SiteImprove

What is this?

Siteimprove is an all-in-one software that helps you perfect your digital presence and fix or improve accessibility, SEO, content quality, security issues, and more. UC now has a systemwide contract for the Siteimprove web accessibility review tools, which are available to everyone at UC. 

Use of this plugin tool requires you to already:

  • have a SiteImprove account (email siteimprove@ucdavis.edu to request one), and;
  • have your site(s) listed in your SiteImprove account as being accessible to you.

Implementing SiteImprove on your site

  1. If you are a Site Builder, you can go to Manage » Extend and search for the "Siteimprove Plugin' option in the list, check its box, and scroll to the bottom to click Install.
  2. If you are a Site Manager, use our Service Request Form to have the SiteFarm team install the module for you.
Using SiteImprove

Once installed and after an approximate wait of 24 hours to allow the service to crawl and analyze your site, you will notice the SiteImprove logo ribbon along the right side of your screen. Presently the ribbon isn't functioning as intended, so please login at https://siteimprove.ucop.edu, then choose the UC Davis campus and sign in with your Kerberos ID for Single Sign-On (SSO) authentication.

After you log in, a member of the SiteImprove team will be able to update your profile settings and add the site so you have access to the accessibility report. Take time to review the Siteimprove Overview video on AggieVideo and consult with the SiteImprove team at siteimprove@ucdavis.edu if you have additional questions.
