Celtic are set to relaunch their website next week with what is promised to be fresh designs and features.

A new look will be welcomed but a fresh newsy feel is essential if the club is to keep pace with the fast moving digital age.

During the recent international break there was very little content on the club website which tends to be dominated by commercial news and information about initiatives from the Celtic Foundation.

While there are obviously a number of restrictions on what can be covered a dedicated news team would be appreciated and drive traffic to the club platform which seems to be secondary to the Celtic View when it comes to content.

The Sun reports:

CELTIC are set to launch their new look website as the Parkhead club update their online platform. The Hoops’ upgraded site is due to be revealed next week – with a series of fresh designs and features for supporters to enjoy.

The new website is set to be renamed celticfc.com, replacing the old long-term celticfc.net online home. The website is undergoing the final rounds of testing and will be officially launched following the feedback of some fans.

Fans will be able to browse brand new “History” and “Legends” sections among the new features. The history section will take fans through a decade by decade look at all things Celts. A “Trophy Room” addition, to help site visitors celebrate the club’s past successes down the years, will also be available.

Features on players such as Vasilis Barkas and Patryk Klimala while away on international duty would add value to the club site as well as features on how loan players are getting on.

There is a massive archive of material that could be used as well as details such as coverage of last week’s friendly away to Hibs at Easter Road. Detail on the ‘Reserve Squad’ is especially thin.
