Article Search

We mainly offer contents in word format, and our purpose is to gather all relevant information about media ownership, thus the function of search is important. In this project, we plan to have a database after we complete our layout.

RSS Subscribe

Most of our readers might be advanced or unique visitors which means they visit often in a period of time. In order to have more interactions with them, we could offer the function of RSS Subscribing. On the other hands, sending our articles directly to visitors who don’t come could often recall them to pay attention on this topic.

Video Uploading

Because the topic of media ownership is on the spot, there must be some important or related speeches, forums and announcements occur everyday. Video clips could be collected by web managers or users.

What’s new

In order to display the latest news, we can pick the current news or events in this specific column. Five pieces of news on this column will be an ideal number.

Upcoming Events

As a website focus on public interests, we might cooperate with or participate in some other public events. Thus, providing the upcoming events in the center of page might be a good way to promote those events.

Put Comments

The value of every single opinion is depends on how many times it was been shared. The purpose of fighting for media ownership is to protect the independent speech. We encourage our visitors put their comments after reading the articles or viewing the videos.

** I notice that we said that no membership required on our website according to Ragan’s Success Metrics. Thus, should we save a space for users to sign up? Otherwise I have no idea how to track the author after they put a comment or upload a video clip. Maybe we can let general users read all they want to read free, and set up a simple sign up process for users who want to post or upload.
