Finally, a new feature called, “bread crumbs” is on each page to help visitors move easier through the website.
The Oneida Nation story is represented through homepage call-out sections about government, community, and enterprises describing the people and Nation.

This new website provides an opportunity to journey with the Oneida people from exploring the traditional creation story to issues that currently affect the Oneida Nation.
A visually appealing and functional website awaits visitors. Viewers can subscribe to the department pages they are interested in and receive an email or text message when webpage content changes. The new calendar has organizational events and a true “Community Calendar” where viewers will find posted community events and opportunities. In addition to the Oneida official Facebook and Twitter, the Nation has recently launched Instagram, Pinterest, and Youtube.
