Site Tour: More About Searching and Newsletter Signup

2008 is truly a year of change at NWHS. We've grown our distribution by about 1500 copies per month, we've broadened our variety of columns, and of course, there's the new website. The funny thing is, we still have more content than we can fit into the magazine, and with the high volume of news being posted daily, sometimes it seems like it would be nice to have have someone go through it and pick out the most relevant bits, don't you think?


If you know what you want and you want it NOW, I recommend using the search box we added last week, or the one in the black strip at the top of each section on the site. What's the difference? The sidebar search covers the whole site, old and new, but it takes it a day or two to register newly posted items. The top search bar searches only the section of the site you're on (News, Articles, Blog) but it finds even the most recent postings. Which one is best? It's up to you.






If you'd rather have your news delivered right to you, again, you have options. Do you want all the news headlines delivered to your Internet home page or other reader software so you can click on anything you find interesting without having to search? Sign up for an RSS feed in the sidebar of the News page. There are also RSS signups for the Articles and Blog pages. Click on the Help button at the top of the sidebar if you want to learn more.


If you want just one or two news items that the NWHS staff members find the most relevant, plus horsekeeping tips, peeks at what's coming up in the magazine, early notification of contests and more, sign up for our semi-monthly newsletter. We're in the process of revamping that as well, and the first of the new edition newsletters comes out next week. Click the image below or its twin in the sidebar to use our simple signup form so you don't miss anything. As always, we'd love to hear from you.
