How does it work?

Your own WordPress site which ranks highly in search.

The personal publishing service provides staff the ability to record their thoughts, opinions or news on a publicly viewable web space without the need for any technical knowledge.

Sites are commonly used to share information, useful links, media, examples or experiences.

The benefits of hosting your site internally include higher search rankings from the ncl.ac.uk domain, a fully-managed WordPress platform and a robust IT infrastructure.
