Look for the Redesigned APS Web Site Coming in July 2003

    APS is proud to announce that a completely redesigned web site will be available soon. The new look was designed with the user in mind. We have added pop-up menus as well as department overview pages and quick links. APS’ goal is to make finding information on our web site as easy as possible for our users. 
    The popularity of the APS web site continues to grow. In 2001 APS averaged 681,00 hits per month and in 2002 we averaged over 940,000 hits a month, an increase of more than 38%. So far this year, APS is averaging over 1,000,000 hits a month. Also on the rise has been the number of distinct hosts to visit the APS web site. In 2001 there were an average of 18,435 distinct hosts and in 2002 the average was 29,548 distinct hosts, an increase of 38%. So far in 2003, APS is averaging 40,453 distinct hosts per month.
In our continuing efforts to make our web site user friendly, we added several new features in 2002 that include:

• Online payment system (APS Store, Membership Dues, and Publication Subscriptions)
• Legislative Action Center
• Mentoring Section
• Redesigned Careers Section

    All have been great successes and very well received.
    Please visit the APS web site often; we add new content daily. If you have any questions or comments, please forward them to the APS Webmaster at: webmaster@the-aps.org.
