<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When it comes to traditional publishing, the number of places where you physically distribute or advertise your magazine results directly in reach. Even though the possibilities are limited, the rule is simple: the more points, the better. As for digital publishing, it’s quite the opposite. One great optimized web-based kiosk is enough to open up endless possibilities in terms of online reach.<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It is all about how many people have access to \u2013 or are exposed to \u2013 your publications. In this context, the differences between the capabilities of traditional and digital publishing models are huge, both in terms of the possibilities of increasing the reach and the ways of measuring it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Taking these two aspects into account, web-based kiosks win, and you will see why in a moment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

The basis of web-based kiosk<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

While you are a traditional publisher, newsstands are primarily the places of distribution, hence billboards, TV and radio become the ways to advertise your title. However, if you manage an online publication shared on the internet, a web-based kiosk\u2019s role goes much beyond fulfilling a purely sales function. Basically, it can be treated as a tool that is used for distribution and promotion at the same time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Distribution<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

A web-based kiosk is a store that can be embedded on your or your partners\u2019 websites and blogs. It is like an e-commerce platform for your publications and you are the person who decides which place on the internet is the best to install it. Thanks to it, you can publish and sell content independently without the division of cost with others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Web-based kiosks sell and promote digital magazines<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Above all, it is an opportunity for readers from all over the world to have online access to your publication (current and archive issues) as well as provide the ability to read your content in the browser without the need to download a file (as is the case with PressPad Store<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Promotion<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

On the other side, the digital kiosk is a tool that needs to be promoted but also plays a promotional role. Sounds a bit confusing? We hasten with an explanation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If a web store is where your online magazine is sold, it is necessary to promote it online so that readers know about its existence. But there is another side of the coin. First of all, an e-kiosk is a way to succeed in e-commerce<\/a>, no matter what kind of product or solution is offered. Secondly, it provides a role of support for every brand\u2019s magazine or catalog.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And finally, a web-based kiosk is also a way to expand a magazine\u2019s reach online.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why is expanding the magazine\u2019s reach online so important?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We can approach online reach in two ways:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Reach is understood from the quantitative perspective as several people who have access to or are exposed to your online publications. It can be expressed as various readers’ actions: downloads, purchases, and subscriptions but also views, or reads. Increasing the reach of your digital publications on your website or landing page results in generating more leads and sales.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
      \n
    1. Reach is understood wider, from the qualitative perspective as making a meaningful connection that initiates conversations, changes perceptions, and drives actions. In this case, it isn’t about how many people saw your content; it is about how deeply it touched them, how well it resonated, and what kind of feelings left. If you want to boost your brand awareness, focus on increasing the reach of your digital publications on social media or email.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      Let’s take a closer look at the role web-based kiosks play in these two situations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      The strategy you know well<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

      Both of the reach types are related to one issue you\u2019ve already heard about while building your website or blog. As in those cases, as now in the case of the e-kiosk, SEO plays the first fiddle when it comes to building reach.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

      The most significant rule of expanding your magazine\u2019s reach online thanks to a web-based kiosk is its search engine optimization. It improves the discoverability of your magazine. Implementing SEO best practices can increase its visibility on search engine results pages, attracting new readers who may be searching for relevant content. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
