Glossary of Terms
Client office:
Department, district, county, unit,
group, team or other CAES affiliate. The head of the client
office is ultimately responsible for content published on that
client office's Web site.
Site manager:
Person appointed to maintain the Web site.
This includes, but is not limited to: keeping current with link
changes, policy changes, requests for new material, supplying
feedback to users (or filtering questions to appropriate parties), grammar/spelling/time
accuracy and general upkeep.
This person will handle all communication between the client office and
the College Web Team. This person must learn to use Contribute
software and appropriate templates as provided by the Web team.
This person
must have a keen understanding of where
information is kept — not
necessarily how information is presented.
Content manager:
Person appointed to supply content
to the site manager. This person is responsible for keeping
content relevant, up-to-date and accurate, as well as supplying
feedback to users.
This person must have a keen understanding of the information being presented
(i.e. a cotton specialist would oversee content about cotton).
They are expected to represent their field of expertise.
