An SEO tip for Optimist Clubs

This is not a negative post.  I am not hater of sports and I understand that some Optimist Clubs are more actively involved in sports programs than others.  From an awareness standpoint I would like to point out that Optimist Clubs generally provide more than sports for their communities and the children that participate in the sports programs.  So if the home page of your Optimist Club website looks like this one, please rethink your design.  Use your home page to promote your club, your purposes and what unifies 3,000 Optimist Clubs around the world: With hope and positive vision, Optimist Club members bring out the best in children.  

Then create a blog, or a number of blogs, to promote each activity like this fabulous soccer program coordinated by the Winston-Salem Optimist Club and link them back to your website.  Your home page defines your club.  Do you like what it is saying?
