Telegraph paywall initiative is an interesting strategic shift #15

Telegraph paywall initiative is an interesting strategic shift

Chris Evans: seeking deeper engagement.

The telegraph has recently announced that it will be putting its premium online content up behind a paywall. This means that a large amount of their content is still free for the public to view, , specifically 85%  although only premium content possibly some videos. This was also implemented to safeguard journalists jobs as online newspapers struggle to make money from advertising revenue. 

I believe it could  be a risky move to out some content behind a paywall, for example when the sun went completely behind a paywall they suffered significantly although the telegraph are only putting a small amount of their content behind the paywall which could be a success but only time will tell.
