Launch Date for DiveSports.com is Scheduled!
January 20, 2008 8:02 am General CommentaryWell, I have spent the last couple of hours taking a look at the new site, and I can’t find anything left that I can do today. With just a little more product work left, I think this thing is almost ready to go! Next week, all we need to do is run one more item price check, add some brand new items that we will feature as sale items for the launch, and take a few more photographs. Our home page on the new site will also feature about ten special items; special products that can really save you some money while catching your attention for innovation and uniqueness. We have to get those ready and then we are finished.
We will officially launch the new site on Wednesday morning, January 30, 2008. We plan to make the DNS name change late in the day of Monday, January 28, so some of you will see it a day early. It will take a day or so for the web server pointer to completely switch over, but EVERYONE will see the new site on the morning of the launch date.
Dive Sports is still just a little scuba store in Decatur, Alabama, so this new website is a big deal to us. Certainly, these changes would be just a chip shot for the big boys, but it remains a big accomplishment for us. I can’t wait for all of you to see it. I think you will be impressed.
