The daily news source elEconomista celebrates six years today. Immersed in the biggest crisis since the Great Depression, the context for its development could not have been more opportune. The public demands rigorous and accessible information presented in nimble, straightforward language. The paper seeks to cover subjects that can be obscure at times such as the economy, corporations, finance or the stock markets.
It calls for deep analysis, especially about the international economic scene. The influence of our articles and forums in very clear in the realms of both politics and business. For these reasons, our readers have supported us over the years. Nearly six million users visit the website each month, and more than 30,000 readers utilize the print edition.
These distribution figures boost our reputation in the national press industry and put us in the same league with the biggest communication groups in Spain. Our mid-crisis advertising earnings are a testament to this view as well.
From 2007 to 2011, advertising earnings have fallen 50% on average for the press media, while elEconomista has increased its earnings by 40%. Add to this fact our primacy among online portals to news about the Spanish economy; we can surely affirm that elEconomista is well-positioned to maneuver through the crisis in better shape than most of the Spanish press.
With a new design, we acknowledge and show deep appreciation for the support we have received from our readers during the past six years. You are the fuel and support behind this project.
