Subsite
Optimize communication with accessible subsites
As a local government(municipality, water board, province or other local authority), you want to effectively bring important information to your residents. But do you recognize this problem? Managing multiple websites costs your team too much time, resources and energy. How do you ensure that all these websites are not only up-to-date and accessible, but also comply with strict legislation? The answer lies in a central, efficient solution that brings everything together and makes it manageable, without compromising on quality or security.
To bring important topics to residents' attention, a sub-website is a perfect solution. Consider topics such as sustainability, urban development, WOO requests or cemeteries.
Thus, in addition to the main primary service website, a subsite is the ideal way to bring targeted information to the attention of residents.
