p4connecting Connecting Industry website:Re-engineered for 2012 and beyond…Connecting Industry, the online hub of the UK’s leading portfolio of industrial publications (www.connectingindustry.com), has been completely re-engineered and was relaunched this month.

Connecting Industry is already the UK’s largest and most comprehensive online resource for engineers and manufacturing professionals, but now it has been given a complete redesign making it more attractive, easier to navigate and user-friendly.

New search options, an unrivalled supplier database, interactive events calendar and rich multi-media content, together with links to all major social networks will ensure that Connecting Industry remains the number one online source of information for the manufacturing industry.

Features of the new site include:

• Increased Connecting Industry branding of the home of the UK’s largest and strongest portfolio of industrial magazines.

• Provides an easy to navigate, user-friendly site full of rich multi-media content and an industrial website experience second to none.

• Each of the Connecting Industry publications now has a section of its own so visitors can go straight to the magazine/story they want.

• The site offers a fully interactive, user-friendly search tool for anyone wanting to read the latest industry news, quality editorial, and find the products and/or suppliers they require. The searchable database allows users to find companies by product category, geographical location, alphabetically or by keyword – and to do it faster and more efficiently than before.

• Built-in web 2.0 functionality so that it integrates seamlessly with social networks. In this way Connecting Industry will build a community between magazines, readers and suppliers. ConnectingIndustry.com will therefore continue to be the first website engineers and manufacturing professionals think of when they need the latest information.

• A comprehensive and fully interactive events calendar. Exhibitions, seminars and training events are a useful way for people in the industry to network and finding them all in one place is difficult. ConnectingIndustry.com provides this service.

• The new site makes it even easier to read the latest digital editions of Datateam’s industrial magazines, register to receive printed copies and sign up for regular e-newsletters.

• An administration tool allows editorial staff to upload the latest news stories and content quickly and easily while there are many more advertising opportunities for companies to get their message across.
