FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can you build a Hindi news portal?

Yes. We build news portals in Hindi, English and other Indian languages with Unicode fonts that display correctly on every phone and browser.

Will our portal appear in Google News?

We build the portal with NewsArticle schema, a news sitemap and the structure Google looks for. Inclusion in Google News is decided by Google based on your content and publishing practices, so no developer can guarantee it.

Can reporters post news from their mobile?

Yes. Reporters log in from their phone, write the story, add photos or video and submit it for the editor to approve and publish.

Can we show ads on the portal?

Yes. The portal includes header, sidebar, in-article and pop-up ad slots for Google AdSense and your own direct advertisers, plus sponsored story options.

Can the portal be connected to our ePaper?

Yes. The portal can link to your daily edition on the Netmore ePaper platform, which handles the flipbook, archive, paywall and subscriptions.
