After a request from a cean to share story of a1tolet.com

So here it is

I ,still remember the days of my training, when we were forced to change our PG 3rd time because of some problems like robbery cases, so one day me and my friends were roaming in the street of Mohali .We were so much tired after walking for around 25 km in search of pg that can satisfy our needs ,it was around 4.00 PM when we were taking tea in the road side dhaba,suddenly the idea struckinto my mind of developing some online solution for this problem .At that time my friends said that there are already so many websites available like pgspace.com,bharatrentals.com for this,so i thought why we are roaming here and there ,instead we should search on internet, immediately i stand up and return back to my pg and turn on lapppy .I searched a lot on internet ,there were so many website available ,but to my goodness none of them was able to satisfy my needs ,some of them were paid and some of them provides old data .

So i thought i will develop this website and will make it a little bit unique from all by providing some features that are provided by none of the websites ,then from the very next day i started working on this website.

One day i was working on this website during my free time ,suddenly my company project manager come to me .He noticed this and asked me about it and I told him the whole concept and he was impressed and was ready to sponsor this project then it took 2 months for me to complete this project and on last week of November ,it was launched


In My next post ,i will tell you about software development life cycle

    i have two suggestions

    1. inclusion of photographs for the accomodation so that people know where they would live or for them to set expectations right
    2. removing stale entries

    rest all, the site looks professional 😀
