Business Name: Kappapialumni.org
Platform: PHP, MySQL, Javascript
Business Model: This website was built for a local fraternity that required a site with many features. First, they wanted it to be very secure since the nature of fraternity is keeping things secure. Second, they needed user groups, one for actual brothers of the house, another for the alumni brothers, and finally a log in for guests. Finally, each user group then needed to be able to access their specific set of content. For example, the guest can not see what an alumni sees of course.
Now each brother can log in and the platform recognizes their permission role. They can now update and contribute to internal forums, and each brother (user) also has their own personal blog. Other brothers or users can comment on other forum/blog posts, or comment on the reply to forum/blog posts. It has a user directory to allow everyone to stay in touch and easy ways to accept donations through Pay Pal and connect with other social outlets like facebook and twitter. Basically they now enjoy a dynamic social website that grows and updates as the fraternity does.
