   • Enabled users to filter events by sport, date, and location.
5. Community features:
   • Added a comments section and discussion forums for user interaction.
   • Integrated social media sharing and liking functionalities.
6. Live streams and multimedia:
   • Incorporated live streaming of sports events and a video section with behind-the-scenes content.
   • Developed a multimedia gallery with advanced content management tools.
7. SEO optimization:

   • Created a KPI dashboard to monitor key metrics, including unique visitors, session duration, and bounce rate.
