Thanks to Tim for his comments which raise a question and it would be helpful for me to see some suggestions in answer from readers i.e. when looking at a general learned society website, what do you expect to see to guide you to the online article submission system? Would it be it a button named ‘authors’, or ‘journals’ or ‘online article submission’?
Further information: separate to this discussion on web page design, during the next year we will have an entirely new online submission and manuscript tracking pages for authors, editors, advisers and referees of our journals. Usage data from the current LMS website shows that most of the traffic is to and from the publications pages, so it’s important for us to get the paths right and all suggestions are welcome.
