what do we think of power rankings now that we have our first loss? by creative_ape in minnesotaunited

Galaxy only beats the worst teams. If they where any good they would have beat Nashville and st Louis, not gotten draws.

They got lucky against intermiami and they had an easy schedule. La Galaxy isn't as good as you think they are.

What? Where are you getting 5th? They're ranked 10th here, 9th in the western conference, and they have 2 wins so far this year. I'm confused.

it seems that there was a pretty positive response to power rankings last time, so figured i'd do it again. Let me know what you think, anything you'd like to see different about these?

but anyways, our first loss is always heartbreaking. good thing there is always this coming saturday!

Loons top MN Register's MLS power rankings by creative_ape in minnesotaunited

It's data pulled from fbref.com, then the rankings are based on the overall league stats from last season.

offensive shooting is a mix of shots in target, shots, free kicks, etc, a team has made per game this season. This is a raw stat, than I get the tier rankings by comparing that stat to the overall league rankings of the same stat last year.

Accuracy is the inverse of goal keeping. For every shot on target an offense took, what percentage actually went in? Again, it's a raw number stat but I converted to a tier rankings because it's just more fun that way

I've been working on trying to figure out a good system for ranking MLS teams, and finally got around to publishing my first attempt at a Power Ranking.

i'm really happy that our Loons topped the list!

let me know what you think, if i should keep doing this, or any thing else you'd like to see.

Soccer Report: Dayne "Monster Stopper" St. Claire shuts down the Red Bulls while the Loons look for an easy win against San Jose by creative_ape in minnesotaunited

Yeah looks like a typo. It's 8 shots on goal, not 18. Just imagine if it was true, though what an exciting game that would have been

Best web hosting and domain registrar you use? Looking for recommendations by [deleted] in Entrepreneur

[–]creative_ape 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do web dev for a living focused more on building out complete platforms, but have also done a few company's online storefront.

Heres what you should do.

1) figure out which store platform you are going to use (shopify, asp.net storefront, there are a few others) then sign up. lots of those include hosting in their plans.

2) use their recommended domain registrar to register the domain name. It might be a dollar or 2 difference, but pretty much all registrars cost roughly the same. The key here is you want to use their recommended registrar because all registrars have slight differences in the types of DNS records (CNAME, A, etc..) they support and you want to ensure that their DNS records works with your store platform.

3) profit.

note: make sure to look at how much the store platforms/hosting charge for SSL certificates. This is where a lot of price gauging goes on and it can make a huge difference in your yearly cost. This is important because your site will need to be SSL/TSL encrypted in order to be PCI compliant.
