Coming to Challenge.gov in January: "Win a Free Website Usability Test" Video Contest

Submit a video (two minutes or less) addressing why your federal website or web application is a good candidate for a free usability test. We want to see a creative video explaining the importance of your site, the problems you think need fixing, and a creative push for why we should pick you.
Your site must be a public-facing federal .gov or .mil website
Your team must work with First Fridays to plan the test
Your site stakeholder or designee must observe a First Fridays test
If you win, your site stakeholder must attend your usability test
Start planning your video now, and look for the "Win a Free Website Usability Test" Video Challenge announcement on January 23.

Background: The GSA First Fridays Product Testing Program has tested over 25 government websites in the past year and a half. After a morning of in-depth testing with real website customers, we collaborate over lunch and identify a path forward that includes quick-fix solutions to the top three problems.

Our goal is for you to make improvements to your site within 30 days of the test, and learn to do simple usability testing yourself. Small, easy changes can have a BIG impact on customer experience. 

To sign up to observe a First Fridays test, email FirstFridays@gsa.gov
