Pulitzer, Inc.

Pulitzer Inc. is one of the major newspaper chains in the country. I worked for Pulitzer in 2000-2001 as the Web Services Manager, Sr. Outside of work time, I was asked by the corporate vice-president of Pulitzer, Inc. to create the Corporate Intranet newspaper site and the Pulitzer, Inc. corporate site. The West Coast Pulitzer Newspaper, Inc. vice-president asked me to create and redesign the Pulitzer Central Coast Newspaper Websites which included The Santa Maria Times, The Lompoc Record, The Times Press Recorder and the Nipomo Adobe Press. I completed the following websites in December 2001. After the redesign of the Lompoc Record, their page views increased from 60,000 to near 150,000 and continues to grow.

I also created the following sites for Pulitzer while I was employed for them. The goal was to create a Website for their Central California papers. Their daily circulation for their paper is around 13,000 and it was expected that the online version for the papers would receive around 40,000 page views. After completion of the sites in January 8, 2001 which I called the "newzcentral network", the average page views for newzcentral was 140,000-160,000 page views which far exceeded the corporate and anyone's expectations. I was commended by the vice-president of the corporation for the planning and creation of the site and led to me taking a proactive role in the creation of the sites above. Over 300 sites were created for the newzcentral network and around 80 comp logos were created. It was a massive project all created and managed by one person.

Pulitzer Central California Newspaper Websites include: newzcentral, The Hanford Sentinel, The Selma Enterprise, The Kingsburg Recorder, The Lemoore Advance, The Coalinga Record, The Avenal Progress, The Twin City Times and Riverdale Free Press, The Golden Eagle and the community portal, eCommunitiez.
