The Office of Web Services will be launching a Search Engine Optimization (SEO) project in the beginning of February 2014. During Phase One of this project, Web Services will be reaching out to a select group of programs for benchmark testing and implementation. During this phase of the project we are asking any interested programs/departments to download and fill out the attached pdf and send it back via interoffice mail or email to courtned@canisius.edu. If it is determined that your landing page can benefit from SEO, your program/department will be placed into the queue for Phase Two. We will call your department to set up a short 15-30 minute meeting to discuss your landing page and our recommendations for optimizing.
Phase Two is preliminarily scheduled to start on March 1, 2014.
