VOICE MEDIA GROUP ANNOUNCES NEW WEBSITE DESIGN WILL LAUNCH JULY 18
DENVER — Voice Media Group announced today that on July 18, its publication websites will launch a new website design. This launch will start with Denver Westword on July 18, with the rest of the publications following on July 25. These include Phoenix New Times, Dallas Observer, Miami New Times and New Times Broward-Palm Beach.
The revamp, the first since 2016, comes during a year when Voice Media Group has invested in digital growth strategies around content, social media, SEO, and membership. Editorial Director Chelsey Dequaine-Jerabek says it’s the perfect time to give both loyal and new readers a more modern, user-friendly website experience.
“We are excited to offer readers a refreshed experience to make our relationship with them even stronger,” says Dequaine-Jerabek. “Whether readers are finding us on social media, Google, or they have turned to us every day for their community news, this new website design aligns with the current digital landscape: with the user experience at the forefront.”
Other perks of the new site include an updated navigation, reduced pop-ups and slide-in video players that otherwise may have taken over a reader’s screen, and updated topics to better illustrate to readers Voice Media Group’s coverage areas. The design also is updated to be more aesthetically pleasing, with updates in brand colors, and event and concert widgets.
