Web Development: UAF Roxen WCMS

NEW WEBSITE OPTIONS

Step 1: Pick a site design
Step 2: Add content to your new site
Step 3: Publish your new site (Go Live!)


Please note: We are mandated to recharge for UAF web development services. Therefore we have also created a good selection of free options for you to choose from, below.

The following options are listed in order of faster and cheaper.

WEBSITE Design Options

Option 1

Free

Pick an existing design and go live in a day or so

Choose one of the many existing UAF web site designs for your department. No recharge fees*.

Option 2

Choose one, have it tweaked, and get online quickly

The same as Option 1 except you wish to have our web developers make some quick, simple customizations to the look and feel of one of the predesigned UAF Websites (1-2 hours on average.)

Option 3

Bring your own design

You provide a mock-up of what you want your website to look like (or perhaps keep your existing site design) and hire our web developers to convert that design into WCMS Roxen.

Option 4

Custom website design

You prefer a totally different website design. Hire our web developers to create you a custom website design to meet your specific needs.

CONTENT Migration and Maintenance Options


Updating your web site (intellectual) content is probably the most difficult task of all, and will require some of your time to get it right.

Option 1

Free

Move and maintain your own content

Migrate content from your old site to your new site yourself. This is your opportunity to review and update your web site content.

Option 2

We can migrate your existing content; You maintain it after that

Some site owners don’t have staff or time available to move their content from their old site to the new site. You can hire us move your existing web content to your new site for the going recharge rate. Your staff will maintain your website content after that.

We will still require time from you to work through and update your content. Please remember, we are migrating your words; we don't write them for you.

Option 3

Full Content Support : We migrate existing, and add updates you provide

If you don't have the staff and/or time to move and to maintain your content, we can do it for you.

Please remember, we are migrating your words; we don't write them for you.

Adding and maintaining content in Roxen is pretty straight forward, and requires no knowledge of HTML, Dreamweaver or any other web development software. Most changes can be made right from your web browser.

OIT provides free training for UAF Roxen users.
