Already have a Web Host and a disc golf website, but have a question on design or troubleshooting?

Email Me With Your Question

Now that you have a Web Host you can design the site yourself or have someone else do it. If you do it yourself I suggest using one of these free yet powerful software packages to get you started:

Joomla (download)

Wordpress (download)

Drupal (download)

Kompozer (download)

You may want to start with Kompzer or your Web Host’s DIY website creator if you have never made a website before.

Now you have a website what do you put on it?

I would start with the basics and inform your public. Post this kind of info:

League times

Disc golf course locations (Try Google Maps!!)

Club and membership info

Upcoming tournaments

Upcoming events

News

Later on your disc golf club can branch out into more advanced website features:

Discussion Board

eCommerce

Online tournament registration

Google ads

So you see, you can use a website to get new disc golf club members, inform your current members, raise money, raise awareness, and show everyone where the disc golf course is.
