Oregon Business
launches new website
Portland, Ore. – Using the venue of the highly successful
and well-attended 100 Best Companies to Work for in Oregon
event, Oregon Business
magazine publisher Gillian Floren formally announced the launch
of the magazine’s new website at www.oregonbusiness.com.
The new website is a resource which expands upon the content of
the print magazine by offering frequently updated news items
from all around the state of Oregon. There are
twenty-four different news categories, covering areas from
agriculture and forestry to high tech and tourism, and
providing a complete view of the state of business in
Oregon. News content comes in the form of feeds from more
than thirty state and national media outlets.
The Oregon Business magazine website was designed to provide a
wealth of information about the state of Oregon in an
easy-to-use format. A design model that aims to put as
much visible content as possible on the front page of the site
replaces traditional navigation bars along the side of the
page. In addition to the news content available on the
front page, users may also read current and past issues of
Oregon Business
magazine, check out the results of Input surveys, and view
graphs and tables on the state of local economies.
“Our goal for www.oregonbusiness.com
is to create a comprehensive business news resource for
Oregonians,” says Floren. “Traffic on the
site has been growing steadily since we announced the launch,
so it looks like we’re succeeding!”
