Charleston biz journal redesigns Web site

November 3, 2008

The Charleston Regional Business Journal launched a redesigned Web site on Monday designed to focus more on breaking news.

A story on the paper’s site stated, “‘We know from comments and from watching how readers interact with our Daily Journal e-mail product that readers value breaking news and are interested in being the first to know what’s going on,’ CEO and Publisher Grady Johnson said. ‘The new site allows us to improve delivery of that information while maintaining and enhancing features available in our previous online efforts, to give readers and advertisers a strong online presence for business news and information in the Charleston area.’

“The Web address, www.charlestonbusiness.com, remains unchanged, and readers still will have access to more than 10 years of stories from the Charleston Regional Business Journal’s archives through the search function of the site.

“‘This is the first of many improvements we are planning to make over the next year to improve how we deliver news and information to our readers,’ said Managing Editor Andy Owens. ‘As of today, stories will change daily, and sometimes more often. We’re also going to allow readers to comment on stories, participate in online polls and interact more directly with reporters and editors.'”
