AdaEveningNews.com – Serving Ada, OK, Since 1904

AdaEveningNews.comIt’s clear that when a paper makes all of its contents available online for free, its revenue base relies on ads, and if you need an example to illustrate this point don’t miss AdaEveningNews.com: after you’ve spent a good while taking a look at the gazillion ads needed to support the site you’ll be able to read about Ada (Oklahoma) local news, which get standard local coverage: weather, community, sports, leisure, etc.

Media galleries are available, as are reprint requests and RSS subscription features for individual sections. Readers of the print edition can log on to manage their account details and that seems to be all (there’s no information about whether users can bookmark favorite stories or keep track of forum threads in their profile). There is not much information about the contents of the archives, and it would definitely be great to include highlights of interesting or bizarre stories to enable site visitors to discover the story of the community and the paper as well.
