casual reader up to date of the most current events.  <a rel="nofollow" href="http://poacherchronicles.com" target="_blank">Check out this interactive poacher reporting site.</a></p>
