Web Committee 2014 Report

The Web Committee has prepared the following contribution to NASPA's 2014 collection of reports on committee activity.

This has been an unusually busy year for the Committee. In addition to our day-to-day role of providing IT services to the rest of the association, maintaining our online web presence and its infrastructure, our major projects this year were as follows:

• Server-side support for a soon-to-be-released NASPA app
• More generally, a secure REST API for developer access to NASPA databases
• Relaunched the NASPA Store to sell tiles and OTCWL2014
• Creating and maintaining other new members services: 30 services created or updated
• Defended webserver against specific security threats
• Started tracking where new members say that they heard about NASPA: Google ad 0.6% Scrabblegrams 0.6% Board insert 1.1% Facebook ad 2.3% News story 2.8% Don't know 15.3% Other 21.0% Online search 27.8% Word of mouth 28.4%
