Project Summary

GLOBALDEV (formerly Steelkiwi) designed and developed a WordPress-based sports news aggregator and publishing platform, building the graphic design, database, architecture, subscription system and a prediction/points module. The vendor also installed and configured necessary plugins (e.g., SportsPress) and has continued to provide updates and maintenance. Since launch, the site has grown to about 120,000 unique visitors per month; the vendor optimized code after an early server resource issue and has helped keep downtime minimal.
