Each of these models has advantages and disadvantages; the local need and available resource helping to shape the most appropriate response. Keys to the Past creates a legacy overhead for new or changed records. In Warwickshire, while the records are less readable it is easier to synchronise public and professional records, ensuring the currency of public-facing information. There is also a pedagogical difference between them. One teaches the technical vocabulary of the historic environment to provide access; the other provides access by hiding the technical vocabulary. These important considerations are only properly resolved by understanding the needs of the intended primary audience and the uses to which they will put the information they find in the HER. (For a discussion on the use of online HERs in teaching and learning see Kilbride et al 2002, Kilbride and Reynier 2002)

Several national organisations have established web sites that act as gateways to information about archaeology and the wider heritage, for example the CBA, the ADS, English Heritage (including the English NMR) and RCAHMS. These sites have the potential both for making resources publicly accessible and for creating links between websites thus adding value to the service provided.

A voluntary system of registration forms part of the site but is not necessary to gain access. The site is free to use whether registered or not. However the advantage of registration for the user is that more detailed mapping is available to them. By October 2004 over 750 people had registered on the site, providing their email address, name and location as well as a reason for using the site, selected from a drop down list. Registration enables the HER staff to monitor use of the site and evaluate performance and demand. In June 2004, for example, 1,159 people in total visited the site and of these 810 visited once and 349 more than once. (see panel 13). No HER information, with the exception of personal information covered by the Data Protection Act regulations, is withheld.

There has been a very positive response to the website both from members of the public, heritage professionals and HER staff. The profile of the HER and the group as a whole has become much more prominent with many mentions on local websites, in local publications and in all forms of the media. Undergraduate students at Southampton University have described the site as 'user friendly', 'very concise, easily manoeuvrable', with 'the greatest degree of accuracy and thoroughness' (Schofield 2004, p.11)
