Top 5 Website Compliance Checks for Council Clerks in 2020
Latest Testimonial
“We required a better website solution for the Long Sutton Parish Council, and Nirvana Webstudio came highly recommended. The experience from initial contact to completion was completely stress-free and hands-off as they took care of everything. We are very impressed not only with the website’s modern and professional look, but with the ease in which we can manage the website from adding pages, editing content, creating news articles and uploading documents for download. The service was and continues to be outstanding – more specifically friendly, patient and very responsive. We have no hesitation in recommending the team at Nirvana Webstudio to other councils in need of a modern, professional and easy-to-use website.”

FAQs
Yes. All parish, town, borough and city councils need a compliant WCAG 2.1 AA rated website by September 23rd, 2020.
A: It would take more time and therefore cost more to convert an existing website rather than obtain a new website that’s based on an already-compliant design and framework.
A: Yes, or you can opt for a new domain name such as a .gov.uk web address and we can redirect your old site to your new domain.
A: Your emails can remain where they are if provided by a GDPR-compliant service, otherwise we can help you move them across.
A: The websites we create are based on a robust and tested framework, with many design elements you can place where you want. No two package websites will look the same as we create custom colour schemes for each client.
A: You are not responsible for another party’s website as it’s their responsibility to make sure it complies.
A: SSL stands for “secure sockets layer” and is a form of security for websites that encrypts data going between a user’s browser and the website server. For GDPR compliance, any website with a contact form should have an SSL.
A: No. The framework and servers are configured to be compliant and can’t be hosted on a different server.
A: It is an annual service.
