In this thread would like to analyse websites of different Islamic organisations, I do not want to restrict this to websites only but to the general online presence of Islamic organisations.

Islamic organisations would mean an organisation representing Muslims constituents, or students, or charity organisation, or research and publication, etc.

Examples would be websites of Dar al-'Ulums, Jami'ats, Dar al-Iftaas, etc.

Let us give credit where credit is due to those who have a fantastic online presence :alham: and point out in a respectable way where others are lacking.

After all, this is the era of online communication.

Content Heavy
Not appealing
Navigation is difficult
They could do much more,
Site could be more prominant,
Make available Services since they are THE leading org in atleast 3 provinces (though this site represents the Gauteng base)
Hilal announcements could be give much more PR on the site. I find that they only update the Hijri date 2 or 3 days after the moon has been sighted (In fact they last updated the Hijri announcement in 2011)

Further points:

Economic/Islamic indicators hardly updated (last update was on 26 April 2012!)
Several dead links, top menu bar
No new material/articles (last article concerns Ramadaan and dates back to 2010)
Old logo still used considering that the new logo is reflected on Masjid posters, etc

If anyone knows how to bring this up for the attention of the Jamiatul Ulama SA, please let us know or direct them to this link.

At the same time - Jamiatul Ulama KZN has a nice new website which got launched in this week. The link is http://jamiat.org.za

Shaykh Ubaidullah Boja would be the man to handle this kind of query
