A revamped insiteronline.com has been launched, unveiling an innovative and sleek design that aims to attract more visitors, particularily student. With a domain that has hit thousands of visitors in the month of October 2011, the new design will be posing as one of the media outlets that are aimed to give a strengthened voice to the students on the University of Malta campus. Speaking during the launch, Website Editor Jake Dalli said that the new design also gives enhanced importance to advertising due to the distinguished space it gives it.

CEO Emma Gauci commented on the importance of the presence on the web of student organisations, especially for Insite which is the student media organisation. Linking with this, External Officer Warren Sammut explained the importance of being the main source of news and media at the University. “Your University Your Media” is the campaign tagline that aims to consolidate Insite’s established position of being able to voice student thoughts. Sammut encouraged students present at the launch to contribute by tipping Insite’s Media teams with news ideas.

Emma Gauci and Jake Dalli concluded by unveiling the renovated website: www.insiteronline.com.
