Reliance, IncC#, VB.net, asp.net, SQL Developer
May 2010- February 2011
Hands on ASP.net (vb.net, c#) / SQL Developer Projects:
Primary role at Reliance, Inc. consisted of overseeing all aspects of the company’s technical
infrastructure, requirements, strategy and corporate vision.
Architected, developed, managed and upgraded our internal CMS (relbo.net “reliance back office
network”).
Built on vb.net and MS SQL 2000.
The original developers of the system did not release the source back to the company, they were looking
for several changes to be made which required the system to be decompiled and rebuilt, this was
successfully accomplished over a 3 month period of time.
Developed, implemented and managed an SEO and social networking campaign that increased traffic to
the site by over 1000%. Initial organic traffic patterns prior to this had been in the 10-15 visitor per day
range, by mid December 2010 traffic to the site had increased to roughly 150-200 visitors per day
and unique page views to 250-300 per day up from 20-30. Re-lianceinc.com.
Rebuilt the entire website in .net to allow for ease of modification, growth as the corporate vision
required. In addition a forum and blog have been implemented to increase organic traffic, search
engine trust, leads and open the company up to cross conversation with prospects and existing
clientele.
