Newspapers were just getting used to the news on television when the advent of the Internet was suddenly a decisive blow to the newspaper industry. Most of the newspapers have not been able to withstand the onslaught of the Internet and have been forced to close. Let’s first look at the basic difference between newspapers and electronic news.

Advantages of online news

The advantages of online news are primarily for readers. Some of these advantages are as follows.

Electronic news is much faster than newspapers. The moment something happens anywhere in the world, it is published on the Internet in a matter of seconds. In the case of newspapers, there is a specific time limit for the news to be published in a particular newspaper. Suppose the newspaper is printed at midnight, everything that happens after midnight will probably be published the next day. In such situations, the newspaper offers outdated news to readers who have already accessed the news online.

Any newspaper is published one, two or three times a day at most. On the other hand, electronic news is generally updated several times in 24 hours.

If you have Internet access, you don’t have to wait for the delivery man to deliver the newspaper.

Electronic news is seen as saving paper and helping to conserve nature.

Cons of online news

Online news has some downsides, but they are primarily for newspaper publishers. Subscription and ad fees are greatly reduced for online news. This implies that as the number of online news readers increases, the revenue generation of the newspaper publisher is falling dramatically.

Ways to survive newspapers

There are few ways that newspapers can use to survive the shock of electronic news. Some of the newspapers charge subscription to readers who like to read more than what is offered for free. There is only one “more” link that can be activated and operational after paying some subscription charges. If you don’t pay for the subscription, you can’t activate the “more” link.

Most newspaper publishers have realized that if they want the newspaper to survive they must publish it both in print and online on the Internet.

Apple’s iPad has brought some hope to the newspapers. There are applications that allow the iPad user to access the Internet and also newspapers.

Today it is necessary for the newspaper to make a unique offer to its readers.

The other form of survival for newspaper publishers is through blogging. There is a possibility that charging a subscription can reduce the revenue generated, but at the same time, it is also seen that unique blogs can bring a lot of business to the newspaper publisher.
