New Responsive Website Launches for Baxter County Sheriff’s Office

 

MOUNTAIN HOME, Arkansas – Baxter County, Arkansas Sheriff’s Office is pleased to announce the launch of their new responsive website. The responsive website solution provides access to all features of the website, including inmate roster, press releases, most wanted, and sex offender information. The responsive design allows site visitors to access the information they want and need from any device with simple, flexible navigation. 

“Our website was created and launched in November 2007. Since the launch of the first website, we have introduced enhancements and new technology to increase the transparency of our office and to provide a 24/7 information source for county residents and visitors,” said Sheriff John Montgomery.  The website has also allowed the public to interact with the Sheriff’s Office and they have responded by providing hundreds of anonymous tips, giving us valuable information resulting in dozens of arrests each year. 

Montgomery continued, “Our goal with the website is to provide transparency between our office and the public. We want the public to understand how this office serves the community, residents, and visitors. We want our community members to have the information they need, when they need it. While the content of the website is the same as our previous site, the new responsive design allows users to more quickly and conveniently access the information on the device of their choice: desktop, laptop, tablet, or smartphone. In addition, the new site features a Site Search, which makes finding specific information much faster and easier for the site visitor.”

 

The Baxter County Sheriff’s Office website continues to grow in popularity. “We are eager to provide more information on a wider scale to our community members with this website upgrade,” stated Sheriff Montgomery. “In June this year alone, we had over 56,000 unique visitors, and so far in 2017 our website has received over 1.25 million visits. Each year we have consistently had more than 83 million hits and over 2 million visits to our website.” With Baxter County only having a population of roughly 42,000 people, we are more than pleased with our website’s success.

 Each day, more visitors are accessing the website using their smart phones, tablets, and other devices. The new responsive design provides a convenient way for the public to view important information from the Sheriff’s Office while on the go. This responsive technology broadens the scope of community policing efforts and improves the Sheriff’s Office’s ability to keep citizens informed.

 The new responsive website makes it easier to access from any device when visitors go to www.BaxterCountySheriff.com

 The Baxter County Sheriff’s Office recommends the community visit the new responsive website. Any feedback is encouraged and appreciated by the Sheriff’s Office “Please visit our improved website and send us any feedback that you may have through our Contact us Page,” said Sheriff Montgomery.

 Our website and this new responsive website was developed by Brooks Jeffrey Marketing, Inc., a national website, app, and marketing company headquartered in Mountain Home, Arkansas. They have proved to be a valuable partner utilizing their expertise in websites, apps, and integrated marketing solutions for law enforcement, and government offices.
