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.

Hello there! I know this is kinda off topic nevertheless I’d figured I’d ask.
Would you be interested in exchanging links or maybe guest writing a blog article
or vice-versa? My blog goes over a lot of the same subjects as yours and I believe we could greatly benefit from each other.
If you might be interested feel free to send me an email.
I look forward to hearing from you! Wonderful blog by the way!
I am extremely impressed with your writing skills as well as with the
layout on your blog. Is this a paid theme or did you customize it yourself?
Anyway keep up the nice quality writing, it’s rare to see a great blog like this one these days.

Link exchange is nothing else except it is just placing the other person’s website link
on your page at suitable place and other person will also do
similar in favor of you.
I’m impressed, I have to admit. Seldom do I come across a blog that’s both
educative and engaging, and without a doubt, you have hit the nail on the head.
The problem is an issue that too few folks are speaking intelligently about.
Now i’m very happy that I found this during my search for something
concerning this.
I know this if off topic but I’m looking into starting my
own weblog and was curious what all is required to get
set up? I’m assuming having a blog like yours would cost a

Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated.

made good content as you did, the internet will be much more useful than ever before.
