Regular maintenance is important because it keeps the website up to date. If the website provides links that visitors can click on, these links need to be checked for functionality on a regular basis, say Bitter and Legacy (2008). If visitors click on these links, and they do not function, this looks bad for the organizer of the website. Also, the website should be updated regularly to reflect current knowledge and practices. If the information presented is antiquated, viewers may not feel like the website is a reliable source for information. Teachers especially need to maintain their sites on a regular basis (those who have them). This will allow parents to be current on what is going on in the classroom. It will also aid in providing an open line of communication between school and home.
