Yogyakarta – Region V Higher Education Service Institute organizes technical guidance in the management of the LLDIKTI website V for the Higher Education website admin (5/22). The event which was held in the main courtroom of the LLDIKTI Regional Office V presented Dyan Galih Nugroho Wicaksi, an information technology activist focused on the web and mobile, as well as cyber and mobile security.
The event began with a report from Aswan Komantara, SH as the Chairperson of the Panita and continued remarks and exposure to the Head of LLDIKTI Region V, Prof. Dr. Didi Achjari, S.E., M.com., AKT who conveyed the focus of this activity so that universities can display information as clearly as possible on the page that is owned so that the public can directly access the information needed. During this time many outside parties such as Ombudsman, students to the general public who are still looking for information related to universities such as accreditation, study programs, etc. through LLDIKTI Region V.
Followed by the presentation of the resource person, Dyan Galih Nugroho Wicaksi, who conveyed the use of information technology to revive the campus. Some points delivered by speakers related to the management of a website not on a good website appearance problem or not, but how a website describes the identity of the college (characteristics of the university) by displaying information as clearly as possible. A good website is that the content is always updated, not on its appearance. No matter how good the website is but not updated the content, it will not be visited (useless).
Furthermore, the resource person said that the media dissemination of information is not only through the website, so that universities are expected to also have social media such as LinkedIn, Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter as a medium for disseminating information. The advantage of having social media for tertiary institutions is to be able to see feedback from people who access social media. By utilizing tools and features on social media is also a time efficiency because one information can be shared directly to several social media at once.
Website managers must also access Google Analityc to see feature bounce rates. The higher the bounce rate, our website can be said to be unattractive. Visitors only open the website’s start page without opening or reading other content, and vice versa. The website should also be designed mobile friendly because the current trend is more accessing online information via mobile phone. Making a website is not merely just to display the information they have, but also must pay attention to who the audience is from the website. News on the website should be made categories so that the audience can immediately find the content to be accessed.
Some other things that can be learned for the college web admin are website content that does not have to be made by the website manager, another thing that can be done is to use the contributor so that the website is always updated . Examples of contributors to the college website are students, lecturers and alumni. As well as utilizing Google Trend to compare the trends of a topic because it can be used as a filter for what news website managers can be displayed on the web. Utilization of the right Google Trend also has the advantage of our website will be in the Top Rank Search Engine.
The event ended with an account giving to the Higher Education Web Manager as a contributor in filling the news content about his tertiary institutions to be uploaded on the LLDIKTI WEB page V.
