Omaha.com Getting A Makeover

[Updated July 10, 2006, 12:35 p.m.]

The Omaha World-Herald's online edition, Omaha.com, is in the midst of a major site redesign. When it relaunches, one new feature will be a database of local bands, including member rosters, descriptions, photos, MP3s and discographies.

In an e-mail to local bands, Omaha.com Entertainment Editor Kevin Coffey says the database of bands will also cross-reference upcoming performances, which will also be displayed in a new calendar section.

Coffey says Omaha.com has 250,000 registered users and about 12 million page views each month. By comparison, KETV (Cox Channel 9) averages approximately 5.9 million pages views per month for its website, KETV.com.

Editor's Note: The number of page views Omaha.com receives was updated from two million to 12 million, due to incorrect information supplied by Omaha.com.

Dear Sean: You've got an error in this item, resulting from a typo on our end. Omaha.com gets about 12 million page views a month, not two. I'd be grateful if you'd post a correction.

Thanks,
