BACKSTAGE CONTENT MANAGEMENT

Much of your public PureSBDC website’s content changes frequently. This content is best updated by your staff, who are expert in such matters.

Your website content is managed via a secure, password-protected website called the “backstage”. The PureSBDC backstage requires no webmastering knowledge. Editing content is as easy as completing a simple, online form.

Backstage, Counselors create and recommend information resources, toolkits, and compasses. Intake Specialists organize Workshop resources, and approve new client “request for counseling” intake applications. Directors and others analyze client and staff activity reports, and look for ways to generally improve the quality of the resources and services. Staff can edit client, staff, and SBDC center contact information. Backstage, products can be added to your PureSBDC store.

WEBSITE STATISTICS & REPORTING

Your Backstage includes extensive statistical tools to report on all aspects of your website. Learn how much traffic your website receives, peak hours and days, and how long the visitors are staying. See how many times a particular client or staff member has logged in, and how many resources a given staff member has contributed. View a client’s resource history. Examine instant-poll results. Download Annual Survey responses.

BACKSTAGE AUTOMATION

Nightly, the backstage tests all weblinks that have been added as resources. Broken links are automatically unpublished, and flagged so staff can easily locate and correct them.

INTERNAL DOCUMENTS

Backstage contains this private, central repository for internal SBDC network-wide documents such as policy/procedures manuals, template files, branding manuals, logos, newsletters, and best practices articles.

DOCUMENT EXCHANGE

This feature sidesteps potential large email attachment limits imposed by many corporate and commercial email systems. Staff can upload a private file backstage, and an email containing a download link to that file is sent to the recipient. All files are scanned for viruses when uploaded. Uploaded files can be set to auto-delete after a given number of downloads, or after a certain date.

BACKSTAGE DISCUSSION BOARDS

These Discussion Boards are used exclusively for internal SBDC staff communications. The backstage discussion board works just like the one on your public website.
