Content hosting
Reach your target audience by using HortInfo to host your content.
Our Govern- ment and institution- al clients deliver their material to the various horticulture sectors effectively and efficiently by using our content hosting service.
You can link to specific items (e.g. a calculator) or groups of items (e.g. irrigation factsheets) from your site to form a seamless experience for your site's users.
We wrap these content feeds with your site's look and feel and navigation so that your users are essentially unaware they are viewing content from another site.
Our factsheets automatically detect your users and dynamically inject examples and additional information specific to your users into the core factsheets.
Conventional training programmes are enhanced by providing participants with online information, reviews, multimedia facilities and review tools.
We provide a secure space in HortInfo in which you can:
- upload documents
- access and arrange HortInfo content to complement and reinforce your face-to-face training
- present video of the training event (contact us for a price to shoot and preview a video record of your training event), and
- provide quiz-based or survey-based assessment applications for your participants.

If you have important information for the horticulture industry and need a distribution point for that information, HortInfo can help you.
Through our content feeds service with the major industry sectors, we can easily present your material in their sites.
You can focus on creating and updating your content - we can distribute it to the people who will most benefit from it.
