Launched in April 2008, Raider has rapidly become the magazine of choice for elite forces and special operations. Each issue uncovers the units, the gear and the stories with high-quality, expert content.
Produced for Ebcon Publishing, the website launched in 2009. The site allows users to subscribe to the magazine and uses RBS WorldPay as the payment service provider to authorise credit card payments.
The site also boasts the following functionality:
- Issues controlled by a customer management system. Information about issues of the magazine can be added via a password-protected admin module and the system is set up to pick up the current issue as well as to automatically assign this as a back issue once a certain date is passed.
- Banner adverts also controlled via the admin module - see more information on the right.



The staff of Ebcon Publishing are able to add banner adverts to the site via the admin module. The banners are produced as GIF image files and have to be produced to the final required size either by Ebcon or the advertiser before being uploaded. (Server-side image resizing would not be appropriate for such images).
