Why short-form publishing
A live publishing or live-blogging strategy is particularly effective in maintaining reader interest, driving traffic, and encouraging subscriptions by providing a continuous stream of engaging and informative content tailored to the audience's preferences and interests.
With Live Center, publishers are able to:
Appeal to Gen Z: Short-form content feeds are particularly appealing for Gen Z, by adopting their preferences for digestible and multimedia-rich information.
Informative reporting: Allows editors to tackle the dynamic and multifaceted nature of events and ensure continuous reader engagement through rich storytelling elements.
Chronological timeline: Live blogs serve as a timeline for events, incorporating links to detailed articles or podcasts while enlightening readers on complex issues.
Boost audience engagement: Features like commenting, Q&A sessions, and polls foster two-way communication and community building, offering immersive experiences with live scores, videos, and charts.
Building returning reader habits: The dynamic and constant nature of live feeds cuts through the noise and caters to the demand for a constant flow of fresh content. The approach is strategically designed to enhance website traffic and insert call-to-actions within the live blog (i.e. to podcasts or app downloads) to convert readers to loyal subscribers.
Seamless editorial workflow with pre-built integrations
Thanks to a built-in integration of Live Center with Arc XP, journalists can effortlessly launch their live blog from within the Arc XP Composer and switch between long-form and short-form coverage as easily as they would switch between tabs on a browser. Data, access rights, and formats are all synchronized automatically, ensuring a cohesive experience for readers, who will perceive no difference in content regardless of the editor used.
