Warwickshire Police News Portal Plays it's Part

Warwickshire Police's Online News Portal, which has become the primary e-communications channel for the Force, has this week faced extraordinary demand after the media coverage of the murder of a motorcyclist on the M40 motorway in South Warwickshire.

Demand peaked as CCTV footage showing the victim was released on the site on the 20th of August. Within minutes, hits to the site had increased ten-fold.

All of the public Warwickshire Police force websites are built and hosted by Netsight. Our experience with high-performance systems and our rapid response ensured that the site held up so that this vital information remained available, and the media exposure could be harnessed to maximum effect.
