2-Column Layout: [OHT Columns Block] This is an oft-requested layout that our engineering team has implemented: creating 2-column layouts in your newsletters with the OHT Columns Block. This block was initially designed to allow placement of a sidebar of display ads that are currently running on a website. However, you are not restricted to just using the OHT Ads Block with a main post block. In this quick demo we'll show how to ad a Single Post Block, along with an Image in the sidebar.

Not long ago, a memory on Facebook reminded me of a post I'd created in 2014: "Over the next three weeks, I'll be speaking in Minneapolis MN,...

The following guest column was contributed by our friend and partner Kevin Slimp of the Kevin Slimp Webinar Series. My friend, Kari, wrote to me from her newspaper in Indiana this morning. Her message reminded me of the questions I received daily when doing I.T. work for newspaper groups a decade or two ago. Her email went something like this: “The PDF file of this page looks perfect, but the printed version is missing letters in the subhead. We decided it’s just one of those questions to which we’ll never know the answer.” Fortunately, my memory still works well enough...

So what are Standard and Contextual search results? By default, our websites utilize Contextual Search Results. This means that when a visitor enters a term in the search box, the search results are displayed in a way that highlights the search term in the context that it is used in the article. For example, if you search for the term "large brown dog", your search results will display a list...

Our-Hometown is happy to welcome The Rappahannock Times to our platform as the latest publication to launch a new website through the Virginia Press Association's Digital Initiative program!

Our-Hometown recently installed several universal platform and plugin updates, some of which have changed the way that our tools look and function. The most notable change impacts the Customizer tool, which has been completely revamped to feature WordPress Blocks. You may recall that WordPress introduced Blocks several years ago with the Block Editor -- a faster and more flexible editing system that allows publishers to easily include widgets and special dynamic blocks within their content. Now, Blocks are being utilized within the Customizer tool as well. While you'll notice some big changes right off the bat, the principles of the...

When it comes to sending Newsletters on the Our-Hometown WordPress Platform, one of the most frequent requests we receive is for the ability to create a custom newsletter template that a publisher can reuse time and time again, only needing to make minor edits rather than construct an entire newsletter from scratch. This feature has been absent ever since the introduction of the Drag & Drop Composer, which replaced the old-school plain text and HTML-based newsletter templates -- until now!

But in my work with newspapers, I’ve worked with so many younger people that I sometimes feel like Yoda (for you Star Wars fans) to a sizeable group of up-and-coming publishers in our business. In addition to all these young publishers, I hear from regularly, I also hear from a lot of publishers who are retiring and moving on to enjoy the fruits of their labors and – as happens in many science fiction movies – and there are times when...

The WordPress Block Editor, sometimes referred to as the Gutenberg editor, is a powerful but easy-to-use visual editor that allows you to create attractive Articles and Pages using a series of content-specific "blocks." Each block has their own settings and customization options depending on which type of block is being used. Each different piece of a traditional text document -- headings, paragraphs, lists, images, etc. -- will have its own block to select, while many modern plugins also introduce their own blocks, such as GeoDirectory and GravityForms. Today, we're going to focus on the standard text editing blocks that I...

The following is a guest column contributed by Mr. Kevin Slimp, aka the "News Guru" and host of the Kevin Slimp Webinar Series. It’s late as I write this column, just around midnight. There’s nothing unusual about that. I tend to write my columns, stories, and books late in the evening. Apparently, that’s not the norm for most famous writers in history. Maybe I should take a clue from them. Most famous writers, it seems, were like Ernest Hemingway, waking up as soon as – or before – the sun came up to write while their creative juices flowed, and...

As a news publisher, it's natural to want to get as many eyes on your newly published content as possible, but how can you make sure that only those who've paid for access are able to read it? In the age of Netflix and other content streaming services, account sharing has become a natural way of life for many digital consumers -- is there any way to stop it? Fortunately, the answer is yes! At Our-Hometown, we have the ability to limit the number of active sessions a user has at any given time -- or in other words, limit...

The news publishing industry is an ever-changing landscape, and with all of the added uncertainty that the pandemic introduced to the scene, it is no secret that many newspapers world-wide are still trying to cope with the ripple effects. Many newspapers have reduced the size of their news teams, and the remaining employees have been burdened with picking up the slack. In speaking with publishers, several have noted that they are barely finding time to post their stories to the website due to all of the other added responsibilities they've taken on. We felt it would be an opportune time...

Redesigns. They’ve been on my mind a lot lately. When Ed Henninger, the undisputed guru of newspaper and magazine design, decided to retire three years ago (I never really thought he was serious), we had several conversations about his decision. I’ll never forget when he told me he was “done.” “I’m closing down my website. I’m getting rid of my Adobe software subscription. I’m going to give my large page printer to you. When I retire, I’m not looking back.” I asked who would take his place. “They’re all yours,” he said. Like a lot of you, I stay busy....

Most customers on our WordPress platform are already utilizing the Title and Description fields via the All in One SEO plugin, but some of our long-time customers who migrated to WordPress from our old Drupal platform may be lacking this information.

Email marketing can be a powerful tool for generating new revenue for a newspaper or website, generally by appealing to new subscribers with a preview of your content and inviting them to subscribe. However, a lot of newspapers overlook the importance of appealing to former subscribers -- many of whom are even more likely to subscribe under the right circumstances. Our Automated Newsletter Coupons feature aims to do just that by automatically inserting a coupon code into each newsletter that is sent to a former or expired subscriber, inviting them to re-subscribe at a reduced promotional rate. Here's how it...

Nowadays, most publications with an online presence allow visitors to subscribe to an email newsletter to receive important updates and breaking news, even if the visitor isn't yet ready to become a paid digital subscriber. The goal is to build a list of newsletter subscribers that are essentially "leads" -- people who were interested enough to join your free mailing list and receive your emails, but haven't committed to paying for a subscription. These leads are generally much more likely to convert to paid subscribers given their existing interest in your newsletter, and can be targeted with special offers or...

Throughout the Co-VID-19 pandemic, we've learned that people look more to their local news for updates on the virus, local closings, delivery services, and the like. People trust local news. An increased concern for personal health placed people at home rather than at the usual gyms and offices; people spent less time in their vehicles or on mass transit. And, even without the pandemic twist, people need variety. Let's face it - sometimes we're just not in the mood for music! Enter Audio Articles. Juggling dinner and homework while keeping up with the constantly breaking local news headlines became that...

Don’t tell anyone, but I must be older than I look. I started offering online training long before most people knew such a thing existed. 20 years ago, I worked with a production company in Indianapolis that hosted and produced my monthly webinars for newspapers. It was quite the production. My favorite part of each webinar was when the announcer would introduce me by saying, “And now, coming to you from his LAVVISSSHHH studio in Knoxville Tennessee…where the sun is shining, and the temperature is 78 degrees…it’s the news guru himself, Kevin Slimp!.” I paid dearly for their help, but...

Last month, news began circulating online warning readers that some of their internet-enabled devices may stop working after September 30th, 2021. Now that the deadline has passed, we wanted to make sure our publishers were aware in case they get complaints from readers who are unable to access their website. The reason is quite technical, and ultimately has to do with the expiration of Let's Encrypt's root certificate. As a result, many web browsers and devices will no longer trust certificates issued by Let's Encrypt. TechCrunch.com has published an informative post with more details about Let's Encrypt, their certificate, and...

Here at Our Hometown, we try to stay on top of the latest developments when it comes to online newspaper publishing. In this News Brief, we're highlighting a piece by Mark Jacob over at the Northwestern Local News Initiative which conducted interviews with publishers about the ways dedicated news apps have impacted papers' subscriber engagement. The article, "Local News Outlets Upgrading Apps and Battling App-rehension," discusses the ways news apps keep readers coming back and give papers a consistent reader-base. While dedicated apps still don't make up the majority of where news is read, they still play a major role...

Our-Hometown has made the difficult decision to end our relationship with our e-mail service provider, Rackspace. The quality of service of Rackspace has degraded over the past year to the point where it is no longer a viable service. Emails are no longer being delivered reliably and Rackspace has refused to allow communication from the website server to their email service. They are unable, or unwilling, to resolve numerous issues that have caused us and our customers frustration while wasting all of our time. We have decided to leave Rackspace and move our-hometown.com’s email to Google Workspace. With this change,...

Last week, Grant Hamilton of Neighbor-to-Neighbor News -- the publishing group behind the East Aurora Advertiser and several other community newspapers in the Western New York region -- published a new podcast episode that we feel perfectly exemplifies the use of audio technology in the news publishing world. (You may remember Grant from the Industry Interview we published just a couple of weeks ago, where he detailed his experience with our platform and his vision for the future.) Grant authored his article in a first-person point of view, knowing that this particular piece of content would only be published to...

Google recently announced that they are changing the way they share content through the Google News program, and it could have big impact on the traffic your website is seeing. Traditionally, Google News has used RSS feeds to collect news content from news publishers and render it directly within the Google News application or on Google's website. While this resulted in more eyes on the shared content and perhaps some brand exposure, most of the readers viewing the content never actually visited the website where the content originated. In a sense, publishers were trading their pageviews for the perceived exposure...

Our-Hometown has recently released a small but powerful update that allows publishers to manually send out Push Notifications to their iOS or Android App users from the website at any time. While the general Push Notifications feature has existed for some time, it was previously configured to send out a Push Notification only when an article is published, and only when it belongs to a particular category. This new, manual approach allows publishers to be much more selective with the type of content they push out to their mobile application users, as well as with what time their notifications are...

In this episode of Office Hours, the Our-Hometown team demo event submissions with Gravity Forms, preview a NEW feature: audio article playlists, discuss an article by PC Magazine on email marketing, and make a special announcement on our upcoming webinar with E&P on "Serving the Growing Mobile Audience."
One way that local newspapers differ from larger, digital-based news outlets is their focus on the communities and neighborhoods that they cover. Newspapers, of course, help their residents stay up to date on the latest news and happenings -- but they also help their residents stay up to date on each other by publishing Milestone Announcements submitted by the community. These Milestone Announcements can include things like Birth Notices, Engagement or Wedding Announcements, and congratulatory Anniversary messages. Many newspapers will publish Enlistment Notices to recognize those who've enlisted to join our armed forces. Almost all newspapers include Obituaries and/or Death...

Back in February, the state of Texas was hit with a rare winter storm that brought snow, bitter cold temperatures and slick, icy roads to residents unaccustomed to such conditions. Power grids across the state failed due to the high usage of heat and energy, ultimately leaving as many as 3.5 million Texans without heat or power for several days. Caught in the middle of all of this were the local and regional newspapers forced to abruptly halt production due to blackouts, lack of resources, and the inability to travel due to the dangerous conditions. Even those newspapers who were...

If you work in the newspaper industry, you're probably already aware that most web traffic is now coming from mobile devices. The switch to mobile has been an internet-wide trend throughout the 2010s. However, our latest statistics show just how dramatic this shift has been over even the past couple of years. According to our platform-wide statistics, in 2018, our websites saw nearly 80% of online traffic coming from traditional desktop computers, with only 8% coming from mobile devices & smartphones, and another 12% coming from tablets or other in-between devices. Fast-forward to today. Last year, in 2020, our websites...

Newspapers have traditionally acted as a vessel for local businesses and advertisers to deliver these inserts to readers by including them inside the pages of the daily or weekly newspaper. The sudden emphasis on "digitization" thanks in large part to the COVID-19 pandemic has prompted many publishers to wonder whether there is a place for these inserts online. The answer is Yes, and...
