Dear Reader!
Thanks for visiting the Sydney Times site (mysydneytimes.net.au) and We hope that you found something useful or entertaining on our Digital News and Lifestyle Platform!
“last year 2022was a tough year,.. and as much of our limited resources go into sharing and aggregating important News from various levels of the government in New South wales and major Stakeholders that keep this great city of Sydney and our State going forward in spite of all the continuing problems associated with COVID.”
As a Luna New year Gesture and to enhance your Reading Experience –We will reduce the Google Ads Load on our site -up until the end of Pride month in march ,..in order to provide you with a better Reader experience and speed up the site.
Unfortunately Advertising and Publicity are an essential part of the Publishing landscape and whilst many of the GoogleAds or Taboola Branded content articles are irritating for many readers ,.we can see from the Click on Google Ads ,..that they can also be quite useful as they are tailored for our audience demographics.
However in order to enhance the Sydney Times Holiday Reading experience
We will release around “100 Lifestyle Articles & Reviews” comprising Wine Reviews, Restaurant and Cafe Reviews and Lifestyle information with a Focus on the Holiday Season,..so please stick with us as an important alternative to the Mainstream Media .
It has been another momentous year for the Sydney Times, with over 2,500 articles and news items posted , not to mention dozens of Media Releases and important information from such the Arts and Culture sector and many other community sectors aggregated on the platform. We have further developed our dynamic and growing local and overseas community of readers without actually implementing our Planned Memberships scheme which is now on hold until march 2023 .
Access to the Sydney Times will continue completely Free of charge until early March 2023 when we will progressively introduce a user friendly paywall to ensure to enhance security and ensure that the traffic on our site is comprised of genuine readers and not Bots,Hackers and other “lowlife” Media agents interested in stealing ideas and content .

Will you help with a Donation to Finance a socially useful Independent Media Platform and keep “the independent and slightly disruptive” Sydney Times digital platform alive !?
It is for this reason that we will have to enforce e-mail registration as our site becomes increasingly popular,.. in the interests of everybody’s security. Unfortunately,..as the Australian people have witnessed this year ,..the Cyberworld is now full of malicious state and private sector actors both at home and abroad,.. who are only too willing to hack a site or cause damage for a variety of reasons. Unfortunately,.. they currently do this with impunity,..but things are about to change-Watch this space! Cyberhackers in Singapore are being punished with lengthy prison terms and the Cane!
