Our online publishing experience and lessons learnt

website

Publishing their own websites has become the common option for journalists who no longer work for traditional media.

Contrary to the assumption that online publishing is easy and does not require many resources to earn revenue, many have found out that there is a lot required to succeed.

To sustain their operations the online publishers have had to adopt various strategies and make some investments.

In this special interview series to have some insights on the experience of the journalists, we spoke with six online publishers and editors.

We asked them six questions:

What’s working for you and what’s not?

What are the challenges you coping with?

What have you had to learn?

What kinds of investments have you had to make to sustain your operations?

How financially rewarding has your platform been?

What is your advice for aspiring website publishers?

Their responses are insightful and they also offered useful advice for aspiring publishers.

Those who responded to our questions are:
