Lubbock Lights is a year old this month. We have a lot to celebrate:Our website page views have grown 45 percent from our first six months to our second six months. Over the first year on Facebook, reach has grown 29,800 percent – which sounds impressive but partly because we’re doing something new. Visits are up 2,700 percent and follows increased 4,500 percent. People share our stories on social media at a higher rate than other local media.

Sally Taylor and Terry Greenberg, Oct. 2023, at Dirk’s for a story about chicken fried steak and beer. Six months ago, we relaunched Lubbock Lights. Back then, I wrote we’d focus on two things:Telling stories in depth. Covering more lifestyle stories. Newspapers used to have feature departments with writers to cover people, food, drink, restaurants, health, pets, faith, music and more. So far, so good, which I’ll explain in more detail below. Lubbock Lights is different from other local media.

When Tony Bradford came to Lubbock from Houston to play football for Texas Tech, he was impressed with how the community supported Red Raider student athletes. It inspired him to support the community. Bradford bought some sandwich meat, bread and made sandwiches for the homeless, driving around to give them the food. It started a passion for community service that’s been recognized locally and nationally.
