Is the homepage dead?

Print-nostalgic editors (and even some editors who have only worked in digital media) take a certain amount of solace in the homepage. Online, it can feel like one of the only venues where editorial decision-making is visible at a glance (unlike newspapers, where the editor’s hand is in evidence on every page). As editorial agendas have become complicated with new concerns, like tweets and shares and clicks on individual stories, there remains a surprising amount of energy expended on the homepage. But as more and more traffic comes from search and social, the homepage as the entryway into a site’s content is increasingly obsolete.
