After months and months of coding I’ve finally managed to get Musecast.co.uk to launch. The site is pretty intense after we started putting in real content into the site. I’ve already received some feedback on the site and I’ve started up google analytics on the site to track the outcome.
Pre launching the site was quite a painful experience, it included some MORE bug fixes (this time, loads more popped up!) as well as some quick features added onto the thing (such as a navigation bar for news and podcast so you can move to the next and previous podcast / news so news searching is easier). The tags in particular seems to work really well. It does provide an easier way of organising and finding information based on keywords.
After all the bug fixes I had to export the database and import it into my client’s hosting server. After that, a few site configurations and the site was up and ready. I’m quite proud at the overall outcome of the product. Theres quite alot of features which greatly increases the chance of a user reading more pages within the site, theres also a great potential of using digg, reddit and delicious to further increase the exposure of the site to potential visitors.
Now we play the waiting game (not really, I need to write the project now haha).
