Even major companies are slow to update their Web sites, according to new research.

Research by content management firm Documentum found that major companies can be
slow to update their Web sites. The company surveyed Global 2000 companies, who 
together have a turnover of $1 billion.

Forty three per cent say they take up to a week to publish new material on their
Web sites. About 15% said they could do it in under a month, and 4% could update
a site within a fortnight.

Charities struggling to keep their Web content fresh should take some comfort in
these figures.
