Community newspapers like the CrossRoads are the backbone of Canada’s media industry. But we’ve heard from many of independent community newspaper owners about the challenges they face.

Readers are moving online, and you have to follow them. But how do you develop a digital presence without diminishing the viability of your print product?

The solution is simple.

Stop competing with yourself by replicating your print edition’s content online.

Instead, rebrand your web site as a separate section of your newspaper, providing added value to your readers with feature content (Travel Features, Auto Reviews, A&E, National News and analysis etc.), augmented with as little (or as much) local content as you desire (breaking news, photos, press releases, contests etc.).

Your website becomes the (online) section of your newspaper, with editorial content that wouldn’t necessarily appear in your print edition, provided and broadcasted daily by Troy Media.

As the best-known and most-used editorial content provider in Canada, Troy Media understand your needs. We also understand the stresses and strains you face.

Founded in 2005, Troy Media has grown to become Canada’s largest independent provider of original editorial features, opinions and analysis. Content sourced from Troy Media appears in dozens of newspapers, news sites, blogs and radio reports daily.
