Zillow is a platform that allows you to monitor property values as well as property for purchase.
Zillow has an app along with a full functioning website. This is more useful than other platforms cause it seems to have more accurate and up to date information. Zillow has developed a good layout for how they have there maps set up. There map allows you to break down many factors when it comes to looking at properties and areas. Another bonus to this platform is that its multi facetted and can be used for buyers, seller, and investors. I keep coming back to this site because it has helped me with the process of moving multiple times. One things that I feel like they could change is there URL copy as you can see its extremely long.


2) Draft Kings

https://www.draftkings.com

Draft Kings is a gambling website that allows you to specifically bet money on fantasy sports. Fantasy sports are where you choose a team of individual professional players and your team acquires points based on the players performance per game. It is the best site to gamble on weekly fantasy sports because of how easy it is to navigate. It gives thorough instructions on how to pick your team, how much your money entry is and the payout you receive depending on what you place. Another aspect that makes it intriguing is that you can choose to play anybody from a single friend to thousands of random players around the world in every betting pool. One of the reasons it is effective is because unfortunately, it can be very addictive and exciting to people with addicting personalities. It also is effective because it is informative and gives you endless information about how well players in all sports perform. The only thing I would change is how when you are involved in a game or pool, the real time stats aren't always updated frequently and it can be confusing to understand how many points you have or what your place is in the pool.

Week1A: Template Theme

For as long as I can remember I have been a very indecisive individual. I have always liked things in a very particular way and to no surprise this situation was no different.  To be honest with you all, the last word that anybody would describe me as is tech-savvy, which is hard for me to admit considering I have grown up in a society completely immersed in technology. So as you can imagine, trying to navigate a website I've never heard of to try and create a blog (something I never thought I'd do) was far from a relaxing process.    I get easily overwhelmed with too many choices and with something that I'll be using for an extended period of time, who could blame me for being picky. I'm not going to lie and say that most of that time I spent on here wasn't wasted on trying to figure out how to navigate this site, cause it was. I had been going back and forth on a theme for almost an hour prior to narrowing in on this one. I really wanted something that wasn&

Week 17: My Final Blog Post!

            Although I do not own my own business, this class has taught me invaluable information on how I can market, promote and advertise for a future company should I try and create one. I never knew how many different apps and tools there were to help improve a business and make sure it is reaching further and further into the Internet. I have enjoyed experimenting and learning how to use so many different ones, in addition to just having knowledge of how company’s work and what they do to advertise to me as a consumer. Finally, this class has taught me the importance of consistently creating content across multiple platforms in order to keep a store in business. This class was one of my favorites during this semester.             Before taking this class, I was not aware of the different uses of social media. I had my own profiles on some of these platforms like Facebook and Instagram but I never posted anything and mostly just used the to look around when I w

Week 14: Developing Online Advertising

Image
      This is an example of ads I would use for my social media accounts for Cousha Coffee. I feel that these would be effective because although they are basic in nature, they let new customers know about my store and how and where they can visit. In addition, when it comes to advertising for your store there is usually an objective that guides it. This can range from any kind of call to action or it can be used to update, to influence or to remind customers about your store and products. When it comes to these objectives, I think it would be most useful to inform customers about my products and what my business is all about because it is brand new and people know nothing about it. I think I could use multiple objectives for my business as it grows and gains popularity. An example of this would using an advertising campaign to influence customers that visit other coffee shops and explain to them why mine is a product they should try as well. I also would use my ads to
