Want my advice?....Trying updating the template. That's WAAYY too much text. Try getting some components that display each article in image format or have them scrolling or something. In my experience, when people see a lot of text, they're turned off.

Take a look at this template (http://template15.joomlart.com/ja_opal/)...it's jampacked with articles as well. However, they have main articles in a slideshow at the top, plus tabs to the right, videos, etc.

I realize persons are into the news a lot lately, so you have a good idea there. However, you need to present it in a format that will make the viewer want to come back; and believe you me...having a long page of text is not the way. You can also use the Gleaner's & Star's website as guidelines. The layout they launched last year does this in a way persons can appreciate
