Town asking residents to take part in website navigation study

The Town of St. Marys is asking residents to participate in a navigation study for its new website. The online exercise tests the structure of the site to ensure information is easy to find.

The study takes about 8 to 10 minutes to complete and is available at www.townofstmarys.com/navigation. Participants will be asked to find a series of items from a list of links. For example, a user may be asked to find a copy of the Town’s seasonal swim schedule or zoning by-law.

Participants will then navigate through the list of links and choose the menu option under which they would look for the item. Each click a user makes provides insight that will be used to test the new site’s structure.

“There are no right or wrong answers in this study,” says Brett O’Reilly, Corporate Communications Manager. “Even if you’re unable to find an item, every guess provides us with valuable information to ensure our new site is user-friendly.”

The study is open until May 5, 2024. Questions about the study can be directed to Brett O’Reilly at 519-284-2340, ext. 432 or boreilly@town.stmarys.on.ca.
