Streamlined content, multi-sourced search,
geocoding among key highlights of the new mobile-friendly site
With the goal of streamlining the way that
citizens of the Commonwealth access government resources and
interact with agencies and elected officials, Kentucky State
Government launched a new Kentucky.gov website earlier this
month.
The site now features streamlined content, multi-sourced search,
local government and legislation integration, and geocoding
capabilities in a dynamic and mobile-friendly fashion.
“Improving the user experience of Kentucky.gov provides more
open and increased accessibility to state government resources and
officials, allowing us to better serve Kentuckians,” said Finance
and Administration Cabinet Secretary Lori H. Flanery.
The new Kentucky.gov provides optimized search results, with
corresponding agency and service cards. Results also highlight
local, geotagged content in a responsive design that automatically
adjusts to any device. Dynamic content is presented in a quick and
compliant coded manner, ensuring that the site is fully accessible
across the broadest range of Web browsers.
“The new Kentucky.gov makes it easier for users to search for
and find information,” said Jim Fowler, Chief Information Officer
of the Commonwealth of Kentucky. “A new helpful feature is
geocoding, or using a person’s current location, which will
maximize user efficiency and experience to locate services close
by.”
Kentucky.gov provides eGovernment content for more than 375
state agencies, boards and local governments, and offers more than
300 eGovernment online services.
The state’s official website was redesigned at no cost to
Kentucky taxpayers through a public-private partnership between the
Commonwealth’s eGovernment partner, Kentucky Interactive LLC., a
subsidiary of NIC and the Commonwealth of Kentucky.
