Re: Web Designs

We use Bootstrap on our website and integrate a lot of HTML5 video and stuff. It looks great and sizes across all devices.

We probably should use a content management system like Wordpress but integrating it at this point would take a lot of time. Building your own site often looks better, in any case.

My suggestion would be to get your layout down and make it easy for you to go and add more content when you need. Our team, for example, decided against having a blog because it was just another thing to update often on top of our 4 or so social media outlets.

Building off that; keep your website up to date! I can't tell you how often I look at other teams' sites and they're a year or more (come ooooon) out of date.

When people want to find out information, what do they do nowadays? They Google it! Your website will likely be the face of your team, give it the attention it needs.

Our site is here.
