A ready-made news website that lets you focus on publishing
A news website needs more than an attractive homepage. You need to create articles, organise images, manage categories and present stories clearly. Hatopya brings these tasks together through publishing tools that work on the same platform.
You do not need to write code, configure a server or assemble plugins. After reviewing your application, we agree your publication’s needs and coordinate the technical setup with you. Once setup is complete, you can start preparing content in the panel.
Ready-made news website templates with your own identity
Choose from four news designs and adapt your website with colour options, headline areas and category modules. A local newsroom and a specialist publication can select layouts that suit their different priorities.
Your logo, favicon, categories and colours make the publication your own. Responsive templates let readers access stories from phones, tablets and computers. Selecting a theme does not require moving to a paid software plan.
The essential tools a news website needs, in one panel
Hatopya’s ready-made news software brings everyday publishing tasks together. Prepare stories, organise the homepage, manage your editorial team and use the media library from one workspace.
These tools are part of the free software. As new software features and improvements become available in the system, you can use them without buying an extra package or paying an upgrade fee.
- A rich text editor for writing, editing and scheduling stories.
- Parent and child categories, headline selection and homepage modules.
- Batch image uploads, WebP optimisation and a media library.
- Galleries, sectioned articles, columnist profiles and opinion pieces.
- Editorial permissions, multiple-publication management and revision comparison.
- Tags, advertising placements, market modules and comment-service integration.
A shared news pool that connects your publication to a wider network
The news pool takes Hatopya beyond a collection of ready-made templates. You can share eligible published stories after confirming your right to do so, and review content other publications have chosen to share. The software also becomes a way for publishers to work together.
See stories shared in the last 30 days in your website’s enabled publication languages. Choose a category on your own website and import a story as a draft, or publish it if your permissions allow. Images are used from the original website’s addresses, so you do not upload them again. A linked source credit appears below the story.
Duplicate-import controls and restrictions on resharing imported stories prevent repeated content loops. You decide which stories to share and which to add to your publication. This adds a collaborative content network to the usual editorial tools.
Free ready-made news software that stays free
Hatopya is not a limited trial. There are no software licence, setup, hosting, server or CDN subscription fees. We have no paid news software plan. The software remains free while you comply with the service terms, and every new software feature added to the platform is also free.
You obtain and renew your domain name. Management and editorial work or a mobile app are optional additional services; buying them is not required to use the free software. You can manage your content yourself on the free infrastructure.
Mobile-friendly publishing with speed and SEO foundations
Responsive themes, server-rendered pages, caching, appropriately sized WebP images and sitemaps support your publication. Organise titles, descriptions, categories and content around your editorial needs.
Original reporting, clear headlines, accurate sources and regular publishing are the value you add. With less technical setup to handle, you have more time to prepare useful content for your readers.
