Banned words for your website... but not on ours.

Following the recent announcement from the Local Government Association (LGA), regarding the numerous 'banned' words for Local Government websites - Sitemorse read the content of the LGA's own, public facing website and found that the banned list doesn't seem to be relevant for their own web presence.

A number of the banned words were found when looking at some of their website pages, worse offender being worklessness, which occurred nearly 100 times, other culprits included; spatial, framework, initiative.

As part of our content review module, we are able to quickly read the content of many thousands of web pages, looking for spelling errors, out of date product, organisation or service names, email or web address that are no longer in use, or as in this case read through the content and find words or terms that have been banned from use.

Sitemorse identified many instances of the banned words, its reporting details each occurrence down to the line in the code, allowing the website manager to quickly and efficiently find the word and make the relevant corrective action.

At no charge, Sitemorse Local Government clients who have the content review / spelling module, can have the banned words list from the LGA included in the regular audit. As part of this months Local Government Website Index, we will summarise the instances of the banned words.
