Nearly half the UK’s population visited the Mail Online this January. With massive journalism issues like the economy, the explosion of social media, local versus national content, and let’s not forget monetisation, few would argue that we are in unchartered waters when it comes to digital publishing. What are the risks and opportunities in this dynamic environment? How do brands transform the way they engage with readers online?
Join us for an exclusive BIMA digital dinner with James Bromley, the Managing Director of the Mail Online.
James has been managing director of the Mail Online since April 2008. During this time, the site has grown by 54%, and according to ABCe, it is the now the joint third largest UK newspaper online. January alone saw 7.3 million unique UK users! The Mail Online is the 8th most popular newspaper website worldwide, and in the US market, it is ahead of all but 4 US based newspaper websites (Comscore Jan 2009).
Before the Mail Online, James was responsible for the development of strategy for Trader Media Group (autotrader.co.uk), reporting directly to the COO/CEO and undertaking both M&A and new start-up ventures. He’s been online from the start—in 1996 as the first employee of the UK's first banner sales house, after which he moved to pioneering digital agency Foresight. After a short break from online, during which time he set up, and later sold, a dance music radio station, he returned to his preferred digital medium and will join BIMA to discuss the future of digital publishing.
Register early, as space is limited and only 2 members per company may attend.
