Citizen feedback drives new design features
The State of Alabama is proud to unveil its new and improved
official website, Alabama.gov, introducing the most user-friendly
design yet. With the award-winning website’s sleek and simplistic
silhouette, visitors can easily discover useful local, state, and
federal government information.
Alabama.gov visitors expressed their opinions about changes for
the site; in return, the state listened and took action. Utilizing
visitor feedback and analytical data, the site’s homepage now
provides information on popular topics users want most. In
addition, visitors will be able to navigate through the site more
efficiently than ever before with enhanced menu options. Also, if
using a tablet or a mobile device, the Alabama.gov site conforms to
the size of the user’s screen, creating the best user experience
possible for visitors on the go or at home.
Among many other enhancements, the site features a geo-location
enabled map. This geo-location service, if enabled, will allow the
map to zoom in to the users’ current location, to see hospitals,
probate offices and State parks in their immediate surrounding
area, without having to move the map around to find their current
location. An animated weather conditions feature has also been
included in the re-design, and shows statewide weather conditions
along with a three-day forecast.
The Alabama.gov website was redesigned at no cost to taxpayers
through Alabama Interactive’s partnership with the State via a
competitively bid contract which allows the company to provide
eGovernment applications and services to state agencies, boards,
commissions, political subdivisions, local government agencies and
quasi-government agencies within the state of Alabama. Alabama
Interactive also works with more than 60 state agencies, managing
over 200 online applications through a self-funded model.
