Dear Subscriber !
Welcome to the September issue of EVISA's Speciation Newsletter.
Last month the EVISA server for the first time had more than 100,000 visitors, more than double the number than 6 month before. Such impressive growth is a reaffirmation of our continuous work to provide useful information in a most efficient environment.
While we are continuously working to add new information, update existing information and to improve the versatility of the website, we have started a major project to upgrade our service. Our first step in this project was the change of addressing our pages with "talking URLs", that means to put the title of a page into its address. Our second step happened at the beginning of this month: we changed the hardware of our server to a Quad-machine with 8 GB of RAM. We hope that you have recognized the enhanced speed of the new server. The next step will happen during the next few weeks. We will change the menu structure to improve the access to the content of the server, which meanwhile has surpassed 14,000 pages.
For the future steps we would like to get your feedback. Please tell us what you are missing, what type of information you are searching for but is not available on the server. Please send your hints and recommendations via our "contact EVISA" page.
We are looking forward to hearing from you !
