Faculty and staff members that wish to have a website at SUNY Cortland have two primary options which are detailed below. For some faculty however, a more completed entry in the campus directory may be an adequate solution as opposed to creating a full-fledged website.
WordPress
The most common option for faculty is a SUNY Cortland hosted WordPress website. WordPress is a popular tool that simplifies the process of updating webpages and requires little or no knowledge of HTML. General support is available to faculty and staff for basic site set up and maintenance.

Custom Web Page Solutions
Outside of SUNY Cortland's hosted WordPress, some consulting on custom web sites and third-party hosting solutions is available. Support for custom faculty websites is very limited. If significant custom web development work and support is needed, a
custom development project request should be made.
Campus Web Policy
Faculty websites are required to adhere to the campus web policy. In particular, section VII Personal Webpages.
