Riku Soininen’s International Soccer Server and Arjen Robijn’s SoccerWay teamed up in October to form a new large soccer website at http://www.soccerway.com. After a decade of learning by doing and following each others work both site managers decided it was time to join forces and combine all the good parts of the sites in the new Soccerway.
The new SoccerWay brings the latest news and a huge soccer results database, covering over 80 competitions and 50 cups. Unique features for most leagues are: archive (upto 10 years back), team comparision (all results between Man.Utd and Arsenal) and various league tables (home/away/form/wide).
Other sections on the website include entertainment & links.
In order to make the new SoccerWay as succesful as possible, the active readers of the sites were asked to join a usability-testing group. The site-management was pretty flattered to see people like Australian Jim Janush saying ‘The site is the best, most detailed one available on this planet!’ or hearing Jose Farropas comments from Portugal: ‘I like the navigation mode, it is very intuitive and straightforward’.
