Key Lessons
Statistics are followed on the website and the process is shaped according to the most visited places.
One of the difficulties encountered is that all kinds of content production of the website, sharing made, and obtaining statistics are the responsibility of a single person.

Recommendations(if the practice is to be replicated)
We can advise whom wants to establish such a website that a team should be created to control the website.
Innovation
The website is being redesigned to meet the needs instantly with the developing technology.
It is a process that has been going on for about 6 years and has proven to be sustainable in this respect. It is possible to scale by following the events and the content to be produced.
It has been observed that access to the website has increased with the continuation of education at home and the closure of schools. This shows that Covid-19 has had no negative effects.
As for another initiative, a mobile application could be developed.
