What You Get With Web Services

• A website built in a Drupal Content Management System (CMS) tied to the Buckeye UX (BUX) Design System
  • A CMS means you do not have to have any coding or HTML knowledge to effectively manage your website. If you can work in Microsoft Office, you can build a website with a CMS.
  • The use of BUX means that you are compliant with Ohio State Brand and will be consistent with other websites across the Ohio State web ecosystem — providing a seamless experience for users outside of the university.
  • Updates to both the CMS and BUX are managed on the backend by the service — you do not acquire that technical debt of staying compliant with the newest updates.
  • The CMS has ADA approved templates and uses editoria11y — a tool to check for accessibility issues page by page as you’re building.
• Training on use of the CMS and ongoing support
  • You will receive training prior to beginning to build your site — and support through the process.
  • Once you have launched, you are not on your own. You can reach out to our support team with questions any time during business hours.
• BUX/Design review from designers immersed in the BUX/Design experience
• Accessibility evaluation from an Ohio State certified evaluator that will be shared with the Accessibility Coordinator of your department/center
• Access to Siteimprove for ongoing maintenance of the accessibility, SEO, and quality assurance of your website
• Access to a Tableau dashboard citing web statistics pulled from Ohio State’s Google Tag Manager instance
