Axel Springer hat letzte Woche wieder einmal Zahlen zur Premium Content Initiative verkündet:
Gut eineinhalb Jahre nach dem Start der Initiative zur Etablierung kostenpflichtiger Inhalte im mobilen und stationären Internet zieht Axel Springer eine weitere positive Zwischenbilanz. Journalistische Medienmarken wie BILD und DIE WELT werden vor allem auf neuen mobilen Endgeräten wie Smartphones und Tablet-PCs intensiv genutzt; sie verkaufen über alle Plattformen hinweg jeden Tag mehr als 108.000 digitale Ausgaben (BILD) bzw. knapp 17.000 digitale Ausgaben (DIE WELT).

Springers "Tagesverkäufe" sind lediglich anders gerechnete Abonnenten: "Summe aus iPad, iPhone, ePaper, Android, Online-Abonnements (ohne freigeschaltete Print-Abonnenten)" (Quelle: Axel Springer)
Die Meldung hat sehr große Ähnlichkeit zur ersten Jubelpressemeldung vor eineinhalb Jahren:
Wir können bis heute eine höchst erfreuliche Zwischenbilanz ziehen. Die Resonanz auf den Start der neuen Mobilangebote von BILD und WELT für das iPhone hat unsere Erwartungen mit mehr als 100.000 App-Downloads bei weitem übertroffen. Nun ist es unser Ansporn, möglichst viele Nutzer dauerhaft von unseren attraktiven Angeboten zu angemessenen Preisen zu überzeugen.
War zum Zeitpunkt der ersten Pressemeldung ausschließlich die iPhone App verfügbar, sind in der Zwischenzeit Android-Smartphones und Apples iPad dazugekommen. Außerdem spricht Springer in der aktuellen Medlung nicht mehr von App-Verkäufen, sondern von der
Summe aus iPad, iPhone, ePaper, Android, Online-Abonnements (ohne freigeschaltete Print-Abonnenten)
Die generelle Nutzung mobiler Endgeräte hat im gleichen Zeitraum stark zugenommen. Sowohl Bild, wie auch Welt pushen die Apps weiterhin mit kostenlosen Testversionen. So gesehen und unter Berücksichtigung der großzügigen Rechnungsart (was alles zu den “digitalen Ausgaben” gezählt wird) sind die aktuell veröffentlichten Zahlen und das Wachstum in 18 Monaten eher ernüchternd, bis enttäuschend.
Wachstum bleibt hinter Marktentwicklung zurück
Objektiv betrachtet steigt die Nachfrage nach kostenpflichtigen Springer-Apps noch nicht einmal proportional zur gestiegenen Verbreitung und Nutzung der verfügbaren Endgeräte. Auch zu Umsatzzahlen und wirklichen Verkäufen schweigt man sich bei Springer weiter aus; auch wenn in manchen Berichten Springers erfolgreiche Digitalsparte mit erfolgreichen Premium-Apps gleichgesetzt wird. Aber das stimmt leider einfach nicht.

Excellent blog! Do you have any tips for aspiring writers?
I’m planning to start my own site soon but I’m a little lost on everything.
Would you advise starting with a free platform like Wordpress or go for a paid option? There are so many options out
there that I’m completely overwhelmed .. Any suggestions?
Thanks!
No matter if some one searches for his necessary
thing, therefore he/she desires to be available that in detail, thus that thing is maintained over here.
I have been exploring for a bit for any high quality articles or
blog posts on this sort of area . Exploring in Yahoo I finally
stumbled upon this site. Reading this info So i’m happy to convey that I’ve a very just right uncanny feeling I found

what if you added a post title that makes people want more?
I mean App-Flaute: Axel Springer und die ernüchternde Premium
Content Initiative is kinda plain. You should glance
at Yahoo’s front page and see how they write post headlines to grab people to click.
You might add a video or a pic or two to grab readers excited about what you’ve got to say.
Just my opinion, it could bring your posts a little livelier.
Wow that was strange. I just wrote an extremely long comment but after I clicked submit my comment didn’t appear.
Grrrr… well I’m not writing all that over again. Anyhow, just
wanted to say superb blog!
I’m curious to find out what blog system you’re
using? I’m having some small security issues with my latest site and I’d
like to find something more safeguarded. Do you have any recommendations?
First of all I want to say excellent blog! I had a quick question in which I’d like to ask
if you don’t mind. I was curious to find out how you center yourself and clear your mind before writing.
I’ve had a tough time clearing my thoughts in getting my
thoughts out there. I truly do take pleasure in writing however it just seems like the first 10 to 15
minutes tend to be wasted simply just trying to figure out how to begin. Any recommendations or hints?
Thanks!

It’s hard to come by experienced people for this subject,
however, you sound like you know what you’re talking about!

Howdy! I know this is somewhat off topic but I was wondering which blog platform are you using
for this site? I’m getting tired of Wordpress because I’ve had problems with hackers and I’m looking at alternatives for another platform.
I would be great if you could point me in the direction of
a good platform.
Hey I know this is off topic but I was wondering if
you knew of any widgets I could add to my blog that automatically tweet my newest twitter updates.
I’ve been looking for a plug-in like this for quite
some time and was hoping maybe you would have some experience with
something like this. Please let me know if you run into anything.
I truly enjoy reading your blog and I look
forward to your new updates.

Nice blog! Is your theme custom made or did you download it from somewhere?
A theme like yours with a few simple tweeks would really make my blog stand out.
Please let me know where you got your theme. Thank you
Helpful info. Lucky me I discovered your web site accidentally, and
I’m stunned why this twist of fate didn’t happened
in advance! I bookmarked it.
For the reason that the admin of this site is working, no question very shortly it will be
well-known, due to its feature contents.
Currently it looks like BlogEngine is the best blogging
platform available right now. (from what I’ve read) Is that what you’re using on your blog?
I all the time used to read post in news papers but now as I am a user of net so
from now I am using net for articles, thanks to web.
Asking questions are really good thing if you are not understanding anything totally, except this article presents nice
understanding yet.
I love your blog.. very nice colors & theme. Did you make this website yourself or did you
hire someone to do it for you? Plz respond as I’m looking to design my own blog and would
like to find out where u got this from. thank you
