Despite a decline in print sales - reflected nationally in print publications - the website traffic is steadily increasing, with records reflecting an average of 100,000 to 150,000 users per month. In 2015, Romanes Media Group was taken over by Newsquest Media Group, which resulted in a re-structure of staffing in CWP titles. The editorial team at the Clydebank Post includes Gillian Murphy (group content editor), Tristan Stewart-Robertson (chief reporter) and Jack Thomson (reporter). Henry Ainslie, deputy editor of the Evening Times, retains overall responsibility for all CWP titles. The newspaper office is based at 201 Dumbarton Road, Clydebank.
