Socitm survey highlights top local authority websites
The tenth annual survey of local authority websites published by Socitm show that four councils have achieved its full 'E' (excellent) site ranking - East Sussex CC, Gloucestershire CC, Salford City and Tameside MBC.

43 sites have been designated as excellent for content, but not usability. Six have been found to be excellent for usability, but not content. The total number of transactional sites has increased from 121 in 2007 to 165 in 2008, a slowing down after last year's record increase. These are spread reasonably evenly across types of council and across regions in England. There are now nine transactional sites in Scotland and four in Wales. Overall the survey shows 73% of sites are'Standard', 26% are 'Transactional' and 1% are 'Excellent'.
