NovelRank.com

After a few months of work and over 150 hours, I’ve completed a new personal website called NovelRank. The purpose? For authors to track their Amazon Sales Rank and the number of books sold.

The site was built off of an open source web-design base and then improved and adapted to the needs of the client: Me, in this case. While it uses the very popular jQuery library for some fancy web 2.0 interactions, the entire site is built off of PHP from the ground up. This build included a lot of unique work that is designed for unknown visitors to add content as well as get back results in familiar formats, include RSS Feeds, website widgets, and CSV spreadsheet downloads. This is greatly different from LRECO because the users interacting with the website were all employees updating content such as apartment information, images, and cities.
Work will continue on NovelRank with more features coming online in the future. Who knows what website will be next; Maybe yours!
