With a circulation of 340,000 weekdays and 550,000 on Sunday, The Denver Post is Colorado's largest daily newspaper. The online home page is designed to resemble the front page of the print edition, but falls short in its presentation. Most section fronts are designed with ads to the right side of the page and related links are to the left of the page.
Stories are in the center of the page.
The purpose of this format is to help separate news content from advertising. The page looks confusing when a visual image, accompanying the story, is placed next to the ads. At first glance, it is difficult to distinguish between an ad and the photograph accompanying the story. Most advertisements run on the section fronts. Many section fronts have advertisements relevant to each section.
