How did we get here?

In 2004 the government web went from a loosely coordinated collection of websites...

to something a bit simpler...

directgov

businesslink

A tremendous achievement, which brought enormous benefits, but it’s time to move on again

directgov

businesslink

The web is now mainstream

Users expect high quality service experiences

And businesses know how to deliver them

We’ve gone from this...

directgov

businesslink

directgov

businesslink

...to a single domain
