So I am University of system Hawaii's
principal Account Manager customer
success manager just quick show hands
across the the campus has anyone
attended any of the webinars that have
been provided by us okay so just a
couple across what we're gonna go
through today is the platform so another
question who here has logged into the
platform all right sounds good that's
that's definitely the first step in the
biggest step to be able to get in so
I've been working with Mitch and Claire
and the admin team to get Siteimprove
set up you have an unlimited contract
with us which means you have unlimited
user license we can scan domains that
are under your edu domain to cover that
so by scanning I'm gonna use scan crawl
spidering that's how we're collecting
all of our data the majority the
presentation is going to be some of the
share screen that we're going through
directly in the platform handful of you
have logged in handful of you have
attended some of the other ones so some
of this may be a little bit repetitive
on that regard but we can dive in deeper
if there's something that you want to
see a question on your website that you
want to go through we can definitely
look at that but a big part of this is
Claire mentioned we're part of the
accessibility initiative at the
University System of Hawaii so being
able to show you where your
accessibility issues are on your website
provide that at automated service do
that as a regular basis on a regular
basis and we provide a full suite of
tools so even though the big purchase of
this was for accessibility to help you
out and improve your website
accessibility we're going to show you
where you have a simple mistakes such as
misspellings broken links do you even
know what's on your website is a
continuing to grow bigger and bigger are
you going through a website redesign and
you're trying to purge content will be
able to provide you some of that type of
reporting a lot of that is done in the
Quality Assurance module with inventory
because really what we're doing
spidering crawling scanning we're going
through on a weekly basis and we're
looking at your full website that's
public so if there's a link out there if
there's content out there and we can
find it
that means someone else can find it
we're currently not set up within your
accounts to get past your your
Internet's or get into your Internet's
the login conversations being had
internally if we want to get in there
and see if that's approved but right now
it's it's your public facing websites is
what we're going through throughout
today I have a lot to talk about we're
gonna dive in pretty deep but if anyone
has a question in any of the rooms feel
free to interrupt me let me know and we
got a good number of people in here but
I have no problem diving in deeper and
some of the webinar based if you did
attend those a lot of questions and it's
helpful for everyone to be able to dive
in so what I wanted to start out going
through is we have the platform that you
can log into the biggest thing in
biggest action item is make sure that
you're a user and we're scanning your
site so after today if you go I thought
I was set up I wasn't connect with Mitch
connect with Claire get your website
scanned we can get you set up takes
probably two to three days to get full
data released and then once we do that
again will scan your website and update
it every week to be able to go through
unlimited users as you have interns if
you have student workers if you have
staff turnover get the new users added
we have full in platform training full
and platform help obviously we're on
site today we've done webinar base with
just the system - if there's a need for
that some of those webinar base or need
for us to come back hopefully that would
be an option at some point but we have
just a lot of in to land in platform
help I know everyone's a responsibility
didn't turn into site and prove
overnight it didn't turn into website
accessibility overnight so it really is
just another tool to be able to help
make your job easier because it it's a
part of the guidelines it's becoming a
part of just your normal
responsibilities with updating a website
so I'm going through the platform in
this kind of morning session we're gonna
have Kevin or accessibility expert go
through the platform or go through
accessibility issues more more than just
a high level what is accessibility but
what are some of the issues that I can
actually do what are some of those
action items so just diving right in I
wanted to show you one of the first
screens that you have
is it going to be your DCI dashboard so
being able to look in and see what's
going on on my website this DCI
dashboard it's a Siteimprove score it
is a combination of issues that we're
finding on your website first the checks
it's a good benchmarking and that's what
we actually have if you hover over some
of these circles out here how are you
doing with education so all the
university systems that we monitor the
university Hawaii edu the main website
they're above average seventy six point
eight this is part of the scoring we
report on the WCAG 2.0 guidelines so
to throw some acronyms at you the web
content accessibility guidelines we are
working on updating the two point one if
if you are familiar two point one has a
lot of the manual checks involved and
then the federal regulations are section
508 so section 508 actually encompasses
WCAG 2.0 so being able to work on
both and that's what the state has
adopted and that's what you're going to
be wanting to work towards is WCAG
compliance section 508 compliance if you
want to Google or go I had no idea about
some of these regulations best thing to
do afterwards is just start looking into
some of those guidelines this dashboard
can be customizable it's it's not
necessarily an action dashboard if
you're on more the management team
here's trying to get a quick handle DCI
dashboard is a good spot to come if you
have a lot of sites in your account you
should have your own login if you're a
specific college a specific campus and
you want to be able to see you know I
just want my content just able to manage
that that's how we have your account set
up with Siteimprove some do fall
under the university system but you have
a couple different dashboards just
getting that real high level how am i
doing out here
some of the more actionable, actionable
dashboards whether you're a developer
whether your content contributor whether
you're just I direct people to fix problems
issues on the website
flipping through some of these
dashboards what do we have out here
where do I need to go some of my action
items I hope I leave you today with very
specific things that this reporting I
need to go and do XYZ
I need to direct my team I need to I
need to do this myself and what I can
fix so diving in I'm gonna start with
Quality Assurance
so there's a good amount of people that
haven't logged into the platform yet and
I think just trying to get a handle on
what can I do with this software how do
I improve my website Quality Assurance
is the best spot to start it's broken
links misspellings inventory and
something that I hear from my
accessibility consultants all the time
it's it's not directly WCAG or
accessibility compliance but if you have
a broken link on your website let's say
it's to your admissions page your apply
page a program that you're promoting a
donate page you want to know if that's
broken so you want to be able to go in
and find that and fix that I think it's
it's black and white on quality
assurance is this an issues is
not an issue with website accessibility
there's some of that gray area did I did
I fix this issue by the specific code
does this go against the regulations
does it not we're getting a handle on
just working back and forth in between
Siteimprove and your content
management system I think it's gonna
give you a really good handle my end
it's really easy for me to say to be
like just get in there and work on it
but it it really is gonna be the best
thing like any new software we send out
reports once a week once a month at the
latest and I'll show you how to set up
your own reports but use those as a call
to action go in fix what you can in that
half hour timeframe whether it's every
Friday Monday morning where you go in
and then being able to move on so really
what we're doing let me dive in and show
you whether it's quality assurance
accessibility I'm just going to navigate
out to a broken link we overlay our
system and we show you where this error
exists on your website so I know it's
all about priority what's important to
you know your website better than I
do
you know what pages are more important
so you're able to group together pages
to you can say I I'm gonna focus on
these 10 pages whether you're using our
analytics another analytic service
make sure your priority pages are not an
issue on your website so focusing that
as a goal is I'm going to make sure I
have no accessibility issues I have zero
broken link zero misspellings
I have no style guidelines or other
infractions that you may have with we
need the university seal on every single
page or an accessibility policy what we
have here just highlighting in red
that's where the broken link is so not
able to open that up being able to get
that error page so I'm on this page
Siteimprove's the reporting system
you're not gonna break anything in Site
Improve you're not going to break
anything on your website as you're
working in here but you still need to go
in to your web editing system WordPress
Drupal all of the ones we have a lot of
connections with the different systems
we're not connected to every single site
but what you have the ability to do
towards the top part this edit and CMS
we are on the degrees and programs page
so instead of having to go find this
within your editing system you click on
that it's going to bring you right to
your WordPress page I don't have access
it doesn't give site and prove access so
kind of that security I'm not going to
be able to go in and edit your website
but that will connect you right to that
page and your workflow would be go in
fix that broken link all right well I
don't want to wait a week I want to make
sure that this is updated I want updated
reports it's hot part of this page
report again recheck this page it's kind
of like a browser refresh it's not near
as fast it's probably five minutes tops
it could be as fast as a minute but
that's one way to kind of just add this
into your workflow priority pages make
sure you don't have any errors on those
page and then also once you get through
those priority pages just working
through this list so I know we have a
lot out here we have some analytics data
that we'll eventually be able to pull in
coming through clicks on broken links
that can give you the the priority on I
have 5,000 where do I start this impacts
not only user experience and it may not
be an accessibility guideline but it
impacts your SEO so where do you appear
in Google you want quality pages as
they're getting better and better at
what they do they're looking at quality
content so making sure that people
can actually get to your content you
don't have any errors on that page so
it's just overall web presence is where
this can really help again I think this
is one of the more easy action items
what do I do in here fix a couple broken
links fix your misspellings and you'll
be able to again get better and then you
can dig into the weeds on website
accessibility and some of the policies
and show you everything else that we
have in here so quick pause because I
just started out kind of rambling on did
anybody come to today's meeting with
anything specific with an let's go with
platform related questions right now
that they wanted to go through all right
yeah again feel free to interrupt me I
know I didn't give you too much time but
uh let me know we'll continue going
through though so we present this
information a lot of different formats
broken links pages with broken links
different works well how do you go about
this I'd say a lot of my customers they
do work off pages with broken links
because they know their priority pages
and I just keep going back to that
University you keep creating content it
keeps growing and growing so do you
really want it to grow being able to
help bring it down and leading into
accessibility can we remove this page do
we have to remediate it is anyone
visiting this using your analytics if no
one's visiting the page if it's out of
date content sure even beyond the
website anymore can we just remove that
that web page instead of spending the
time to remediate it through
accessibility and you're gonna hear the
same thing through documents too so I'm
gonna get a little bit into documents
not not very deep we do have some
accessibility document reporting but I
know there's further training working
with Adobe I think next week they're
coming in so they'll be able to really
help you out too with document
accessibility all right another
navigation just clicking right out here
now we're looking at the page other
column out here what are the broken
links on the page being able to click on
it open up this report and again we'll
see the error in red highlight where
does this appear in my web
so for more information visit a CMS can
it's a broken link so people can't even
get to that is this an important page is
it an out-of-date page again being able
to say well we need to go in this go in
here and fix it we're the reporting
system we're here to help work alongside
WordPress work alongside your web
editing system yeah figuring this up um
the question I have for you is when you
get that red box showing up where on
that screen I want to see what that URL
is before I actually go off site to my
WordPress okay is that so where what is
the URL or where is it oh sorry so
that's a broken link yep so that means
that there's a URL attached to that yep
so where is that physically on that
screen that I can look at that and say
what the heck did I did is that a typo
or actually oh okay so this should be
able to get you the information you need
and it's towards the top part of the
page and this may be a little bit into
the weeds if I if I didn't understand
right but show HTML and then you can dig
in and you can see where exactly this is
located so this one it appears to be in
there properly so I believe this one is
just a 404 that's going through yeah
yeah this is Kevin I was gonna add along
to with what Travis is telling you how
often do we link to pages of documents
that are outside of our website and
outside of our control it happens a lot
especially universities we may be
linking back to a state level document
or something like that so keep in mind
that since you can't control that you
don't know when these broken links are
going to pop up because they're not
gonna email you or call you and say
guess what we're changing our server
structure okay so this is very common
when you are linking off your site so
keep that in mind too that it does
happen very regularly and you may need
to work with one of your other agencies
to
the newer version of that document or
find out if it's just plain gone thanks
Kevin so with that no go ahead
I've got to comment too on the view that
we just I'm Colin a comment regarding
the view you've got right now one of the
errors I see crop up a lot in the sites
that I'm looking at is they've got typos
or bad links in drop-down menus and so
normally in the in the regular page view
you don't get to see that and you really
have to go to this view to be able to
see those so it's a really handy tool
for that to go along with it and that's
exactly right so what we've done in what
we've updated Colin I think you've been
with Siteimprove for a while now so
what we're trying to do is let's say you
get out to a page we're looking at this
we're telling you there's an error in
the left-hand menu this is similar for
broken links misspellings accessibility
issues we have some drop-down menus up
here what we've started to do now is
highlight it in yellow so it will be a
yellow highlight it's not actually
showing you where the issue is so if
your content contributor your content
editor you I don't even want to look at
HTML one stop before going into there
disable the CSS I think this can be a
really good way to determine you know
where does this actually appear on the
page if it isn't that drop-down so using
that disable CSS if you're kind of
afraid of HTML right now but the HTML is
a really good spot to show you where
exactly in this code is especially if
you're on that the technical side this
is kind of a good opportunity I didn't
pull one out as an example where we're
not highlighting something let's say
we're out here and we're not
highlighting something you get to this
page report website accessibility
quality assurance that is not the
intended functionality so let us know
and I know it's real again really easy
on my own to say reach out let us know
but if we're telling you there's an
error out here and you can't find it
I'm going to navigate back into the
platform Help Center and Academy towards
the top part everyone has the ability to
connect with our support team we have
offices in Australia we have offices
where Kevin and I are headquartered in
Minneapolis Minnesota and then we have
offices in all over a year up
so you're supported worldwide the system
has great contract where it's going to
get answered so if you show up at 10:00
a.m. Minneapolis is at 5:00 you don't
have to wait a full day to get that
answer so one of the offices will pick
that up and where you're gonna submit
this so started talking before I finish
the navigation so top part of this
platform Help Center in Academy
click right on Help Center and then
submit a new request so the ability to
connect directly with Siteimprove on
platform related issues where I would
direct the questions internally is if
it's more is this a template level issue
that you don't have the ability to edit
we're reporting on it but you can't fix
it it's a Wordpress question that isn't
directly related to Siteimprove I
would direct those internally I don't
have that type of information on your
your WordPress contacts but I believe
it's directing internally with the
different systems different teams to
help you out there but again don't
hesitate to reach out to us we have the
ability to help you out with some of
this yeah so I have a interesting one
with broken false-positive broken links
and what's your recommended strategy for
that I have a links going out to
something called ResearchGate it's a
publication repository and for some
reason they come back as broken when
they're not broken so and I spelled
research wrong I'm gonna try and find one
that we can all look at right now so I
wasn't able to find one just with a quick
search but might do when you're looking
at these are you using the broken links
list or is it you're going out to a page
report and then being able to say well
this is a ResearchGate link it's
actually working for me okay
as I check and then confirm them and
they're not broken so my my guess is
we are...so I just found a couple that
I pulled up on the screen ResearchGate
4:29 too many requests so the HTTP
status code and what I did was I just
connected to it so I can say all right
well this is potentially a false
positive so with the ResearchGate we're
going through we're crawling their
system we're hitting so many of their
links with the too many requests their
server is intentionally blocking us so
that's one where instead of going all
right Siteimprove is reporting this is
broken I have to go in and fix it we
have some I never I need to figure out
the terminology like ghosting spooking I
am not sure but to be able to do some
things on the backend to say hey this is
Siteimprove coming in it it's not
actually Siteimprove let us actually
check this link will potentially be able
to get the actual HTTP status code and
not the 429 but without knowing all the
status codes basically what they're
doing with these false positives they're
seeing that it's our IP address it's our
crawler coming in they're saying no more
you you checked us too much this week or
this time as we're crawling our server
can't handle it so we're blocking them
because of that block we're reporting it
as broken so a couple things that can be
done the first step I would connect with
Siteimprove support to see if we can
do anything on the back end if it's an
internal very similar type of the
question I'm other people are going to
run into this too let's say you're
linking to an internet link it's
returning of 403 or it's not available
outside of your network we're gonna
report that as broken most likely to
because it's serving up a link that is
not accessible to everyone
with those it happens there's
configurations that can potentially get
us in if we can't and you know about
those you have the ability to ignore
it's never my first step the ability to
ignore on the broken links list the far
right hand side
I can ignore that broken link so if I
went in ignored it
the very next crawl we're not going to
go in and I know I ignore what's the
ultra white carbon nano form we're not
going to check that the next time it's
not going to appear in your list you'd
then have the ability to go into the
ignored links list this is something the
ignored button it's at the user level so
users have the ability to do this it can
be controlled down to the admin level if
we did some custom configurations I
wasn't going to get into all the custom
configurations today of the different
user levels if people have questions let
me know
we can take it offline or if enough
people in here want to want to look at
custom user configurations we can but
you have the ability to ignore right in
the platform and let's say I didn't want
to ignore that I could go right back in
and undo within this screen I do want to
let you know whether it's a misspelling
or ignore it does capture who made that
and when it was done reason why I
highlight this funny in quotes but I was
working with a customer the user ignored
absolutely everything and then we had
our account review call three months in
how are you doing great
went into the ignored list working with
his boss he ignored absolutely
everything in there and it was still an
error so just letting you know it's at
least recorded in there yeah and how does
ignoring something affect the score if
you have a supervisor looking over your
shoulder at your score so quality
assurance it impacts it in a positive
way because then it's no longer a part
of it so that's with the, that would be
with the misspellings links it's it's a
little bit more of a gray area because
part of the percentage is how many links
are we finding on your website and
ignore is removing that error but it's
also removing the links so it drops the
percentage so then the percentage is
going to change on your score but it's
also it's not a you ignore this it
increases by as you would fixing that
broken link that made sense in my head did
that make sense okay
the ignoring an accessibility is a
little bit different and we can get into
that I'm almost done with quality
assurance here but we'll get into that
and that's where I think it's Siteimprove
question and being able to go
through something that I wanted to let
you know the way university is set up
different campuses the different
colleges are having their own logins but
I know within each system there may be
20 sites there may be a hundred sites
right now we have a common dictionary
and right now what we're working on I
know we have you look in here well do we
have false positives with misspellings
to Hawaiian words UK English US
English how is it spelled and see we have a
couple different languages we have
automatic language detection setup we're
working on setting up multiple languages
on multiple pages so it's something that
it's not there right now it's a
percentage of the pages but we're
working towards that so just letting you
know there's potential within
misspellings I think for this is a
Hawaiian term or you know what this is
someone uses UK English we like to use
US English but it's not that big of an
issue that's where it may appear that
s's are the Z's coming through but it's
I think just more is it a problem on
your pages talking internally what type
of standards what type of style guide
when do we want with this very similar
navigate out magnifying glass out and
I'm gonna close out some of these tabs I
know plenty of people it's 100 tabs open
at once that happens I my recommendation
was Siteimprove because it's not an
automatic fix into WordPress and getting
back to the navigation trying to have
only a couple that we Siteimprove
tabs open at once I think just the
workflows a little bit better otherwise
it we're supposed to be a time-saver for
you like we're not going to be able to I
don't think make you money as with our
service but we're gonna save you time
and then potentially save you money from
accessibility issues and someone not
hitting the apply button but again you
don't want to have 20 tabs open send
it's WordPress did I actually
it wasn't updated in the Siteimprove
platform so then I go out to the same
page I didn't actually fix it so that's
just a recommendation for my end but yeah
magnifying glass so very so much the
broken links it's going to show us where
the misspelling is if it's in a
drop-down using that disable CSS or show
HTML what what I get asked a lot to they
go well that's great
that's not my error that's not my
document that's I didn't put that
content in there if it's on your web
pages that were scanning even if you
don't own it, it's still your problem
whether it's a quality assurance issue
SEO issue accessibility issue because
it's on the pages you own so it is
working as a team collaboratively to say
well and and if you don't want to do
that then it's having to remove that
content so if there's the error out there
and you don't own it then you do have to
make the decision is I'm not gonna get
these other teams involved or if I'm not
sending out so who owns this then do you
have to remove it from your website all
right hit that edit and CMS being able
to go through. Readability triple A
accessibility issue we threw it in
Quality Assurance but readability how's
my content prepared high school
sophomore college level us and the Flesch-
Kincaid so this isn't a Siteimprove
scoring these are just scoring systems
that we've been able to overlay
recommends high school
sophomore I have customers all over the
board that focus on readability where
Kevin may talk about an accessibility
think of English as a second language so
it's making sure that your content is
accessible even if it's not a part of
the guidelines that you're trying to
meet so English as a second language
someone has dyslexia if I'm looking at a
web page and I have content just all
over the place I have banners I have
information very similar to a newspaper
am I jumping all the way around do I
have these really long run-on sentences
do I have multiple syllables in a
sentence to have multiple paragraphs let
me go out to one of these
Higher ones with all of this said
there's just some things that I know is
written by an attorney it was a
statement page that you can't change
privacy policy page so at least having
that in mind but having the visibility
into this type of information I think is
really valuable and very similar again I
similar a lot will highlight where these
issues occur so internationally one word
with multiple syllables out there is
that gonna change the whole topic
probably not but at least having some of
this visibility into are all our pages
are we writing not are we not being
concise are we putting just a ton of
content out there just to have content
out there so being able to get some of
that insight and information and it
eventually it does tie in to
accessibility for some of the different
issues so difficult words and then
potentially long sentences run-on
sentences as I look for this oh it was
on that [indiscernible] so long sentences so
we can see this whole mission is just
one long sentence so a little bit more
of a grammar check working with
something like our mission how many
people are you getting involved to make
a type of change like this effort and
priorities that's where I try and bring
everybody back to you it is effort and
priorities and with the web this is just
turning a part of the responsibility and
it's not just throw all the contents out
there always it's trying to rein it back
how important is this and then we're
really here to try and help you decide
what is important what can you fix so
that was quality assurance we don't
pretty deep into all the different
features the last Travis is gonna
definitely this is Colin again one
thing that I know a lot of people in the
room and probably across the system are
gonna be doing is either migrating sites
or trying to get a handle on their
current sites and so something I find
really handy and quality assurance is
the inventory now both are finding PDFs
but also just listings of pages and you
know what size images they've got that
kind of thing too
all right what let's dive into there
thanks Colin so looking at your websites
looking at website redesign what are we
putting out there for content it's
actually it is one of my favorite spots
just because we're crawling your website
you're not I mean yes you're paying for
the service but you're not having to go
out and do this manually you're not
paying another person to go out and
crawl it and this is what we were built
we were built as a crawler so you're
starting right out with documents what
do we have out there for documents Excel
files PowerPoint files Word XML
internal-external we tried to separate
that out based on what we're indexing so
is this a part of your main domain being
able to click into this and see where do
all of these live something that you may
have saw as I was clicking around on the
broken links or misspellings we have an
export feature out here if you're
someone that goes you know what this is
great I have my own system I have my own
platform I like to work in Excel export
this out you can throw a lot of these
lists directly into Excel combine it do
what you want with there I used to think
I was good at Excel until I found
something that was good at Excel so
that's where I try and shy away on that
but at least being able to look at this
and being able to sort something that we
can create a policy on but you can do it
just right in Quality Assurance
inventory how old are some of my PDFs
when was the last time some of these
were modified so if it's broken
we're not going to be able to pull in
this information from the metadata but
if I go a couple pages out I know with
9,000 we're gonna go a couple actually
find some from a 2002 out here so is it
relevant is it information that you
still need out there
can we just purge it because with
document accessibility 2 it takes a lot
of effort to remediate some of these
PDFs where does that live and then using
some of the analytics if no one's
clicking on this information can I just
get rid of it and the inverse of that
even if no one's clicking on it and it's
important well then how do we get people
to click on it we need, is it we need to
remediate this PDF we need to give it
higher visibility
if you deem that it's important enough
to be out there documents same idea with
the links internal/external being able to
use some of the filters out here export
out broken link not broken link we are
migrating to HTTPS content we're
removing our we're getting rid of HTTP
not that fun of a conversation I had
just telling someone hey you should go
over to HTTPS I call yeah it's that easy
so learn quickly when you're not a
developer try not to tell people that
it's a very easy thing to do so that was
kind of a fun comment okay I just switch
it over there yeah we know it's bigger
project then I had any idea but being
able to sort again as we mentioned some
of those false positives 403s
and maybe find some of these reason why
we report I guess going back on that
some of these as as broken links because
if I can't get to them other users can't
get to them and we can find them so even
if I'm outside of your network should
this be visible to anybody then should
anyone be able to click on it can you
hide it on the webpage if I'm not in
your network so that's where we have
some configurations on the back end to
say you know what they know it's out
there we don't want to ignore the 403s
completely but don't have Siteimprove
report those as broken links but those
403 is those are forbidden and then I
get served with a page like this I'm
outside I I'm on your network but I
don't have access to to view this page
so bad user experience
all right documents media files
how large are my images so you can
really get into the weeds with autos and
even just we're scanning close to 30,000
pages on Hawaii edu so there's a lot of
content out there but we're finding 49
thousand images that's a lot of images
out there people using mobile devices
how fast is the page loading if you're
trying to increase your SEO again you
want page performance being able to do
quick sorts by what are the sizes of
these images
so keeping it under one megabyte and
actually at first one see how big this
one - sorry if anyone in the room is on
this one we're picking on it
Any art picture out there but it's
24 megabits all this one that I haven't
pointed out to in this whole inventory
and pretty much throughout the whole
platform where does this live so it's
great that I have this list but where
does it actually live on my website so
being able to find this type of content
alright everything in quality assurance
for the most part that I went over
question mark blue box you got an
interactive tutorial to walk you right
through the service using that help
center my role here too is I'm cc'd on
all of those tickets so if I'm seeing
something that a lot of people are
having questions maybe we can have
another session being able to share more
of this information with you so it's not
everyone is asking the same thing and
the communication isn't going anywhere I
really am I'm an expert in the platform
so that's really where I want people to
leverage my role and then when I can
jump in and hopefully share some of this
information out here with all this there
is a ton of information so action items
if it's just a simple enough is broken
links and misspellings and going along
with as you're migrating content as
you're redesigning doesn't really matter
because you have a lot of pages in your
contract but we don't count development
websites against your your number so
what will you be able to do is and what
you're going to see is I have a little
bit of a different view but you can have
a drop-down and let's just say we have
the main site and then we have our
development site that's yet to be
released so if you think of a
development site more as a project so if
you're moving from Drupal 7 to Drupal 8
WordPress to the updated WordPress
version or of that project based we'll
scan that free of charge but it's not
your staging environment that you have
continuously but that way you get a
quality check before you go live as I
transition into accessibility scanning
the websites for accessibility before
going live is great feature that we are
now posting content
that's not accessible right away when
you know it's part of it if if you're
working with separate vendors within
your colleges to help with the website
design being able to get them checked
before using their templates to be able
to say can we just check your template
and get a reporting on this not that
anyone wants to be not accessible but if
you don't know what you don't know for
some of these cases and then the last
thing and inventory then I wanted to
show you and now I'm the kid that keeps raising
his hand but one second
inventory organized your website by
directory and folder so how was your
website organized out here as an admin
or in an account owner in your group if
you wanted a segment your website out
even further even further so you know
what I have two people that they run
these four websites I could group out
the About section the academic section
the access section and then you'd be
able to let them log in and view just
their content so you can get pretty
granular within each website too so I
might have missed it but did you say
that it was possible to scan a dev site
being hosted externally that's not quite
a Hawaii edu site yet but will be yes if
it will be yes fantastic yep
yeah and then the kind of last plug for
quality assurance this is right now
where it's going to be moved into a
little bit different of a section but
you can get some security information in
here too so you may have saw social
security information but I know
everyone's worried about privacy
nowadays accessibility isn't moving in
that direction but do we have any social
security out there with Europe general
data protection regulations whose email
addresses on the website phone numbers
are out there so and we found some
potential ones I didn't realize this
they are on let's go out and look Sampler
[indiscernible] so I'm wondering if these are
we have a if you're more on the
technical side a regular expression but
we have a formula set up to just look
for three
numbers - two numbers - four and I think
this one is if there's false positives
great I would rather know that there's a
false positive out there then
potentially we have this on my website
so I opened up the page my wandering
close out of some of these open up
another one
and being able to see where it is but
some of that security type information
too so I'm not sure why it's not
appearing so the best I know why we
don't highlight it we tell you it's on
the page if we want to highlight it it's
going to be in the left hand navigation
in the policy system so this is
something that our support team we can
help set up for you working with our
product team right now to just try and
get that highlighted on the page so you
don't have to do a get out here and do a
ctrl F where does this exist but having
that functionality always giving you an
alerting you to where does this exist on
the website so I'm gonna jump into
accessibility now but before I do that
any questions so far on what I've been
going through comments. Question: This is Sunny at Hilo, we supplied a dictionary of Hawaiian words and I was wondering if there was any progress on getting that in globally for the UH system? I don't have an
update on that I know it's it's sitting
with our development team so I now that
talking aloud I do have somewhat of an
update but it's not a immediate update
misspellings is currently slated to be
revamped end of q4 early q1 so into
December early January and that's when
that would be added to it so it's
depending on your definition of a quick
win on that one
maybe it's quick if it's within a
calendar year but if unfortunately it's
not going to be in the next week or so. Ok, thank you.
Adding to that question, is the Hawaiian dictionary being entered
with and without diacriticals because I
think the UH style book is without
diacriticals but the real words have diacriticals. I don't have
an answer for you I don't know with this
if you I know you wouldn't want to copy
a whole dictionary just scroll and copy
it but if you had common pages and
thousand or
or you just you had some ability to copy
and paste whether is via Word Excel
within this misspellings area you can
add word to dictionary and I know it's
not the best way to go but you can add
it right here just a massive copy and
paste that would add it to it but it's
not not done on the Siteimprove side
so I've had a couple people go back and
forth on I'm gonna do that I'm not going
to do that. So what about scientific
names? so a lot of times they're in Latin
those I see pop up in the potential
misspellings area a lot I don't see them
a whole lot in the actual misspellings
out here that is something that we work
with a lot of scientific medical
universities too and that's the debate
of is it Latin is it properly properly
spelled Latin how is it being
interpreted by our system it's my
understanding that we're not having a
dictionary solely to that being added in
there but they also shouldn't be flagged
so that's kind of a side step on on your
question but they shouldn't be flying
and if they are again submit a support
ticket and we'll, we'll look further into
that. I got I was working on this
exact thing this potential misspellings
I know started like the first four or
five and I thought how important is it
for me to clear all these things does it
really matter I wouldn't start there I
think it's it is one of the things that
it's more of a low-hanging fruit it's
something that it can benefit there
could be a misspelling that's an actual
misspelling in there that you want to be
notified about but I would start with
broken, if you're just in the
quality assurance, broken links and
misspellings get that down to zero and
then once you're at zero on those
because those are more readily
identified is this an issue is that not
an issue I know we've had some of the
the false positives which I hope that
made sense on it but if I was going to
go into the misspellings area I see
thirty six thousand I wouldn't want to
tell anyone unless they're an intern
just trying to get site
improve experience to go through and
quick yes-no yes-no yes-no without
fixing them something that can be done
fairly quickly not 30,000 quick but
export this out to excel and this big
list and quickly delete words that are
not an issue so yeah this is gonna be a
big list but then I would do a mass and
Excel kind of starts breaking at the
thirty thousand six limit I would do it
mass upload of those instead of doing
individual checks on here
I would pick and choose from that
document what I want added to the
dictionary and I would add that to the
dictionary so you would go through and
you would delete actual misspellings
from that list and then you could copy
and paste ten thousand words right into
this add words to dictionary so that's
the way I would go about it once you
already have addressed though some of
the other issues but no very long-winded
answer I wouldn't focus on potential
misspellings with accessibility issues
on the website and broken links and
actual misspellings that were identified
so good questions again along with this
I know I've done just a lot of point in
clicks some have been recorded webinars
have been recorded I'm here in person is
this being recorded so this will be
recorded and can be shared afterwards I
also shared a slide deck it doesn't fall
exactly what I went through today but if
you're someone that goes you know what I
webinars are great I just want to be
able to scroll through a slide deck and
see what's going on in the platform
that's gonna be shared shortly to. Alright
so website accessibility hopefully
hopefully you're familiar with it what
we have with website accessibility and
be able to help you out if you're not we
have Academy courses so definitely
want to show you and give you action
items within the platform but wanted to
let you know and actually as of today
we're going to be releasing more Academy
courses but help center all the way down
to the bottom your views going to be a
little bit different than mine and I can
switch over to your view out here
because I know everyone has so much time
to just take courses at at leisure being
able to go into the course library out
here you can see we have oh and it it
has been updated so accessibility for
content contributors leadership web
developers we have web fundamentals out
here so being able to attend these
courses get a better understanding of
how to actually address some of these
issues we do have other courses that are
how do I work within Siteimprove and
the accessibility platform and then just
what is accessibility interactive I mean
there are some video video quiz moments
but it's also some clicks read some
content so highly recommend this you
just have to be a user in the Siteimprove
platform to be able to get to
these Academy courses so I know the the
system also has other learning
management systems but this is included
in your subscription I really recommend
it and I think it's a great starting
point to to be able to say what do I
even do with this what's my starting
point how to actually work with with
website accessibility and some of the
education that Kevin will go through
this afternoon it really is just getting
a buy-in from from management all the
way down to I didn't I created it
a document I handed it over to my
web person it's their responsibility
well you created a document for the web
hand them over an accessible document so
that a lot is training and resources but
it's saying everyone involved now and
it's just it's part of the
responsibilities of maintaining
maintaining a website whether it's
liability issues which I hope it's not
the only reason you're doing this but
it's also for you want everyone to be
able to view your content just like
physical accessibility such as elevators
side cutouts it makes it easier for
everyone visiting your website too so
whether it's with Hawaii a lot of
websites with sunset pictures
out there I have white text does that
make it difficult to read if it's on the
other part of the sunset so even taking
in some of those ideas and text on
images how does this impact what people
are seeing and it's
it's not just people that are taking
some of Kevin's thunder on this one it's
not just sight impairments it's not just
sight impairments it's physical its
mental so again dyslexia being able to
go through and navigate the website so
I'm gonna switch over because the
university is in a pretty good spot and
I'm gonna pick on someone else that I
think at random we're gonna click around
I didn't I didn't look at anyone but I
guess just to promote the University has
done a ton of work and I know there's a
lot of work that's already been done
we're looking at the 76 that's a Siteimprove
score we try and overlay and
give you that handle but these errors
and warnings at 93 and 83 that's really
good to see so a lot of work has been
done we're able to track this progress
being able to occurrences and issues
over time and I reason why this has gone
up we've just been scanning more and
more pages so I know it's it's kind of
tough it's like what we've done all this
work but the errors have gone up we're
finding more and more content out there
so working in accessibility log in where
do I go from here kind of quick show of
hands just across who in the room is a
content contributors developers admin I
guess I should been more clear how many
content more just content contributors
are in here okay any developers okay all
right kind of mix all over which is I'll
show you both I think will be good so
with this some of the issues our
template level it's coding it's
something that good thing about those at
that template level you fixed one area
it populates across the whole website
you hopefully don't have to go in and
fix every single page content
contributors there's still a lot that
can be done images providing more
information on the website so as I get
in here there's kind of two different
thoughts on how to work on accessibility
within Siteimprove one is and this is
by one of our
ability consultants I Keith he's he's
blind
so he has kind of that first-hand
knowledge of what are the biggest
impacts and he always goes well I go to
the most visited pages so I like to work
off the pages and he goes and then you
always get deeper into the website I
completely understand that where if I'm
a Content contributor I like focusing on
a specific issue because I go in and I
know how to do that one issue and I know
how to do that one issue good and I can
make that impact but again a more of the
development level and from the one
thought is work on your most visited
page fix everything or as much as you
can on that page fix every quality
assurance issue being able to go in and
again we'll show you where this
potential issue is on your website so
this is highlighting this what is that
this is going to be kind of a back-end
code issue an aria-label being able to
highlight where this is and it looks to
be a full page issue okay so some of the
highlighting in here but being able to
go in and see that so the if you're new
to this you're new to accessibility I
really like working off I'm going to
change kind of the course I like working
off the issues tab I think it's a little
bit more actionable to say I don't know
what to do having someone say if you
don't know what to your content
contributor come in here work on links
that's the way a lot of people navigate
the website whether you're using
assistive technology so actually that's
the way you navigate the website it's
through links so making sure that your
links are accessible being able to sort
as I'm clicking all around into a level
this is going to be sticky so if you
walk in and say you know what I just
need my list we're looking at across the
website let's start at the very
beginning we're looking at a lot of
issues 116 again try not to get
overwhelmed there's a lot of work that's
already been done so it's not horrible
shape out here what's sort by double A
we want to work towards double A
conformance right now down 101 errors
the severity out here this is a Siteimprove
determination so this isn't a
guideline determination this is
something that we've decided that we've
tried to identify the guidelines so what
WCAG 2.0 guidelines to say here are some
of your more egregious here is something
that we're able to check for it's it's
something that we found on your website
as an automated service one unable to
identify is this an actual issue but we
know it could be an issue out there so
our our stance to give you insight into
how we kind of the why of this we
decided to do some of this over
reporting where if we can at least let
you know that you should look into this
issue we want to give that ability to
the customer so with that it goes well
gosh there's a lot to do out here but
it's also how do you be notified if no
one ever told you that you should be
looking into this so that's where kind
of our motto is as we try and be that
the accessibility evangelist is let them
know let them know that this could be a
potential issue give them the resources
and to make that decision but we'll go
to airs down 267 editor these are again
Siteimprove identifications editor
developer webmaster it's not set in
stone as an account owner you have the
ability to change this so being able to
identify well our editors don't handle
link destination just using it as an
example you'd always be able to change
this on the far right hand side but
again we're now down to 14 and mentioned
looking at links we're now down to five
so if I'm first time in here I this is
now my responsibility and I'm told to
work on this I come in here and I hit
these four filters it's gonna be sticky
for me and now I have a concise
condensed a list of items so I don't
login and I go there's a lot in there
you know what this email is pretty
important I need to work on that so as
we go through very similar I'm not going
to spend a ton of time on navigation but
you click on it you get a very similar
report out here
open it up and then we'll show you again
overlay our information and here's this
image link out here and it just doesn't
have alt text so I know we have it but
we have the names of the people below
but where is this sending to me is it
sending me to an image it sent me to a
new area so can we provide alt text on
what is going on here all right same
thing edit in CMS being able to
navigate right to WordPress being
able to put that Alt in there something
does the University can you post do you
have to put alt text in before you post
an image nope okay so it's one of those
things to where again the risk of saying
this is easy and it's potentially not I
know some of the systems whether it is
WordPress Drupal is some of the more
closed off systems they are at least
giving the ability everyone locks
everybody loves locking down everything
but at least where you get this warning
you're about to post an image without
alt text are you sure you want to do
this so there's always some of that
that's going on right now it's not set
up but it's something to look into if
you are admitting your current site all
of this too I've been mentioning Quality
Assurance I've started out mentioning we
scan your website on a weekly basis we
can send out automated emails to whether
it's just a reminder to say hey login to
the platform or you want to work off
those so if you're not receiving those
two what you have the ability to search
just how to set up a report configure a
QA report broken links misspelling
configure and configure an
accessibility report it's good spot to
to pull it all into we archive it right
in the platform these reports but you
get it in your inbox I know just another
email but if you're someone that goes I
just want to work off a report or I want
to send it out to someone whether it's
someone internal external development
team having the ability to do that to
left-hand navigation with accessibility
guidelines pages
a lot of this it's different format
presenting the same information so I
started out with pages it's gonna tell
you every page guidelines is a good spot
to see what are the actual guidelines
what in the world is WCAG 2.0 green
box with the checkmark I like this
view if you're just trying to get a
handle of am I doing anything right and
the answer is yes so when someone asks
hey we have a lot of accessibility
issues yes we do but we're using Siteimprove
we're using document
accessibility system we have our
education in place and by the way here's
a report here's everything that's being
checked for by Siteimprove's automated
service all these check boxes say we
don't have this issue letting you know
to accessibility it's not all just
automation a lot of it is manual testing
so there's some things that they just
can't be determined it it needs to be
human looking through it so whether
you're doing that internally or hi this
is Kirsten in Manoa, so my question to
you is pertaining to this particular
page but maybe finding what you were
just describing about the alt text like
if we had questions about alt text is
there a section in here that would
address our questions about
accessibility like how long should alt
text be, what should it describe etc
etc so on the specific issues so some of
the the navigation the question was
where do I find this what is best
practice so we've tried to do that on
some of these issues so if I walk just
like back into the issues and I'm
looking at all of this whether you're
hovering over getting some of this when
you're clicking on the actual issue we
have some Help Center articles that I'll
click into that try and give a holistic
or you need to do XYZ for this one it's
we have it right in here and then you
may read that and go okay great I still
don't know what I should have for this
how do I describe it
that's where hopefully you're able to
take away a lot of what what Kevin
presents this afternoon because I know I
mean that's a good question because it's
Well great,
I know I know I need to do this but what
do I actually do so having some of that
[indiscernible question] yep yep so within this area this is
where we put even more information and
we actually go so all right this doesn't
tell me what I need to know the bottom
part of this how do I actually meet this
criteria and what do I do a couple of
different links out here that bring you
directly to the the governing body of
this the governing body of the
guidelines the W3C not being I'm not a
developer not being technical when you
first look at this and you see some of
the acronyms and realized I don't want
to dig into this I actually think they
do a really good job for an issue of
being fairly concise and giving a couple
examples so that was a way aria if you
just wanted more of like what do I do
out here you can see some of the other
examples so as you're starting to get a
handle on it page report page or the
page report and then how do I meet this
criteria these normally three links down
here are the best spot to go
all right PDFs
we're inventory new your PDFs we're
giving you a quick handle on you know
what a Siteimprove finding for airs
out here I know we were in the inventory
section these are PDFs that we've
identified their internal to your
website what I do in here is quick sort
by machine readable and tagged also if
we have analytics data being pulled in
being able to look at the clicks on PDFs
biggest thing is you want to make sure
that they're machine readable and that
they're tagged otherwise it's an image
out here so as I click into some of
these so I'll open one that's not machine
readable not tagged and I can see in the
URL 97 how old is this doesn't need to
be out there is it on a a faculty page
or a professors page where it's just
part of a course from 1997 that they
just wanted to post out there that's
where I understand accessibility gets
difficult you don't want to take away
information but you also don't want to
post content that's not accessible but
if I wanted to say you know what I want
to "John Charlotte" I want to copy that
I want to Google it can't copy it it's
an image out there it's not providing
any additional information if I'm using
assistive technology but if I look at
something that is and the example
purposes of this is to show you if
something's machine readable and tagged
again having an accessible website
having accessible documents it benefits
everyone so being able to go through and
highlight specific content you should be
able to do that if it's a machine
readable machine readable and tagged so
like an address a specific name not sure
why not able to on some of these but I
where I'm getting at with this is being
able to highlight within a PDF some of
this and think it could be my system but
that I was trying to give you more of a
hard example of why you want to make
sure that it's machine readable and
tagged but this one it is it's it's
readable by assistive
technology there we go that was harder
to say than I thought
close out of some of these with this
again inventory supposed to give you a
good spot to start of where do I look
for documents what do I need to make
accessible and have it right in this
location what do we check right and that
helped texts out there right next to
that export will tell you everything
that we check in PDFs all right so I
mentioned that we can scan development
websites let's say as of right now you
go well you know what development
websites are great but I really need to
scan my intranet I have pages that
aren't a part of the crawl there they're
not public facing we have Firefox and
Chrome extensions they're free they're
not tied directly into the service you
can see it's going to be the same look
and feel so if you can use our platform
you can use the extension these are
really used for if we can't crawl your
website or you don't want us to to be
wet in really good spot limitations of
it is the reporting it's it really is
because it's that free tool it's not
tying back into your system but you can
at least get a quick handle and I really
like these if you are testing out new
templates something that you're not
ready to roll out and you don't need it
crawled on a regular basis this is a
really good option for it all right
very similar decisions out here and I
guess to give you insight too it doesn't
impact you right now especially if
you're new to Siteimprove but come q1
we are rewriting our checks so it's
they're gonna be more efficient
they're gonna provide more detail so
that's something just on the development
side of things
we're looking to make this even better
than that hopefully you already think it
is but that's coming I was told early q1
moving timeline so I feel with this
being recorded probably shouldn't have
said q1 but that's where we're we're
looking right now so doing some of our
rewrites it's not going to change
overnight it's not going to be a new
look and feel it be giving you more
decision-making capabilities within
within some of this areas
all right so website accessibility
really key takeaways whether you're an
editor or a developer come in use the
filters out here I'm gonna switch it
over because we did have a couple
developers in the room if I'm a
developer I'm kind of doing a little bit
of the opposite of a content editor I am
looking at this issues lists still and
what I'm looking at is items that have a
lot of pages out here
perfect example will be this input field
two thousand six one six three WCAG
issues out here I am fairly confident
it's gonna be the same occurrence at
least one of these is going to be the
same occurrence on every single page so
the ones with one I'll open up and then
I'll open up a couple of six and it
looks like all gosh I have two thousand
something pages I have to hit
verification I bet you that's the same
verification on every single page so if
you fix that I opened too many tabs you fix
that it's gonna be fixed across the
whole website on this page I have a
question ask us that sure that's the
same one across the website so those
input fields being able to update that
you update the whole website so when you
look at this initial report you go wholly
cow I have two thousand something pages
I have all these issues a lot of times
and again if I'm a developer this is
where I go if I'm an editor I'm looking
at the editor features and I'm working
on a little bit differently unless I'm
working more on the on the priority
pages the issues that I can make a big
impact on all right so been talking a
whole lot I know I haven't gotten
through the rest of the platform so I do
want to highlight just a couple the
other things but because accessibility
is the focus any questions any comments.
Is there a way to isolate a portion of a site that is
problematic but you're working on it or
is it all or nothing?
yes there is so by isolate I would
create a group of it I wouldn't I
wouldn't want to exclude it so where I'm
going with this and it's gonna be
hopefully concise
I wouldn't exclude it which we can do
which would say don't scan this part of
the website we'll we'll add it when
we're ready for the historical purpose
of it I would still crawl it but within
the group area you have to be an
administrator or an account owner to be
able to create these if it's a directory
based where it's just about section
really easy I'll give this one a quick
test you would just put in the pages
that you want to include it in the group
so for scanning that add group match and
say you know what whole website without
XYZ
oh I should that should have
been the name but what you would put
here forward slash about exclude Save
Changes if that's a part of the URL if
if you use breadcrumbs I can see we have
capture tag set up breadcrumbs or
certain sections that were capturing on
say you know what every page has
administer on it I don't want to scan
any of those pages we can also do that
too or not scan
I don't want those included so to try
and be more concise yes we can
alright I know there was a question
online. Question: You have the inventory, I might have missed it, is there a way to export that to a site map or xml file? No there's not I wish that's
something that to show everyone our
community I know it's it's one of those
things where it's like I don't want to
submit another community to really I
know I'm sign a Siteimprove employee
but to really promote our community to
things as a University of Hawaii you
have access to our accessibility
education community very similar people
in your situation it is it's K through
12 or its K through higher ed in this
one the best thing about this it's
managed by Keith another of our
accessibility consultants so the worst
that's going to happen is you're gonna
get an answer from an accessibility
expert or a member of our product team
where I'm going with this though is I
have heard the ask for XML sitemap I
will I wish we had that I would throw it
in the community and SEO to add it to
our feature request. So no you're welcome.
Alright any other questions I know
we're kind of running up on our time if
not I can show you just a couple other
features all right so I'm gonna show you
our policy really quick and what this is
site search so whether you're developer
or content editor I love this tool
because it can hopefully make your job a
lot easier to remove content to find
content that needs to be on every single
site so let's say that the president
Provost comes down and says you need an
accessibility statement on any on every
single one of your pages and it's not up
to the to the ETS group to manage this
it's not up to the template group it's
up to you you can get a quick list of
every page where that doesn't occur on
let's say you're doing analytics and
you're doing certain campaign tracking
specific code tell me any page that this
old campaign is on or that I have
duplicate analytics scripts so if I'm I
had a new department had come in and
they said oh I want to use a Google
Analytics and there's already Google
Analytics on there and it's the same one
are you getting are you getting two
times the hits for just one so it's just
being able to get some of that the
example that we have out here
we got email addresses large images that
mix content some of the others public
pubic having that so not a not a
misspelling very simple ones like that a
lot of people use this I think it's one
of the most powerful tools that your
contracted for but what a lot of my
customers end up using this for is
people that have left the organization
where do they exist so being
able to search their names so if I go to
create policy - content this is an example
so we're looking at everyone under the
main account so not everyone's
individual site putting anyone on the
spot is there a name that you know
someone just left and there's the
potential to be out there or something
that maybe it's a phrase that University
no longer wants anyone to use to search
for
OGE [Office of Graduate Division] okay oh is that did they change
the name to okay another really good
example you no longer have a course
offering you change the department name
so do I have that right office of
graduate education or okay so I know I
have it capitalized in there I'm not
going to have it case sensitive you can
do that so you put the search in what's
the name if you want to put more notes
in there Save Changes awesome thing
about policy it's already in the backend
of our system so this is just calling on
the inventory so it took seconds to look
through I want to say we have 40 quote
35,000 something pages in our inventory
so it goes pretty fast
twenty-nine matches if you have multiple
sites in your account will show where it
is look at the main one and then very
similar again I always have to take a
step back I'm in here every day so I'm
like all this is easy but hopefully as
you get more time in here it does become
easier to use because we've tried to
keep it fairly consistent across the
platform then you just click on the link
and then we'll highlight where this
appears so this comes back to priorities
how big of a issue is this if it's a
mandate is it something that you're
bringing down something that I guess
this is a good idea being a reporting
system it's sometimes difficult to be
proactive you're always being reactive
because it's a report I need this
information this is where I have more
customers trying to use policy say you
know we're thinking of implementing a
change we're thinking of doing XYZ and
then they see we have 5600 matches I'm
not ready to take on that project right
now so being able to help again
with priorities if it's something where
it's like alright well I have a hundred
matches
maybe I can go in and say XYZ this is
your responsibility for the next week
this is a two-hour project I hope you
can get it done in this amount of time
instead of being this is a month-long
project value to benefit where is that
occurring so site search so where some
of our checks that they may not live in
quality assurance that broken links
misspellings inventory area where we
decided to have them with so if you're
just going what are other people didn't
know more what are other people in our
system doing what are other people in
the world doing to help improve their
website this is a really good spot to
come and then short words repeated so
and/and the/the more of a grammar check
out here and as I created that I guess I
don't bring this up a whole lot but if
you just hit this plus one you can
actually have it with in a different
part of the system so if you want it to
live and say look you know what policy
is just another area that I have to
click in you can say you know what
display this and Quality Assurance too
we want it right there all right
usability we don't have any data being
pulled in right now on every site but I
just want to let you know this is some
of the analytics I was talking about
within Siteimprove the priority type
data where who's clicking on a link
who's viewing my pages being able to
help sort by that so it's going to be
unique to your account but in the
usability area along with this you get
behavior maps so that's your quick maps
heat map scroll maps some of the other
ones it's built right in
you're not paying any extra for it but I
know some of the other other people
customers I've worked with they've used
Hotjar Crazy Eggs so it's similar to
that if you're familiar with any of
those but how are people actually
navigating your website with a
screenshot so where's their mouse what
are they clicking on what I didn't
realize when we first started promoting
this is with a lot of the analytics
tools the event tracking that needs to
be set up for documents with this script
it's automatically set up with
those document downloads so if you're
just trying to get a quick handle on
who's clicking on my PDFs and just
accessibility aside priority aside you
just want to know that it's
automatically set up so if it's on the
webpage our scripts on that webpage will
inventory that in you don't have to do
additional work for some of this event
tracking you don't have to contact Siteimprove
to do any additional work to
set that up so will automatically track
that and I know I didn't get into SEO at
all making your website more accessible
fixing your broken links and
misspellings is going to help if you are
more under pressure for SEO or you it's
a big interest for you we have 66 checks
so we have our full technical audit we
have a lot of SEO checks in here full
team managing the service - I didn't
want to kind of short sight it and say
like and skip it because it's not good
because it is really good audit. Question: What does SEO stand for? Search
search engine optimization so SEO where
do where does your site and where your
web pages appear in a Google search so
that's kind of the big thing with you're
putting content out there you want
people to be able to find it so that's
where we'll tell you where there's
potential issues so I know well we'll go
right up to our time and I have time
afterwards I know I don't want to keep
anyone so I won't hold anybody longer
but sixty-six checks what is causing
issues for Google to index Bing to index
and display your display your pages
where are you getting docked for points
and as a crawler very similar to how
Google's indexing your content that's
what we're doing we're overlaying this
information and then we're able to pull
in some information directly from Google
they have an API so they just they
display some information and we can call
on the information that they have and
just condense or create one report for
it so you're not going to all these
different services to find it I
guess one of the big takeaways yes this
is for accessibility and we can hope we
hope that you improve your accessibility
of your website but as a holistic tool
and looking at the whole the
site as a whole being able to help you
improve everything get everything in one
system make it easy to use and then we
have a lot of support features built
right in being able to connect with us
so that was kind of one of the big
takeaway so hopefully this was
beneficial for you
I know I did a lot of talking thanks for
coming that's good to see the amount of
people
