CathNews Website
News portal website design for Catholic media organization.
CathNews is the Australian Catholic Bishops Conference’s weekday news aggregation newsletter, delivered free by email, with additional offerings including Mass on Demand and job advertising. Zenneo modernised the CathNews website to align with refreshed branding, improve the user experience, and introduce new functionality including a dedicated job advertiser portal.
The Challenge
CathNews needed to evolve from a traditional newsletter-style site into a modern, brand-aligned platform that could support multiple content streams without becoming cluttered. The website had to serve different audiences at once, including daily readers, people accessing Mass on Demand, and organisations wanting to advertise roles. The core challenge was delivering a clean, intuitive experience while adding new features that required structure, clarity, and easy administration.
Our Solution
We delivered a full website modernisation designed around clarity, consistency, and scalability. The new design follows CathNews’ updated branding and creates a cleaner reading experience that supports regular daily visits. We refined the layout and navigation so users can quickly move between key offerings, including newsletter content, Mass on Demand, and jobs, without friction.
A major component of the build was the introduction of a job advertiser portal. This provided a more structured, professional pathway for job advertising, supporting CathNews’ publishing model while making it easier for advertisers to engage with the service.
We also implemented SEO foundations to support discoverability for news, jobs, and related content, ensuring the platform is not only modern and usable, but also positioned for sustained organic visibility.
