A little history…
Overall scout websites have only a 26% survival rate per year.
Most of these websites are maintained by a single Web Master (administrator).
The Web Master driven website causes a bottle neck effect when it
comes to updating content and events. Then when that Web Master moves on to
other things the site eventually dies because nobody is there to take their position.
ScoutLander was designed to fix this problem by getting everyone involved in the beginning.
We have found that the best people to maintain website integrity are not the people who organize
the events but the people who rely on the information. The content is the responsibility of the leaders in
Cub Scouts and in Boy Scouts it is the boys themselves who take over website maintenance.
Depending on the size of your pack you may also want to give your parents the ability to update content
because they will become the future leaders and if they are familiar with the website this transition
becomes easier.
