Intranets

9. Making It Work

9.1 Make things on your intranet easy to find.

  • The user should never be more than three clicks away from the information.
  • Include a search page, so people can find what they want quickly. Most off-the-shelf packages and hosted solutions will include search as standard.

9.2 Keep the technical aspects of your intranet as simple as possible.

  • Look for the solution which is easiest to use while providing what you need.

9.3 Look for a solution with good content management features.

  • If it is easy to change content, your staff will be more likely to use the intranet.
