Yudu Media to launch online magazine store

Yudu Media is set to launch an online magazine service to allow publishers to host digital versions of their magazines.

The digital publishing company has already signed deals with The Big Issue and distributor Newsstand to host publications on Yudu Store.

The new service, which will offer a 75/25 revenue share with publishers, will feature forums and polls as well as subscribers’ clubs alongside the magazines’ back catalogues.

Yudu Store will launch the first online version of The Big Issue, with a share of revenue given back to street vendors in the area the digital copies are sold.

The online store will also sell a print and online package for newsstand titles including Nuts, Zoo, Inside Soap and Heat.
