Webinar: Serving the growing mobile audience

Date: Apr. 7, 2022
Time: 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm

About this webinar

According to PewResearch.org, 86% of Americans get their news from a mobile device. As a newspaper publisher, it’s never been more important to focus on your audience’s mobile user experience.

In this webinar, we will discuss key design points to consider for maximizing mobile traffic and revenue. Is your “Subscribe” button readily available on mobile, or is it hidden in a sliding menu? Are your ads mobile responsive? If so, are they still readable on a phone screen?

We will also address the big question on many publishers’ minds today: “Should I get a native app, or focus on my responsive website?” What unique benefits does a native app provide to support my digital strategy?

Join us as Matt Larson, president and CEO of Our-Hometown.com discusses all these points and more.
