2004-05 Version of Website More User-Friendly and Easier to Navigate
2004 NBA Champion Detroit Pistons Unveil ’New Look’ Website
AUBURN HILLS, Mich. – On Tuesday, November 2, the day the Detroit Pistons are presented with their championship rings and raise their banner as 2004 NBA Champions, the team will unveil an updated version of their website, www.pistons.com.
The changes to the site focus on the aesthetics and navigation of the site by minimizing text and better utilizing available space. Drop-down menus have been added to create a much easier search for users. By placing the mouse over the headings “Tickets,” “News,” “Team Info,” “Schedule,” “Interactive, ” and “Community,” the user will be provided a wealth of information. The new website design uses more pictures to tell stories than its predecessor. In place of articles on the front page, more photos will be featured.
A few changes have been made to make information more accessible. The team’s E-newsletter, which was sent out on a weekly basis, has been renamed "Hard@Work – The Official Pistons E-newsletter.” The new name not only reflects the team’s well-known theme of “Goin’ to Work,” but gives a unique spin on E-commerce. A subscription to the newsletter is also easier to find.
The new site features a month-at-a-glance calendar, which lists all events occurring on that specific day, whether those events be games, community events, or player birthdays. The site also lists the team leaders in points, rebounds, and assists on the front page.
For more information on the website or to purchase tickets, please contact The Palace of Auburn Hills at (248) 377-0100 or visit www.pistons.com.
