A front page that orders stories by publication time buries channels that are rarely updated. Legia structures news portals so every channel has a fixed place, and your editorial team publishes by itself every day.
Website contents
What goes into a news portal website
The structure used on the Not Media Company portal. The final structure is set with the editorial team at the needs assessment stage.
- 01
Front page by channel
Every channel has its own block: one main story with a large image and supporting stories.
- 02
Popular stories
A numbered list above everything else, for new readers who have no destination yet.
- 03
Video and podcasts
A media channel kept apart from written stories, with cards marked with a play icon.
- 04
Article pages
Headline, author, publication date, main image, and related stories in the same channel.
- 05
Author pages
A short profile, social media links, and all of that author's stories.
- 06
Search
In the top bar, apart from the channel navigation, so the two ways of looking do not cover each other.
- 07
Newsroom
Stories, channels, and author pages are managed by the editorial team through the content management system.

Ask the Legia team ↗How much does it cost to build a news portal website?
Cost depends on the number of channels and types of content such as articles, video, or podcasts, the number of languages, extra features such as reader accounts, and integration with other systems. The packages on this page give an initial estimate; the exact cost is given once the scope is agreed in the consultation.
How long does it take to build a news portal website?
The estimate is 3 to 4 weeks, from needs assessment and design through to launch. A portal with many channels or extra features is scheduled once its scope is agreed.
Can the editorial team publish news itself?
Yes. The portal is built on a content management system, so the editorial team can write, edit, and publish stories, and manage channels and author pages, without developer help. A short training is given at handover.
Can the portal show video and podcasts?
Yes. As on the Not Media Company portal, video and podcasts are separated as a media channel with cards marked with a play icon, so they do not mix with written stories.
Does Legia write news for our portal?
Copywriting for core pages such as the editorial profile is included in the package. Daily news and articles are written by your own editorial team.
Are the domain and hosting included?
The domain and hosting for the first year are included, as is the SSL certificate, and from the second year they are renewed for an annual fee. If you already have your own domain or hosting, the portal can be installed there.
How many design revisions are included?
Design revisions are not capped until the design is approved. Changes of direction that come up after a stage has been approved are counted as a separate request.
