What is Site Builder?

Site Builder is a do-it-yourself in-house web content management system that was developed by Marketing & Communications and Information Technology Services to make it easy for units to update and maintain a website that is consistent with Memorial University's brand and web standards. Site Builder permits quick updates without requiring special software or knowledge of web code, allowing units to focus on content instead of technology and design. 

What is the benefit of using Site Builder?

Site Builder allows you to clearly establish your page as a part of the university website. You can take advantage of high-quality images, page layout, features and navigation developed specifically for Memorial without investing time and money in design and programming. The system ensures your content stays current by notifying you -- at a date you choose -- when it’s time to review and update each page.

What is the cost for using Site Builder?

It is free to official Memorial departments and units.

How does Site Builder work?

Site Builder is located on a server managed by Information Technology Services. Once you make changes to a webpage, all data is saved within a database and published to the main MUN web server. As such, all your pages are backed up.

What is the unit user's role?

Creating good web content is critical to the development of an effective website. Web Content Services is here to help by providing advice and access to the right tools and resources.
