WFN: World Fishing Network Successfully Launches New Agility CMS Managed WFN Site

March 7, 2011- TORONTO, ON – Agility CMS and WFN: World Fishing Network, North America’s only 24/7 fishing lifestyle network, are proud to announce the launch of the new Agility-managed (WFN) website, www.WorldFishingNetwork.com. The updated site offers enhanced user-generated and crowd-sourced content functionality that encourages visitors to contribute to the site.
Each registered WFN user participates in the site’s content through their own blogs, where they have the ability to publish stories, news, videos, photos, tips and techniques, and also comment on or rate the content on the site.
“The site is very community driven”, stated Kyle Tinning, Senior Project Manager at Agility CMS. “The page structure is a framework for user content. There are currently approximate 15000 content items that are being served up.”
“The Agility CMS and the modular backend required minimal training and was very flexible”, said Darko Milivojevic, Vice President of Digital Media for WFN. “The Agility team executed a strong development process and scheduling which met our items. The added tracking systems and ease of turning on and off modules are key elements of WorldFishingNetwork.com”
Visitors can become site “Ambassadors” which gives them more freedom to add content to the site. To complete the user’s experience, the redesigned website is also accessible through free iPhone and iPad applications. Kyle added, “I could go on about how amazing everything is on the site and the amount of functionality, but I urge you to explore it for yourself”.
