Sitemorse: Time for Transparency On Pricing
London, 25th April 2018 – Sitemorse, a leader in digital governance and content quality management, has decided to take the industry-first step of making its pricing information fully public.
Sitemorse’s CEO, Lawrence Shaw, said: “Our preference is to have clear, open communications and to ensure that interests are always aligned between all parties. That’s precisely why we want to make this information public, removing ambiguity and opacity in order to make the procurement of digital governance services fast, painless and easy. For individuals and organisations looking to boost their performance in governance, web quality (QA) and digital quality management, this can only be a good thing.”
Sitemorse has 3 Service Levels and core pricing packages, suitable for the varying digital landscapes that Digital Managers oversee. The common component across all services is the inclusion of Sitemorse’s Prioritisation Intelligence engine, which uses machine learning to identify where mistakes are being made and their likely impact in order to drive prioritised action. Sitemorse is passionate about moving the market away from endless reporting and to bring data science to Governance / QA.
At each service level, Sitemorse can provide assessments and prioritized actions, which can be accessed directly within the client’s CMS, via email or through the Sitemorse Dashboard.
The pricing hierarchy is based on the number of pages that the Digital Manager has within their control (across sub-sections, microsites, separate domains and pre-launch sites, or any combination of the above).

The number of social channels to be monitored (QA / Governance monitoring of social content) also plays a part in the Service Level that is purchased. It is also possible to have more than one Dashboard, should the organisation’s digital footprint warrant it.

Digital Reporter (Sitemorse’s entry-level service that competes directly with Siteimprove [www.Siteimprove.com], and provides an upgrade on their offering) – the key difference is that prioritisation intelligence is included as standard, as it is at all levels of service.
