All aspects of running a website that includes product search for cycling and outdoor gear. Due to reduced traffic from Google algorithm changes and lack of time, I haven't maintained the site the last several years. In November 2010 there were over 140,000 unique visitors and 220,000 page views. The gear search uses datafeeds from over 80 online merchants. There are over 250,000 product entries in the datafeeds. I've used this website to do search engine optimization experiments.

Initial website setup for the Friends of Ute Valley Park and ongoing site maintenance.
