EGOCMS Dark Site module in detail

With the dark site module in EGOCMS, companies and authorities can quickly and reliably switch to a prepared emergency website in exceptional situations.

A dark site is an independent microsite or a separate client that can be defined in the client settings of EGOCMS. As soon as a dark site is activated, visitors are automatically redirected to this special website.

  • Immediate activation in case of emergency - The dark site is displayed immediately when it is activated.
  • Flexible return to the main site - Visitors can return to the regular website at any time.
  • Crisis communication optimised - Ideal for emergency messages, maintenance pages or temporary operational changes.

Thanks to this function, your online communication remains structured and controlled even in critical situations - without affecting the regular website.

Dark Site
  • Dark Site Creation: The module enables the creation of a dedicated "Dark Site" area within your website that is activated in the event of a crisis or emergency.

  • Quick activation: The dark site can be activated with minimal effort to immediately provide important information and resources when a crisis occurs.

  • Customisable content: Administrators can upload and customise pre-prepared crisis information, updates and resources in advance.

  • Rapid response: In the event of a crisis or emergency, organisations or authorities can immediately provide relevant information to inform the public.

  • Effective crisis communication: The Dark Site enables efficient communication and information provision to ensure the safety and well-being of those affected.

  • Transparency and timeliness: Users can see at a glance what changes have occurred on the site since their last visit, which contributes to transparency.

  • Better preparation: Organisations can prepare the dark site in advance and ensure they are well prepared for unforeseen events.
