For many year, access to our Display Daily articles was free to anyone without registration or logging-on. However, this was supported by our long term sponsors and supports, especially the 3LCD organisation. Sadly, with the impact of the pandemic, that organisation saw its marketing spend fall and we have not been successful in gaining another long term sponsor.
Although we have some occasional mailings and promotions to our subscribers, we needed to raise revenue to pay the costs of running the site.
Almost a year ago, we expanded our ‘What Bob Saw’ service to a daily mail service to subscribers that looked at news from a wide range of sources to keep customers informed about what was going on in the display industry. The service provides 30 to 40 news items per week, identified as significant or just interesting for either commercial or technical reasons. We are very grateful to our subscribers to this service.
As well as the ‘What Bob Saw’ articles, the service included free access to recent Display Daily articles as well as those WBS stories. Free registrations are limited to just two free Display Daily articles from those published in the last year. Earlier Display Daily articles are freely available to all, as are the press releases we publish and lots of other archive material.
Now, in response to requests from readers, we have introduced a new Display Daily only service that allows access to all Display Daily articles, without the daily ‘What Bob Saw’ articles. The cost of this access has been set at a very low level of $29 per year – the same order of magnitude as a cup of coffee per month. The What Bob Saw access is also very good value at $99 per year. We also have group subscriptions – contact us for details.
To sign up for this new access, you can go here.
If you would like to see the site made freely available to all again, please get your company’s marketing department to contact me. I’d be happy to discuss with them how we can help boost their brand! (BR)
(Note the service known as “What Bob Saw” we re-branded as ‘Display Insider’.
(Note this article is outside the paywall and can be accessed without using up one of your two free articles per month)
