Priorities and Schedules for Posting Content
In compliance with Section 207(f)(2) of the E-Government Act of 2002 , the U.S. Small Business Administration has developed an inventory of information to be published on the Business.gov website, and established a schedule for publishing new information. In preparing this inventory, SBA reviewed information collected as part of the redesign of the Business.gov website, including citizen comments via e-mail, focus groups, usability tests, current website usage statistics, search statistics, and feedback from Business.gov partner agencies.
The table below illustrates the general categories of information currently shown on the Business.gov website, along with information planned for publishing in the future. It also identifies the priority we have assigned to the information, based on the categories shown in Section 207(f)(2) of the E-Government Act of 2002:
