Profitable newspaper websites
I’m looking for information on how newspaper websites make money. Can someone point me in the right direction?

Re: Profitable newspaper websites
It’s pretty simple really. They
1) sell subscriptions to private, member’s only sections
2) they sell advertising space on their sites, just as they do for the printed version (if existant)

ANd, of course, they sell subscriptions to the (hardcopy) publication.
(At least, that’s what we do with our magazine :) )

Do you know of any studies or references on what kind of revenues can be generated?

if you’re a student; best thing to do would be to call a few different newspapers, and explain them you need some general info on revenue models, etc.
