The Tinanggea Subdistrict website provides information and public services for the community at the subdistrict level and surrounding areas. However, the existence of a website must be supported by a good level of usability so that the information provided to users is conveyed properly. This study aimed to analyze the usability level of the Tinanggea Subdistrict website using a usability testing method. The research method used was descriptive with a task-based usability evaluation approach. Testing was conducted by involving eight people who were assigned as users of the website. The usability level was measured using the System Usability Scale (SUS) in the form of a questionnaire consisting of 10 questions. The SUS scores of each user were calculated and averaged to obtain the overall website usability score. The test results show that the Tinanggea Subdistrict website scored 51.1, indicating that it is usable but still not optimal. This study also shows that the website has implemented usability principles, especially in terms of ease of navigation and error prevention. However, the website still needs various improvements, particularly in terms of interaction efficiency, interface design consistency, and interactive service support, so that it can function optimally as a public service medium.
