Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Review Method: Peer Reviewed Abstract: Electronic government is growing as an important strategy in many countries around the world. There is a great variety of e-government applications and one of the most pervasive is government-wide websites. Websites have the potential to improve service delivery, internal operations, and democratic relationships between governments and citizens. However, our current knowledge about their main characteristics and success determinants is fairly limited. This paper explores how different organizational, institutional, demographic, political, and economic factors affect the functionality of state government websites in the United States. Preliminary results from a PLS model suggest that some factors such as organizational characteristics and web management practices have a significant direct effect. Institutional arrangements, political orientation, and citizens’ demand also have an impact on the functionality of state websites, but their effect is indirect. For instance, citizens’ demand affects the functionality of the state websites by its impact on managerial and institutional factors. Both case studies showed respondents perceived citizens’ expectations as the most important influence on website functionality. Therefore, citizens’ demand seems to play an important role in shaping the functionality of state websites, but its mechanisms are not well understood and additional research is needed.
