History
How it all Started:
The first website of Julijo Pisk was set off be four young men namely Jhouel Patrick Espanola, Darcy Arnie Mirasol, Mark Lester Valdellon and Dominic Heath. It all started when Jhouel, thought to build a website for Julijo Pisk during the Star Circle Summer Kid Quest in 2006. But the website project was not accomplished immediately because his programmer, Dom, got problems when the storm hit their area. And so, the files necessary for site building were affected. The plan for building the webpage got pending until the December of the same year.
During this time, another website was created by Darcy and was named “Piskers’ Rendezvous” which became the tambayan ng mga tagasuporta ni Julijo Pisk. This site was created out of template-based site of Freewebs.
Prior to the declaration as the Official website on January 10, 2007, the Rendezvous became the update center of Julijo Pisk from then on, giving the latest on fashion shows and upcoming projects of the month. These updates include the guesting of Pisk to ABS-CBN’s John En Shirley and the fashion shows on January of 2007. Tambayan also posts pictures of the month and the videos courtesy of Mr. John Tingson, talent manager of Pisk, on Youtube and the advertisement videos of BPI Family and the Colgate commercial.
In the hope to develop the website, the Julijo Pisk Online was created by Dom and Jhouel later in March 2007, and so the title Official Website and the contents of Rendezvous were transferred to the “new home”. In addition to this, the website Pisker’s Rendezvous was shut off in order to prevent confusion.
Aside from the project which was established by Jhouel, Dom, Darcy and Lester, there was another website which became part of the history. Way up north, Marc Alvin Prado, who by then a college student from Baguio, created a website featuring Mika Dela Cruz and Julijo Pisk in February 2007. Initially, his objective was to simply finish his school requirement, a webpage project for his computer subject. But his plans were changed when a huge traffic hit his page. Lester, offered Marc a hand which made the site content better. The site was known as Mikijo, the mixture of Mika’s and Julijo’s names.
In the long run, Julijo Pisk Online decided to hand in its operation to Mikijo. The two websites merged out and became a single and reinforced official website known as Julijo Pisk-The Official Website. Things indeed got better especially when Marc asked Ferdinand Tordecilla, a domain sponsor, to give the website its own domain name in 2009, the JulijoPisk.com.
In 2010 the website was renamed to Julijo Pisk: Site Ko ‘To, after giving the Pisk family their personal access to the website.
