Kentucky.gov (www.kentucky.gov), the Commonwealth's official Web portal, has provided 24/7 access to state government information and services for Kentucky citizens and businesses since 1998. Recently recognized as one of the best state government websites, the portal offers more than 1,000,000 pages of information and hundreds of interactive services. Kentucky.gov provides a comprehensive, continuous and easy-to-search website designed to give you a centralized place to find and access government information and services.
Kentucky.gov's self-funded business model has allowed the Commonwealth of Kentucky to provide a wealth of eGovernment services without the use of appropriated tax dollars. Kentucky.gov is unique in that it's a model for cooperation. It is a government service administered for the good of the public, while benefiting from the entrepreneurial spirit and efficiencies found in private business - a true Public-Private Partnership.
The Commonwealth contracts with Kentucky Interactive, LLC to host, build, maintain and market the Kentucky.gov portal. Primary funding for the portal comes from the assessment of modest enhanced access fees for a select set of commercially valuable services. Services that serve the public good and are traditionally offered at no cost may also be offered free through the portal.
