Redesign Your Newspaper! to increase readership and revenue
Jul 17, 2025
One of the consistent themes in the post-pandemic newspaper is improving design. Community newspapers are bucking the trend of metro papers and investing in growing readership, which in turn grows advertising revenue. A key element of growing readership is making the design of your paper more reader-friendly, drawing the reader rather than turning the reader away.
