Clearer, faster … scotsman.com unveils new, improved website

SCOTLAND’S leading newspaper website unveiled a major re- design yesterday – with a simpler, cleaner layout and an improved search function.

The revamped scotsman.com, which attracts more than two million unique users a month, includes improved navigation to allow users easier access to the latest editions of The Scotsman, Scotland on Sunday and Edinburgh Evening News. The site also makes it easier for readers to search the archives of all three newspapers – allowing readers to search for any articles dating back to 2003.

Web pages have been changed to include higher-resolution images and more links to related stories and Scottish topics of interest.

Online editor Stephen Emerson said: “ The switch to this new version will also enable us to keep developing new functionality and services in the coming months to ensure we provide our readers with the best possible service.

“The new, improved site puts us in an excellent position to move forward and showcase more of the quality journalism we have to offer.”

Previously registered users of scotsman.com are advised that they will have to reregister their details or reset their password.
