Wayne's trying to come up with the $300!
Wayne's trying to come up with the $300!
Oh, so they'll be using the same designer as the IFBB for their website then, huh? ;D
The IFBB paid $300 Canadian $.
That won't buy you a new pair of Jordans here in the US.
The Official Website is www.prodivisioninc.com it is on it way. He has made several changes. A major internet company is designing the site. If you have seen the IFBB site just about anything will be better.

Oh no, 240 is going to have a fit!
After all he's done for the PDI and Wayne personally (he should have swallowed and not spat)you'd think they'd at least give the kid a chance?
I'm sure 240, MBA is being retained as a consultant, at least.
I think there enough Master Bullshit Artists consulting with the PDI at the present time.
I am NOT a company man, by any means.
Why is that 240?
now I'm in my recliner 12 hours a day, busting ass to stay ahead of this line of websites in my box.
step eight: jerk off and cry alone in your shitty apartment.
I thought Bob Chic was the only one who does that. ???
some people say that they both do it . . . while fantasizing about each other. It's really a very touching story of attachment and devotion.
Why is that 240?
He can't get hired. The ink on his MBA smeared.
Did that Weider tattoo hurt?
Nowhere near as much as that anal raping you just recieved from MisterMagoo,
as much as that anal raping\
it's on the way.Isn't that like Cybersquatting? You hurry and register a domain name that you think will be wanted by the company that hasn't registered it yet and you toss up some trashy graphics and try to sell it for a profit. With the name, prodivisionbodybuilding. com, if they want it, it's theirs http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anticybersquatting_Consumer_Protection_Act
until then:
www.prodivisionbodybuild ing.com
Nope, I cleared it with my lawyer, actually. You don't think I only operate in the BBing arena, do you? I still have a vested interest, but it is no longer my property.So I can buy these websites from you like it says at the bottom?
You can't go 5 posts without returning to discussions of anal rape.
So I can buy these websites from you like it says at the bottom?
which site? I no longer manage the content on prodivisionbbing.comhttp://www.prodivisionbodybuilding.com/ says at the bottom to contact you, that's your e-mail isn't it?
First time I've mentioned it. Though it's not the first time you've suffered it :o
http://www.prodivisionbodybuilding.com/ says at the bottom to contact you, that's your e-mail isn't it?
yep. but i no longer own the site. it's easier to have me filter information, though. I have established some decent connections and it works better this way.Did the PDI guys buy it? I don't get it. It's for sale through you but you don't own it.
Did the PDI guys buy it?
but I can say that I maintain a solid professional relationship with Wayne. and wish both the PDI and IFBB guys success.
Can't talk about the party that made the purchase.So what really happened was it was cheaper to pay you 750 than take you to court so they took your bribe being it was small? I mean if you had a domain name registered with their registered trade name in it, then that's cybersquatting unless i'm not getting it. If PDI doesn't own it, they can come along and take it from whoever you sold it to.
but I can say that I maintain a solid professional relationship with Wayne. and wish both the PDI and IFBB guys success.
Yea, I agree. Problem tho is that a lot of people are duped into thinking they got a good deal. OR, they are duped into thinking they will get a good deal by a slick salesman.His pages are worth about 50 bucks and that's being nice.
I see it all the time and it frustrates me because I cringe when I hear stories about companies spending thousands on a p.o.s. website that they have to turn right around and get redone through a new web company.
You all rag on 240 because he charges $300-$400 a site and you think he puts out crap. Couple things:
--do some research and figure out pricing for websites
--you try and put something together better (do it on geocities and show us all)
--$300 = about 5 hours at $60 an hour, or 10 hours at $30/hour. Very modest hourly rate.
--his sites do not crash, are complete, are done in a very timely manner, and according to client specs
The others who are in the know, rag on him because he's taking their clients...and they're pissed. I don't care because I don't use GetBig or the BBing world as a source of clients (wpse & boom7 are hobbies, not real income)...so he's not stealing my clients...I'm the guy behind the scenes that the web companies come to when they can't figure something out.
make a website the 240 way.
step one: charge client $300.
step two: google for some templates. http://www.google.com/search?q=website+templates
step three: pick one of the links. lets say this one. http://www.hypertemplates.com/
step four: skim through the flash files for something nice. this one looks okay http://www.hypertemplates.com/templates/10559.html. so does this one http://www.hypertemplates.com/templates/10028.html
step five: buy template for $50 or so. cheaper if you look around some more.
step six: spend an hour or so making some shitty graphics and plunking them in the template, or just use the few thousand that come free with the templates.
step seven: remind yourself that your clients will think you're a wizard with the website, so they'll pay three dollars for you to update the site constantly. this helps you get your infrequent meals at mcdonalds, which explains how you're both fat and small.
step eight: jerk off and cry alone in your shitty apartment.
well, 240, MBA, we appreciate your making time to post here regularly. it makes our banal existence slightly more charmed. You are a veritable lily of the field.
Vicious brutality! 240 is married though.
Why do people care about if PDI has their website up yet. The IFBB's website has been up for many years and if you saw it you would email them and tell them to take it down. It is embarrassing for the organization that is supposed to be the biggest the best and god almighty to have a web presence like they do. I highly doubt I will get anyone to disagree with me on this fact.
So was Rock Hudson

Here's what I think is funny. If you didn't know what we were talking about and read 240's posts you would think he's the owner of a multi-million dollar corportion. He talks about this crap like it's big business.
i don't have clients for him to be taking away, nor do i give a shit that he's making websites for people. its the fact that he's charging $300 for a website that should cost $50 tops and take an hour to put together. a middle schooler could do what he does and he's acting like he's some big wheeler in the web design business. the graphics are either words made with some random font or a picture he whipped through a few filters, all put into a template anyone could find, buy, and use in a free afternoon.
i also wonder if the makers of these templates know you're charging money for clients to use them, robby. most of these companies have terms and conditions with a clause like "UNAUTHORIZED USE
You may not place any of our products, modified or unmodified, on a diskette, CD, website or any other medium and offer them for redistribution or resale of any kind without prior written consent from our company."
since its pretty obvious you aren't hardcoding these sites yourself, i sure hope you've gotten permission from all the companies first. provided you didn't get incredibly lazy and search for free templates, which would just be pathetic.
STFU you assholes >:(. No one else deserves to voice their opinion (every 2 secs) like our very own 240 - After all, its obvious the man spends as much time perfecting his websites as he does his physique ;D ;D ;D(http://www.getbig.com/boards/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=62725.0;attach=72514;image)
I do use some flash components for sites, and I have been learning actionscript to animate. I am very upfront about the options clients have- they can get an HTML site, or a flash/HTML combination site. In addition to the site, they also get features like member areas, online stores, SEO, marketing/promotions, photo galleries, training, and overall business competition/strategy assistance. All for a very sexy $300.
The bottom line is, I deliver a solid, complete website, at a terrific price and fast delivery time. And I'm busting my ass 12-14 hours a day to do it.
Also, your statement was incorrect. When I use any kind of package for resale to my clients, I have purchased the licenses for all products sold, and provide that documentation to my clients. With as many haters as I have, I just gotta follow the rules. If I do my job correctly, much of it *looks* like a template, when what you're really seeing is a series of integrated flash pieces to create a unique site viewing experience.
SEO? You sell site-enhancement oil? Are you a synthol dealer?
I have a very efficient design process,Speaking of that design process, you might attract more clients if you didn't spell it, “Grapihics deisgn" on your sites. I'm not a board grammer Nazi because things get posted in hast and mistakes made but those are your webpages man.
One more thing- As my sites are designed, there is a series of "back-and-forths" between the client and myself. Each site has probably 8 to 15 revisions, which takes days of back-and-forth as the site is developed to meet their creative vision. I have a very efficient design process, but I tell ya, I still work 7 days a week and I spend most of every day building sites and doing marketing. It's hard work, honestly.
