This afternoon, we introduce our new look website - www.northernadvocate.co.nz - which puts local news and your stories first.

As well as providing local and national news updated throughout the day, our new website helps you connect with our local community - and share stories that matter to you.

Take a look at some of the new features.

The home page delivers the best local stories, photos, videos, comments from readers and national news. There are easy links found in the sub navigation to Local, Regional News, Sport, Business, Rural, Life and Entertainment. The Life section is the new home of Gardening, Fashion, Recipes, Travel and more.

Finding your way around the new site is easiest when you use the top navigation menu.
