The new-look Cross Rhythms website is almost ready
THE Cross Rhythms website is to be re-launched by the end of the year
with a huge increase in material published, a complete redesign,
improved usability and with every article from Cross Rhythms magazine
being made available for free viewing.
With already an average of
40,000 global users per month, Cross Rhythms is renowned for its
comprehensive documentation and coverage of all Christian music. The
new website will maximise on this content with people being able to
find any articles, reviews and news stories written on an artist by
Cross Rhythms. Literally thousands of articles and reviews are being
added to the new website from the Cross Rhythms archives and in time
an estimated 10,000 reviews and more than 800 articles will be
accessible. In addition new contracts with overseas distributors will
mean that many CD titles currently deleted in the UK will be available
for purchase online from Cross Rhythms Direct.
It is not only the
music content of the site that is being expanded. With a new
positioning statement of Music & Life, the Cross Rhythms heart to
bring quality, spiritually astute and relevant life teaching will also
be strongly evident. Articles written by youth leaders, respected
church leaders and Christians of significant influence will be
regularly published.
Said Heather Bellamy, Cross Rhythms
marketing manager and website editor; "The Cross Rhythms website is
the centre piece to all of our activity at Cross Rhythms, displaying
in one place all that we do. We value giving our users the most
comprehensive and up to date Christian music content possible, while
at the same time giving them an environment where they can find God
and interact with each other. We're also placing a higher priority on
listening to our users' voice in the re-design making it far easier
for them to let us know what they want, what they like and what they
don't. It's about meeting their needs, whether that's for information,
teaching, prayer, relationship, interactivity or fun."
- The
Cross Rhythms website (www.crossrhythms.co.uk) will re-launch sometime
in December. An article about the new site will appear in the next
issue of Cross Rhythms magazine.
