Salem Massachusetts insiders information guide to restaurants, bars, nightlife, shopping and living for tourists and residents.

We got a face lift

Written by admin on November 15th, 2008 4 Comments

As you can tell, TheSalemInsider.com looks a bit different, we got a face lift.  If you are one of the many people who read this blog using our RSS feed, you probably wont notice a difference.

After publishing a few articles about the importance of a businesses website we ran through a self assessment and determined it was time for some improvements.  What we came up with is a format that is easier to read, cleaner and  more contemporary.

The month of October saw a great spike in traffic for us, akin to the spike in tourism that Salem sees each Halloween season.  Our pages were served up to over a quarter of a million people and we were just too busy.  Now that things have calmed down a bit we are going to focus on some items we let slip by us.  Look for some new resource pages, and some unique advertising around town.  Also in the works a series of historically based articles, another photo contest and if things work out a new dining critic, who many of you already know and love.

With all that being said, we aren’t going to forget our roots - being the insiders guide to restaurants, bars, nightlife, shopping and living in Salem Massachusetts.
