- Review and approval of your web content and page by your dean, manager or supervisor may be required prior to posting.
- eCommerce and other interactive services must be thoroughly tested by the author and other parties prior to posting. In addition, Web Coordination Team members must be satisfied that your site is functional before it is posted.
- External link requests must meet at least one of the below criteria and may be reviewed by the Web Coordination Team to determine appropriateness for posting.
- nonprofit sites must provide meaningful, accurate information to students, employees and the general public that is directly related to the college's purpose and mission;
- commercial site link requests will be considered only for organizations or services that have significant partnerships and/or provide important support or unique information to the college and/or its students;

Links to external pages that do not meet MATC guidelines and standards will not be permitted and will be removed when reported or discovered. If a link is found in violation, the link will be removed. MATC is not responsible for the accuracy, content, currency, completeness, or availability of information to non-MATC pages and site links.
- Advertising is not allowed on public, instructional or employee pages of the MATC Website. MATC pages are not to be used for subject matter unrelated to the college or for personal gain.
- For technical and communication purposes, it is best to create awareness for one web address and to drive visitor traffic through a central homepage. When referencing Web information in marketing materials, the college will publish the address for its homepage and provide further directions as necessary to specific underlying pages.
The MATC Website design allows users to navigate throughout the site and perform a site "Search" and "Advanced Search" from every page. The MATC Website has been organized with common categories like "Get Started" and "Student Resources" so that first-time users can easily get to the information they need. It is a benefit to users to direct traffic through the homepage so that they can see all options available on the site and gain general information about the college.
- The spellings of many new web and technology-related terms have not yet become standard in the English language. Until an accepted standard is established, we endorse the use of uniform spellings on our website and in other publications and communications. For more information see the Web Style Guide.
