Innovative solutions for news portals

Tuesday 30. December 2008 - A news portal must do one thing above all else: provide information. Always up-to-date and with a finger on the pulse.

Which is why the ability to adapt online information flexibly in line with changing requirements is so critical for providers of innovative portals. Rapid and straightforward inclusion of the latest imports and feeds such as printed articles or DPA is every bit as important as intuitive content management that eliminates the storage of duplicate data.

Moreover, comprehensive online reporting on modern portals also involves enhancing content with multimedia objects such as audio and video data as well as the automated assignment of relevant meta data such as geo tagging. The latter enables automated portal functions such as a catchment area search for articles.

The integration of user statistics makes the dynamic – which means that top-story rankings are automated.
