Once again RHS Media’s The Garden leads the home interest magazine market, with a total circulation of just over 439,000.
The Sunday market performed well in January and was up 0.6% overall. Six titles recorded sales growth from December, led by the Mail on Sunday with +2.2% – an additional 22,200 copies to reach more than a million sales.
The daily national newspaper market overall remained steady in the last month of 2018, recording a negligible period-on-period (PoP) change of -0.2%.
PAMCo, Audience Measurement for Publishers, has today released its fourth set of cross-platform audience readership figures for magazines, covering the period of October 2017 to September 2018.
The new data currency is a game-changer for the publishing industry, as the numbers now reflect the reality of how readers are consuming newspapers and magazines across all platforms.
For the third consecutive month, both the daily and Sunday national newspaper markets have recorded period on period (PoP) declines, down -0.6% and -1.3%, respectively.
October was a miserable month for newspaper circulation, with both national markets and the London free press recording period on period (PoP) and year on year (YoY) declines.
In the daily market just two titles were up: the Financial Times and the Guardian, while no titles in the Sunday market recorded any growth.
Leading the pack across all national markets is The Sun, with a de-duplicated monthly total brand reach of 31.3m. The title also recorded the highest mobile reach across all markets at 22.2m.
The third quarter of cross-platform audience readership figures for magazine brands has been released by PAMCo today, covering the period July 2017 to June 2018 and incorporating May 2018 comScore data.
