Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

DBWebCreation appears to be a small, long-running freelance web design and hosting service rather than a scalable technology product. The submission contains significantly hyperbolic and inaccurate claims, such as stating 'most people have used my product' and describing the audience as 'everyone'. The use of the term 'marketcap' likely refers to lifetime revenue, which averages to a modest amount over 18 years. The listed technologies (VB6, COBOL) and 'Internet' indicate a dated stack and low-effort submission. This project scores low due to lack of verifiable scale, unrealistic traction claims, and the service-based nature of the business versus a product utility model.

Project Details

Description
Welcome to DB Web Creations. My name is David Brodzenski the owner and webmaster of DB Web Creations. I provide full-service web hosting and design services. I live in Santa Rosa Beach, Florida, and have been designing and implementing websites for over ten years. You can see some of the commercial sites I've done in my Portfolio. http://www.dbwebcreation.com/portfolio.html I am well-versed in computers and programming languages. I hold an Associate of Science degree and Bachelor of Science degree in Computer Science from Troy University. I've studied and used HTML 5, CSS 3, C/C++/C#, Visual Basic 6, Visual Basic .NET (ASP.NET), Java 8, RSS, XML, JSON, DMQL, and COBOL. I've also studied database design and make extensive use of the SQL language and Microsoft SQL Server. My main focus in programming has been real estate technology. As a result, I'm also very familiar with the Real Estate Transaction Standard (RETS) and the Internet Data Exchange (IDX), having implemented several custom IDX solutions. I closely follow search engine optimization (SEO) and social media trends, and strongly encorage site owners to integrate their websites with social media platforms including Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Instagram, Blogger, and ActiveRain. My site design philosophy is simple: a well-designed, color-coordinated site functions much better and holds more visitors than something flashy with all the latest bells and whistles. Too much scripting or graphics or Flash can bog down a site's loading time, driving away impatient visitors who want what they want NOW. These elements are enormously helpful, but only in moderation. In the constantly evolving space of the World Wide Web, the classic, low-key website design remains the most accessible and most compatible across the wide and varied ecosystem of PCs, mobile devices, smart phones, tablets, and IoT-enabled devices.
