Aberdeen City Council Top Slot

Top slot of council website 23/06/10

 

Aberdeen City Council's website has ranked first in the top 50 best local authority websites in the UK. The independent study carried out by Site Morse tested more than 400 authority sites for a range of functions including compliance, performance, accessibility and code quality. The checking process is rigorous, testing the sites on hundreds of technical criteria.

 

The council's e-Government Manager Ian Watt is delighted with the recognition. He said: "This is our highest ever placing in the league table, having been in the top 20 for 10 straight months to January 2010.” "I am further pleased to note that this is the first time a Scottish authority has made it to the top slot. This ranking is testament to the hard-working team that puts huge effort in to ensuring the consistently high quality of the site."
