Placecube: navigating the CMS

The Sutton Council website

  • the Sutton Council website is designed for simplicity and accessibility
  • our research with residents has shown that they come to the website to get information or to perform an action, and often find images to be an unnecessary distraction
  • we aim to make our services easy to find and to create content that is easy to read and understand

Navigating council services from the home page

  • our website is designed to help users navigate council services easily
  • a full list of council services can be found on the home page by:
    • hovering over the services menu in the white header along the top of the page
    • browsing through the service menu tiles


 

Popular links 

  • at the top of the homepage and on each service landing page there is a banner that we call 'popular links' which displays the most visited or popular pages 
  • web authors can 'tag' any high transactional or seasonal content to this banner by tagging a page with the word ‘popular’
