Rockdale Citizen: How to Read Local News and Subscribe Online

Rockdale Citizen is the local news outlet for Rockdale County, Georgia, published at rockdalecitizen.com. You can go straight to the homepage to read current local news, sports, and community coverage, browse section pages, search for past articles, and use the site's Subscribe links to see digital and print subscription options. If you already have an account, use the subscriber login to reach the e-edition. The steps below cover each of those tasks.

Reading Rockdale County news on the site

1. Open rockdalecitizen.com in your browser. The homepage is the main entry point for current coverage.
2. Scan the homepage for the latest local stories, then move into the section you want — news, sports, and community coverage are the main areas the site organizes around.
3. Click a headline to open the full article. Some stories may sit behind a subscriber wall, which is why the Subscribe prompts appear on the site.
4. Use the site search if you're looking for a specific topic, person, or event rather than browsing by date.

Expected result: you land on the article or section you were looking for, or you hit a subscribe prompt if that content requires a subscription.

Finding sections and past articles

• Sections: use the site's navigation to move between news, sports, and community coverage rather than scrolling the homepage indefinitely.
• Search: the search function is the practical way to find older or specific articles once they've dropped off the homepage.
• Archive limits: the site does not state here how far back free access extends, so treat search results as a starting point and expect some older items to require a subscription.

Subscribing: what the site actually offers

The site presents subscription through several Subscribe links rather than a single pricing table in the material available:

Because the site shows multiple subscribe paths, open the main /subscribe page first and compare the options it lists there. The material available does not state current prices, whether a free trial exists, or which payment methods are accepted — check those details on the subscribe page itself before committing.

E-edition and subscriber login

If you already subscribe, the account/service area at rockdalecitizen.com/users/admin/service/purchase/ is where the site routes account and purchase actions. Use your existing login to get into subscriber-only content, including the e-edition where offered. If you can't get in, the likely causes are an expired subscription, a password issue, or a login that was never completed — resolve those through the account area before assuming the content is unavailable.

Contacting the newsroom or customer service

For delivery problems, account issues, or newsroom questions, use the contact details published on the site. The material available does not list specific phone numbers or email addresses, so look for the contact or customer service link in the site's navigation or footer rather than relying on a number from elsewhere.
