It was an all request week on EDU Checkup, three sites all requested by users for public review. The first two were pretty average but the last could use a complete overhaul. My biggest pet peeve came out as a tip too, there is no need to have a “last updated” date viewable on a web page. Everyone has a different opinion of up to date content, and if they think it is even slightly out of date they will either pick up the phone or even click the back button to leave your site.

If you would like me to review your site or one of your competitors you can submit it on the Suggest a Site form. I can do a public or private review in case you don’t want to share your rock star success with the world.

• Virginia Military Institute (C-)
• Chesapeake College (F+)

Stay tuned to the @educheckup twitter account and RSS feed for more site updated in the coming weeks. Also if you have not subscribed to the iTunes feed yet its a great way to get new episodes automatically.
