Web quality assurance training with Siteimprove

Each web editor is responsible for ensuring their content on the ÂÜÀòÉäÇø website is up-to-date, accurate and relevant.

To assist with the process of auditing web content, we have implemented a web governance software tool called Siteimprove. We use this tool to generate monthly quality assurance (QA) reports for our web editors that summarize the overall quality of the web pages on the ÂÜÀòÉäÇø website.

Reporting features

Each report will be tailored for our web editors to focus on their section of the website. The reports will contain information such as:

  •  - an overall score that measures the quality and effectiveness of the content on the website.
  • Quality assurance (QA)
    • Content freshness
    • Content security
    • Detected misspellings
    • Content readability
    • Large image sizes (>1MB)
  • Search engine optimization (SEO)
    • Broken links
    • Pages not found (404 errors)
  •  - criteria for measuring the user experience (UX) for people with physical or cognitive disabilities.
    • Images missing alt tags
    • Descriptive text on links
    • Proper heading structure

Accessing Siteimprove

Each web editor will login to Siteimprove using their ÂÜÀòÉäÇø user ID and password to access the tool and go through their monthly QA reports. Each report will contain a list of links that need corrections or updates, along with recommendations on how to improve the quality of each web page.
