Link to Appropriate Cross Agency Portals,

Saturday, October 18, 2008

Link to appropriate cross-agency portals when applicable, to guide the public to additional resources that exist across the U.S. government. This is a best practice for managing your agency's website.

Links to cross-agency websites can supplement or eliminate the need to create information on your website. Links to other government information can guide visitors to additional resources to help them find what they need. This is especially important for federal public websites since many visitors do not know the organizational structure of the government and may need additional assistance to locate the information or service that best meets their needs.

Links to portals also help visitors get to the most authoritative, current source for the information. It's much more efficient for you to link to information that someone else is keeping current than to have to recreate that information and keep it up-to-date yourself.
