The New SurfGrandHaven.com
The word is out the new SurfGrandHaven.com just changed over from the old system and in with the new, which is surly going to change the way people use to look at this website. Many new upgrades and content that is going to make everyone search SurfGrandHaven.com
The Grand Haven area has getting something new in the works. For years, www.surfgrandhaven.com has been at the fore front of all the Grand Haven websites, but now Surf Grand Haven (SGH) is stepping up and bringing a new concept to the area that is a much needed change.
The new concept has been under development for the past year, because Will Beaton contacted Shape Web Designs, located in Grand Haven, to change over to a new server service. With this in mind, Robert Woonacott and Will Beaton started collaborating on a possible new concept that would bring more information to the area, giving tourists and even local residents a one stop website for information that is proven to work. The website will be implementing local listings for various businesses and services in the area. During the construction of the website, Robert wanted to bring more information of the area to people. He had been trying to come up with a solution for a long time, and coming on board with SGH was exactly the opportunity he was searching for.
“Our main goal here is to really give back to the community” said Woonacott and Beaton. The new SGH is going to be a challenge, but they are now relying on volunteers to help put this project together. It is easy to see that there is going to be nothing stopping these guys.
The new SGH is going to have everything this town needs to help people find what they are looking for all in one place. This new News Publishing System (NPS) is state of the art, having a search engine buddy, which means that local business can get noticed faster in the area. However, Robert is not ready to reveal his secret just yet. He has a lot of listings to put into the site still, which will build the sites reputation for having the best Grand Haven listings on the web. Anyone will be able to come to the website and find what they are looking for, including all local businesses and services, and this is will be very important for the area.
Anyone can be an active member on this website and make comments; even local businesses can get people to comment and review their business on the site. All visitors to Grand Haven will find this site useful and refer to it to keep up to date on what is going on around town. Their biggest attraction to the site will be the summer rental and cottage rentals listings. It will make listing rental properties and prices easy for landlords and easy for renters to find what available during the summer to fit their budget. “It really isn’t about the money it is again about giving back to the community” says Robert. They are going to even offer the local businesses in the area an opportunity to submit coupons that will surely attract both local and tourists. “Why not?” Robert says, “isn’t that a part of giving back to the community?”
What can visitors expect from the new SGH? It isn’t going to be hard to see the benefits of a website that has it all, because finding what you need in town should be easy. Being able to hit one site to see people’s votes and comments on their opinion of local businesses and services is going to make a huge difference. What we are doing is offering local businesses a cheaper way to advertise their business online and while all along keeping the public informed what who they are and what their services or products are. This website is the gateway to many more things to come in the future and it will become popular for the area by providing the information people are looking for.
This website will keep all the advertising local, helping out the smaller business man, and give visitors a place to find out about what is going on around the area. As it sits right now SGH generates so much attention from the webcam, we are looking into fully updating the system in the new age of HD (High Definition). We just want to give the community and the town of Grand Haven something to be proud of.

...keep up the great 'work'...it's easy to see that when you enjoy your work, it's really 'fun'...
I enjoy the surfin life and to be able to continue it in Michigan after leaving in 1987 to join the military and ultimately become a spnsored surfer/snowboarder amongst many other pages to my book, I am never that amazed when I find followers of our life doing what they do ANYWHERE they can. I say that because we have something special for "THE SEARCH" and that reflects in our everyday choices. Not only in play, but also in professional aspects.
Thanks for even offering such a site! The fact that I CAN look around here for ANY information is worth me tipping my hat to ANY EFFORTS you offer to us!
Thanks and keep up the good work. No matter the complaints, YOU are doing what you think is good for the cause and THAT is your dream. Arm chair quarterbacks will always have something negative to add...while waiting in the wings for OTHERS to accomplish what may never be there for THEM! AT LEAST YOU DO IT!
And by the way, secret surf spots are only as good as those who enjoy them. WHAT is the reason for waves to go unridden, IF we have no stoke to share!? A hoot falls on deaf ears when you dont have a life worth sharing!
