I like data (have you noticed yet?) - So following on from the Localgov page speedy thing, the list of new Locagov sites, and Localgov beta websites. I’ve hacked together another script to bring you local government trendy words.
Scanning the content for all 430-odd council websites, I’ve compiled a chart for the number of times key phrases appear on council homepage:
| Phrase | % of homepages |
|---|---|
| Report it | 47% |
| Do it online | 29% |
| Top task(s) | 20% |
| Pay it | 19% |
| Frequently Asked… | 18% |
| Quick links | 15% |
| Find my nearest | 14% |
| Popular tasks/topics | 8% |
| Straight to | 8% |
| Highlights | 7% |
As with everything else the code for the scripts we used to get data are on github if you want to hack together something your self.
