When I heard the club was exploring a new website, I built one rather than pitch for it. It is live right now, and it is the club's to use. My proposal is simple: I build and host the site, and in exchange, a golf membership for me.
The Met sits in the heart of Cape Town with views few clubs in the world can match. The current website does not yet tell that story: it is slow, dated on mobile, and bookings are scattered across separate systems. I rebuilt it around the three goals in the club's note: modern and mobile-first, supporting visitor bookings, and lifting the club's presence online.
The club's own course footage front and centre, with Table Mountain, the city and the Atlantic doing the talking from the first second.
The GreenFee365 tee sheet embedded directly in the site, so visitors check availability and book in seconds without leaving the page.
Course, green fees, membership, events, clubhouse, history, gallery and contact, all flawless on a phone where most golfers will find you.
Update green fees, swap the hero video, add events or photos through a simple admin, no developer needed.
Built for speed and search, with clean structure and proper meta so the Met ranks and loads the way a premium club should.
From 1895 to the Mark Muller redesign, the club's story is woven through the site to turn first-time visitors into members.
Open it on your phone. Play the hero, browse the course, check the green fees, open the live booking.
No agency pitch, and no fee. I build the club a complete website and host it, kept maintained, secure and running. In exchange, a single golf membership for me.
The full site you can see live now, hosted, maintained, kept secure and kept running, at no cost to the club. I handle everything behind the scenes.
A single golf membership at the Met, for me. That is the only thing I am asking for in return.
That is the whole arrangement. No fee, no catch.
Building and hosting fast, modern websites is my work, through my Cape Town studio, Lumanaire. So this is not a weekend favour that breaks in a month. It is a real, maintained site, built and kept running to a professional standard.
Browse the live site, share it with the committee, and tell me what you would change.
I adjust copy, drop in any club photography or video you would like, and connect the booking exactly how you want it.
I point metropolitangolfclub.co.za at the new site and look after it from there. No cost to the club.
