Why Add Live Scoreboards to Your Website?

Keep Your Audience Coming Back

Static content gets stale quickly. When you embed a live scoreboard, you give visitors a reason to return regularly to check updated standings, progress, or rankings. This dynamic content naturally increases engagement and repeat visits.

Save Time with Automatic Updates

Forget about manually updating HTML tables or uploading new images every time scores change. Once you embed our widget, it automatically reflects any changes you make in the admin panel. Update scores once, and they're instantly visible everywhere.

Stand Out from Static Competitors

While others display outdated PDFs or static tables, your embedded scoreboards show real-time information with smooth animations and professional styling. It's the difference between a printed poster and a live TV broadcast.

Works Seamlessly with Your Existing Site

Our embeds are designed to integrate smoothly with any website platform:

  • WordPress sites
  • Wix pages
  • Squarespace designs
  • Custom HTML sites
  • And many more
