Title: WEEI & SBNation partnership
Post by: Jeff on April 11, 2011, 03:51:01 PM
so this is pretty cool

the short version is this - WEEI and SBNation sites like this one will trade links and promote each other - which will be easy for me in particular since I really like a lot of what they are doing over there on WEEI.com

here are the full details

The agreement, which is the most expansive of its kind for both WEEI.com and SB Nation, will blend the best of traditional media with interactive user-generated content. Highlights include:

ØWEEI.com will feature headlines and content from SB Nation websites relevant to all the Boston teams, and SB Nation will bring WEEI.com’s highly-regarded reporting and personalities to its readers in Boston and beyond.

Ø A new feature on WEEI.com called “Behind Enemy Lines” will provide news and commentary from SB Nation’s network of team-focused blogs about upcoming Boston opponents.

Ø A new, co-branded landing page will include links to SB Nation content appearing on WEEI.com as well as outbound links to national stories within the SB Nation network.

ØWEEI.com and SB Nation will integrate relevant content within each other’s coverage of Boston sports teams, offering a unique diversity of perspectives on all the local teams.

Ø Content from each partner will appear on dedicated team pages & blogs in widget form for easy-to-use functionality.
