announcements module

How the announcement module works. Did you know that Google likes websites that are updated frequently? The announcements module is perfect for this. Archiving also helps you build depth and history within your site.

using the dotnetnuke announcements module

The Announcements Module produces a list of simple text announcements consisting of a title and brief description.
Options include a "read more" link to a file, tab or other site, announcement publish date and expiration date.

One of the very cool elements of the DotNetNuke Announcements module is that it has a combination of 'set and forget' functions, and trackable links to pages, files and urls. Although the modules and page settings in later versions of DotNetNuke allow for the 'expiry date', the fact you can track the activity of the actual event is very helpful.

The archiving functionality of the module also allows you to build depth within the site, keeping it there for search engine purposes and creating a series of dates that help build 'maturity' on websites.

All of these helpful elements work at giving your site better search engine rankings.
