atlnews2 557 Posted February 8, 2016 Author Share Posted February 8, 2016 I swear to god that they had a new website this morning. I'm not crazy ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRolyPoly 1847 Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 Yep. No new look. I'm right. Sorry if you saw something different in the morning, but KELOLand still has the old look website, a look that I actually like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtyHarry 719 Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 It's not the wordpress sites that all other MG stations use, and it's not a Nexstar site either. http://www.keloland.com/ The MG sites aren't bad when you click over to the news section, but that home page is awful. The KELO site is marginally better, but not by much. Not impressed. EDIT: They must have been pretty desperate for a better web platform than the one LIN was using. It was done locally. I'm surprised they were allowed to. http://www.l-s.com/contact Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NWA_TV_guy 148 Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 May have been different because they were updating, etc. Websites can do crazy things. I've had websites that I've managed in the past to change layouts randomly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The local provider probably provides them better support than the usual coastal techs could ever do for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atlnews2 557 Posted February 10, 2016 Author Share Posted February 10, 2016 It seems the new site is up and running again. I guess the transition didn't go so smoothly and they went back to the old one temporarily Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRolyPoly 1847 Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 There will be critics, but I actually like the new KELOLand website. A lot different and a lot better than their MG counterparts, for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viper550 268 Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 It kind of reminds me of the Sinclair sites, but a bit better here and there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
