Online Advertising Expected To Get 20 Percent Of All Advertising in 2007
According to Outsell, Inc. report:
Total Online Advertising is expected to account for about 20 % of all advertising (US) Dollar spend in 2007. Print is expected to get still the larges share (but less than 2006) with 40 percent. This figures based on an Outsell Report surveying 1010 advertisiers and an overall ad growth of 5.5 percent and online ad growth of 17.9 percent (that includes 39 percent growth in search engine marketing).
But, there is also a bad message at least for publishers in this report, 58 percent of online ad spending is planned to go to marketers' own website.
How to get some of this money back to the publisher?
Marketers believe, this is the result of the (31 pages) survey, that they can produce better results in terms of branding and lead generation on their own website:
e.g. lead generation
75 percent said that their own site were effective or extremely effective in lead generation
56 percent said this about eMail campaigns
48 percent said this about search engines
e.g. branding
81 percent said that their own site were effective or extremely effective in branding
64 percent said this about eMail campaigns
51 percent said this about search engines
But how to you get potential buyers to marketer website? Print to Web? - an area publisher could try to 'work' a bit harder

Great B2B Publishing Opportunities Online in China
ABM is quite active for its member and this days specially in China - no wonder so close to the 36th FIPP World Magazine Congress May 13 - 15, 2007 in Beijing.
We do not know what the Deutsche Fachpresse or PPA UK are doing right now in this direction, but ... there are - as I mentioned on the podium at the Zeitschriftentage 2006 in Berlin - great opportunities in B2B Online.
My partner and friend Paul Woodward (BSG Asia) is stressing this point in his comment:
"Don't forget the online component of all this. In many segments of publishing, magazines have not reached real critical mass in terms of business development. With 137 million Internet users, 50 million of them with broadband, there are real opportunities for B2B media companies to pursue aggressive on-line only strategies linked to strong face-to-face events of which (unlike magazines) they can have 100% control. I know the ABM Leadership group was very impressed with the numbers that Global Sources' Merle Hinrichs shared with them on the percentage of business that group is doing online and the incredibly fast growth of its face-to-face activities."
P.S. Until January 31, FIPP offers an attractive early bird discount, so hurry up!

James O'Shea wants the LATimes To Be Web-Smart
On Wednesday (24-Jan-207) James O'Shea unveiled a major initiative "designed to expand the audience and revenue generated by the newspaper's website, saying the newspaper is in 'a fight to recoup threatened revenue that finances our news gathering'." He urged the The Times roughly 940 journalists to throw of a bunker mentality and view the latimes.com the primary channel for delivering news.
They LATimes received their wake-up call last autumn 2006, where the so called 'Spring Street committee found out (in a 7-page report) the LATimes "as a news organization, we are not web-savvy. If anything, we are web-stupid."
Some findings from this report:
- Understaffing. Latimes.com employs about 18 "talented and dedicated" editorial employees, only a fraction of the 200 employees at the Washington Post's website and the 50 employed by the New York Times' site.
- Creaky technology that has made it impossible for latimes.com to host live chats between readers and journalists and to let readers customize stock tables or weather reports.
- Failure to integrate the newspaper's large news staff into operations at the web, contributing to delays in posting breaking news.
- Latimes.com is rarely first to post news on the Internet
If your online operation is understaffed, you are rarely first putting news on the Net, use creaky technology, have not managed integration, ....

Die Winter 2006 / 2007 Ausgabe (Volume 60, 4 Band) des Nieman Reports (Nieman Foundation for Journalism at Harvard) ist erschienen, wie immer mit interessanten und lesenswerten Beiträgen zu Newsjournalismus, Journalismus, Community Building, usw.
mit mehr als 40 Beiträge unter den Rubriken
- Sensing the Change
- Pushing Forward
- Building Community
- Finding Our Footing
- Expanding Our Reach
- Converging on the Web
- Exploring New Connections
- Taking Words
Melissa Ludtke schreibt im Vorwort:
"Journalism is on a fast-paced, transformative journey, its destination still unknown. That the Web and other media technologies are affecting mightily the practice of journalism is beyond dispute. Less clear is any shared vision of what the future holds. Newsrooms are being hollowed out, and editors who resist such cutbacks are losing their jobs. Digital video cameras and tape recorders replace reporters' notebooks as newspapers—and other news organizations—train staff in multimedia storytelling. In this issue, words about journalists' experiences in the digital era transport our vision forward, while our eye takes us on a visual voyage back to a time when newspapers wove communities together.

Deloitte Media Sector's Top Predictions 2007 Now Online
as we mentioned here before, Deloitte's TMT Trends 2007 are to be published 'later in January'. Now they are online!
10 Emerging Trends Sure To Transform The Media Landscape - says Deloitte -
1. Making digital user-generated content useful—opportunistic media companies may reap the benefit from user-generated content.
2. Profiting from participation in television—effective use of participation may have a significant impact on audiences, loyalty and revenues.
3. Cracking China's media sector—media companies with precision, patience and understanding could prosper in China.
4. Paper, pixels and profits—attaining the right balance between releasing content as paper or pixels could lead to a profitable coexistence.
5. The digital tail comes in many shapes and forms—the long tail may get longer but the thick, short start of it may be most productive.
6. Analog apples and digital oranges—balanced and directly comparable statistics of traditional and new media are essential to providing a clear comparison of the strength of each.
7. Media’s never-ending chase for value—media companies need to second guess where the public's readiness to pay for content is going to lie.
8. Fifteen megabytes of fame, one gigabyte of privacy—social network's commercial opportunity may be more around offering paid-for privacy than free fame.
9. Video-on-demand may leave you waiting—video-on-demand may not be ripe for exploitation as typical broadband speeds mean walking to the video store may still be a quicker way of watching a blockbuster.
10. Virtuanomics—the real world value of virtual world transactions will continue to rise but remain relatively minor.

Nieman Foundation at Harvard: Goodbye Gutenberg
Die Winter 2006 / 2007 Ausgabe (Volume 60, 4 Band) des Nieman Reports (Nieman Foundation for Journalism at Harvard) ist erschienen, wie immer mit interessanten und lesenswerten Beiträgen zu Newsjournalismus, Journalismus, Community Building, usw.
mit mehr als 40 Beiträge unter den Rubriken
- Sensing the Change
- Pushing Forward
- Building Community
- Finding Our Footing
- Expanding Our Reach
- Converging on the Web
- Exploring New Connections
- Taking Words
Melissa Ludtke schreibt im Vorwort:
"Journalism is on a fast-paced, transformative journey, its destination still unknown. That the Web and other media technologies are affecting mightily the practice of journalism is beyond dispute. Less clear is any shared vision of what the future holds. Newsrooms are being hollowed out, and editors who resist such cutbacks are losing their jobs. Digital video cameras and tape recorders replace reporters' notebooks as newspapers—and other news organizations—train staff in multimedia storytelling. In this issue, words about journalists' experiences in the digital era transport our vision forward, while our eye takes us on a visual voyage back to a time when newspapers wove communities together.

Nicht falsch, nur hinrissig - die neue Image Kampagne des BDZV
Der BDZV wirbt gegen sich, seine Mitglieder und seine eigenen Ansprüche. Unter anderem mit einem Zeitungsausriß wie

"Schon nach der Jahrestagung des Zeitungsverlegerverbandes BDZV machte ich mir ernsthaft Sorgen um die Branche, die mein Frühstück bezahlt. Diese Sorgen sind nun größer denn je, seit ich das heutige Handelsblatt, Seite 17, aufgeschlagen habe ..."
Thomas Knüwer's Beispiel Osama bin Laden:
Zitat:
"Steigende Kurse - dann Osama bin Laden - fallende Kurse. Einfacher Zusammenhang, versteht doch jeder. 9/11 und so. Nur: So stimmt das eben nicht. Die Kurse fielen schon vorher.

says Liz Gannes on GigaOM
"Newsweek has already declared 2007 year of the widget, and lots of little companies are hard at work, trying to make it all real. Israeli startup Musestorm, is launching a platform later this week that will allow you to widgetize any RSS feed, and create web and desktop widgets for Yahoo and Google amongst other platforms. It promises mobile and IM are on the way.
Musestorm has tied up deals with other widgeteers to allow for easily adding Musestorm widgets to PageFlakes, Snipperoo, and Weebly. Like Widgetbox ... "

In eigener Sache: eMails an uns und keine Reaktion?
Leider sind wir von den Problemen im eMail Service bei 1&1 (durch die Integration von Schlund + Partner) auch betroffen.
Der Backlog hat sich inzwischen schon reduziert, es wird aber voraussichtlich noch bis Sonntag dauern bis alles abgearbeitet ist. Aber - entgegen den Ankündigungen / Statements der 1&1 Supportmitarbeiter auf Heise.de - scheinen dabei doch einige eMails unter die Räder gekommen zu sein.
Wenn Sie uns seit dem letzten Wochenende (seit 15.01.) eine oder mehrere eMails geschickt haben, auf die wir bisher noch nicht geantwortet haben, senden Sie uns bitte sicherheitshalber eine Kopie der ursprünglichen eMail.
Wir entschuldigen uns für den Mail-Serverausfall.
P.S.
Warum 1&1 seine Kunden nicht direkt informiert und die Sache Heise und den Heise Diskussionsforen überlässt?
Wir sind seit Anfang 2002 bei Schlund & Partner, waren bisher mit dem Service zufrieden und das ist der erste (größere) Ausfall

Newspapers Online Success With Blogging
To push or pledge your editors and reporters to blog or to replace them lightheaded with bloggers produced many failures in foolhardy blogging ventures of newspapers and magazines (at least I could make up a big list of failures here e.g. Handelsblatt Global Blogging).
But it looks like, that if it is done wisely and with the readers and writers in focus, it can also produce (the much needed) traffic on publishers website. We mentioned some examples before (e.g. the NYT) .
According to a recent Nielsen//NetRatings report (Press release, PDF):
- The number of people reading Internet blogs on the top 10 U.S. newspaper sites grows 210 percent per December from a year ago
- Unique visitors to blog sites affiliated with the largest Internet newspapers rose to 3.8 million in December 2006 from 1.2 million viewers a year earlier
- Blog pages accounted for 13 percent of overall visits to newspaper sites in that month, up from 4 percent a year earlier (total visitors to the top 10 rose 9 percent to 29.9 million.

These are organizations that give their volunteers and members a voice and get out of the way. They're pros at mobilizing awareness online. They're experimentors. Innovators. On a mission. Tey're fearless ..."

Martin Roell schliesst seinen E-Business Weblog
"Herrschaften,
es war eine gute Zeit mit Euch. Unsere Wege trennen sich hier. Ich schließe das E-Business Weblog ..." schreibt Martin Röll heute in seinem Blog.
Mit seinem Weblog und seinen Diskussionsbeiträgen hat Martin Röll einen gewissen "Kultstatus" und eingeschworene Anhängerschaft erworben (und wohl auch ein wenig genossen).
Dass er im Aufbruch war, konnten aufmerksame Blognutzer schon länger wahrnehmen. Im Blog an den Themen, der Frequenz und spätestens als er auch im Blog aus der 'Zukunft' wieder in der 'Gegenwart' (Sub-Heading) angekommen war.
Danke lieber Martin Röll und weiterhin viel Erfolg und jede Menge Spaß! Man sieht sich!
Oh my life / is changing everyday / In every possible way

India Citizen Journalism Portal: merinews
Pallavi Goorha writes on exchange4media.com:
"Merinews.com looks ahead in 2007 with more interactive content and citizen participation."
Quote:
"Vipuk Kant Upadhyay, founder and editor-in-chief explains: "I started this concept of citizen journalism portal last year in May. We went live in June. I started this portal as I felt there was lot of vacuum in the Internet space. We have around 800 citizens of the country who are contributing on the site [...] It has been quite good. We get two and half lakh hits (equals 250.000 hits) per day and 10,000 unique visitors ..."

From Merinews about statement:
"Merinews is a common platform to share news and debate over views and opinions. It is India’s first news portal based on the concept of Citizen Journalism where every citizen can be a prospective reporter. It takes essentials from both media – the Internet and conventional journalism – and tries to dissolve the hierarchical line between the journalist and the reader ..."

Does Media Know: Bloggers and Journalists Are Not One
Joey Alarilla wrote at the CNETAsia Babelmachine (and before on his Blog):
Quote:
"Right now, we're seeing two kinds of responses (from old media). One response is apparently
- Old Media thinking: "Hey, I have these popular columnists or newscasters. I'm sure they'll also be a hit as bloggers."
The other is
- Old Media taking in more bloggers so as to attract new readers, the idea presumably being that the blogger will know what the new audience wants, and that he will bring along loyal readers of his site who otherwise might never have been interested in the publication.
It will be interesting to see how this situation will play out, and I really don't see just one approach proving to be the right way to go. They might be stopgap measures, but they won't amount to much unless a publication reinvents itself for the Web. Still, I'd like to see media owners actually realizing when their old stars are not the ones best suited for the online world ..."

Spiegel Online habe in 2006 mit 'Spiegel Online' einen Umsatz von knapp 15 Millionen Euro und eine zweistellige Umsatzrendite erwirtschaftet.

Auch das Online-Angebot des Manager Magazins habe im vergangenen Jahr den Break Even Punkt erreicht, sagte von Bismarck. Zugleich bestätigte er Überlegungen über neue Online-Angebote [...]"

'WSJ' Mitarbeiter bezweifeln die 'Weisheit' ihres Arbeitgebers Dow Jones - mit einer 'NY Times' Anzeige
Jennifer Saba berichtet auf Editors&Publisher (2-Jan-2006):
" While Dow Jones is touting the debut of a skinnier Wall Street Journal today, many employees at the paper want to see more heft. The union representing staffers at the Journal took out an ad today in a rival, The New York Times, calling into question Dow Jones’ commitment to quality journalism.
"This size of the paper isn't the only thing shrinking at the Wall Street Journal," reads the headline of the ad accompanied by a hand dangling a miniature version of the paper. "Today the publishers are unveiling a smaller paper in a bid to save money," the ad continues. "Unfortunately, if the newspaper's owner, Dow Jones & Co., has its way, the quality of the paper is also in danger of shrinking ... "

Wie würde das hier bei uns aussehen?
Zum Beispiel, wenn sich die Mitarbeiter der Holtzbrinck Gruppe/ Handelsblatt Gruppe aufregen, warum Stephan von Holtzbrinck, Michael Grabner und Konstantin Urban (jetzt) über 50 Euro und deutlich unter 100 Mio. Euro - wahrscheinlich so um die 80/85 Mio. Euro für ein Studentenverzeichnis (studiVZ) - investieren und ein paar Ideen liefern, wie man damit was Vernünftiges für die Leser/Nutzer, den Nutzen & die Qualität des Angebots, die Sicherung und Entwicklung des Verlags und der Arbeitsplätze tun könnte?
Sprudeln die Gewinne so reichlich, dass man händeringend nach kurzfristig realisierbaren Abschreibungsmöglichkeiten sucht?

What is a Placeblog
Lisa Williams runs one of this Hyperlocals News & Community sites. It is H20town (the Water-town community, MA) and now she has founded placeblogger a placeblog network and promotion tools .. She explains:
"What is a Placeblog
A placeblog is an act of sustained attention to a particular place over time. It can be done by one person, a defined group of people, or in a way that’s open to community contribution. It’s not a newspaper, though it may contain random acts of journalism. It’s about the lived experience of a place
Placeblogs are sometimes called 'hyperlocal sites' because some of them focus on news events and items that cover a particular neighborhood in great detail -- and in particular, places that might be too physically small or sparsely populated to attract much traditional media coverage. Because of this, many people have associated them with the term 'citizen journalism,' or journalism done by non-journalists.
Placeblogs, however, are about something broader than news alone. They're about the lived experience of a place. That experience may be news, or it may simply be about that part of our lives that isn't news but creates the texture of our daily lives: our commute, where we eat, conversations with our neighbors, the irritations and delights of living in a particular place among particular people. However, when news happens in a community, placeblogs often cover those events in unique and nontraditional ways, and provide a community watercooler to discuss those events.
Placeblogs spring from a fiercely non-generic America that's not about big-box retailers or the type of polarizing discussion about politics, culture, and the economy that's the product of journalism that happens at the 30,000 foot level. Often, they are a delightful and vivid look at cities, towns, and neighborhoods from an insider's point of view. Collecting this list -- and getting to know these places via the authentic, quirky, and funny voices of their placeblogs -- has been a wonderful experience. I hope that you'll enjoy this way of getting to know America at sidewalk level as much as I have. "
The launch package includes a top ten list of the best placeblogs in the US…
1. Baristanet, Montclair, NJ
2. Edhat, Santa Barbara, CA
3. Fresno Famous, Fresno, CA
4. Westport Now, Westport, CT
5. ChiTown Daily News, Chicago, IL
6. New Haven Independent, New Haven, CT
7. Gotham Gazette, New York, NY
8. Philly Future, Philadelphia, PA
9. MNSpeak, Minneapolis/St. Paul, MN
10. Duke City Fix, Albuquerque, NM
…and a directory organized by states & countries so you can see if there’s one of the 1.300 or so placeblogs near or not so near to you (incl. 3 from China and 5 from Germany).
