paidContent.org: How are newspaper sites that charge faring?
September 4th, 2009Posted by Laura Oliver in Editors' pick, Newspapers, Online Journalism
paidContent’s US site has a great round-up of the smaller and medium newspaper websites (e.g. away from the much heralded FT.com and WSJ.coms of the world) that are charging for online access.
Despite differing subscription models the overall suggestion is that online traffic has been badly affected, but some titles suggest a positive impact on print circulation as a result of charging for online.
