Celebrating its 12th year online, Soap Opera Network is currently experiencing its biggest year on record in terms of page views and unique visitors. This year we’ve been able to provide exclusive insight into the world of soaps while bringing readers inside the minds of some of their favorite characters and actors featured on “The Bold and the Beautiful,” “Days of our Lives,” “General Hospital” and “The Young and the Restless.” As we come off of the long Thanksgiving holiday weekend, we’re gearing up for even more features in the coming weeks and the new year including the return of the SON Awards along with the annual Airhog Awards, while introducing new features such as our first annual best and worst of the year report and our new best of soaps weekly poll highlighting the best actors, best soaps, and best storylines of the week for both daytime and primetime soap opera related programming. To better present all this content we’ve made significant alterations to our website design that gets rid of clutter and inactive coding that previously prevented the site from being presented in the best way possible. The new design codenamed “refresh” was launched today.

Meanwhile, as we prepare to close out 2013, we’re proud to announce that we will be launching a sister website (name to be announced) in the coming weeks that will bring our readers news and interviews featuring some of their favorite non-soap related daytime and primetime shows and stars, movie news, music and more. As we get ready to launch the new website we’re actively on the lookout for talented freelance writers interested in covering the world of entertainment. If interested, please email [email protected] with the subject “freelance work” along with attached resume and a writing sample. Want to cover soaps instead? We’re also looking for additions to our soap team, so please also send us your resume and provide a writing sample.
