NEW WEBSITE IS FASTER AND EASIER TO USE

Today is the start of a new era for the Townsville Bulletin. As the paper nears its 140th birthday the organisation has launched a new website and it’s up and running today. For many of the paper’s long serving subscribers it may take a little time to get used to but we guarantee after a few weeks you won’t want to go back.

The new Townsville Bulletin website unveiled today is the most significant change to the online environment in years.

The upgrade will make the website world class giving readers a news experience that is faster than ever before, less cluttered and easier to use.

We’re unapologetically local at the Townsville Bulletin with a focus on bringing North Queensland all the news that matters to them 24 hours a day seven days a week.

We also care deeply about what you want from the region’s number one news service and we’ve listened to you. Putting the website together we’ve spent hundreds of hours interviewing our readers about what they want from their local news service.

....you wanted speed, we delivered

You wanted speed, we delivered.

You wanted to find content more easily, we’ve responded.

And you asked for more relevant content to where you live. Well, now with the simple task of entering your region you can tailor your content to the way you like it.

So, make yourself comfortable in your new digital home and check it out for yourself online today.

I’d love to know what you think and will be continually improving the website based on your feedback.

Thanks for your ongoing support and I hope you enjoy your new and personalised digital reading experience for many years to come.

And just because we’ve unveiled a new website doesn't mean we have forgotten the paper version of your local news.

It’s getting bigger and better too.
