Institutional Web Management Workshop 2010
Sponsors
The Institutional Web Management Workshop series provides an opportunity for members of institutional Web management teams within (primarily) the UK's higher education community to enhance their professional skills, to learn from their peers and to share best practices across the community.
The spirit of sharing is helped by the opportunity for social networking that is provided at this annual event.
The event is supported by a number of sponsors, both commercial and academic, of the event who help to contribute to the range of activities provided at the workshop.

Site Confidence
Site Confidence is the UK's leading
web performance testing company. If you have any
responsibility for delivering a quality online service, you should be talking to us. We
monitor millions of pages daily helping customers to prevent downtime, protecting their
brand and revenue streams. Whatever your web monitoring and load testing needs, ask Site Confidence.
Site Confidence Performance Monitoring services
Unreliable, slow web sites with incomplete pages & badly performing user journeys don't just damage your brand and reputation. They also directly impact on your revenue, as users who are dissatisfied with their online experience quickly swap to a better performing competitor. Site Confidence performance monitoring is an externally hosted managed service which requires no additional code, software or hardware. The test results are presented simply and clearly through a real time, portal-based dashboard. This makes it easy to identify performance issues that affect your users, so you can quickly diagnose and fix the problem.
Site Confidence Load Testing services
Some web site owners view load testing with a sense of dread: an often cumbersome, resource-hungry process involving expensive consultants or time-consuming internal solutions. Consequently load testing is often missed out from the development cycle, leaving sites vulnerable to failure when they are needed most. But it does not have to be that way. Site Confidence offers a load testing solution that is easy to set up, utterly configurable to your needs, and provides rapid, actionable results. All at a very affordable price.
Site Confidence have sponsored a prize for one delegate at the IWMW workshop (details to follow). The winner will benefit from Site Confidence’s external load testing services for websites and web applications, including the preparation of testing scripts through to a day’s testing during which the winner will be able to thoroughly test and re-test as many times as necessary. The test results will help ensure limits are known and weaknesses identified and quickly addressed, thus assuring a successful launch.
Exhibition
This year we will have a small exhibition in the refreshment area.
