As with everything for this project, the website was put together quickly, gets the job done, and leaves much to be desired. It works and it costs nothing to run. I already owned the domain and google sites is free. Unfortunately, it looks like crap. However, google sites is very easy for us to use. Some design improvements could definitely be made.

The ugr site gets around 2000-6000 page views per day, and the load is handled very well. I do have a webserver on my VPS, but the VPS is very flaky and slow.

As for a domain, someone proposed ugr-linux.org in a different bug, which seems good. ugr.org is being sold for $8,800, which is way beyond our means. ugr.com is unavailable.

I'm open to any suggestions or anyone willing to develop something. The website has to look professional and not take tons of time and effort to update.
