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.

“Using Live Center, we are able to create a new live blog from scratch in under two minutes to report on the latest news.”

Reaching Revenue Increase

Advertising and affiliate revenue have become an increasingly important piece of the puzzle in publishers’ revenue models. A substantial part of Live Center is how the platform supports publishers’ monetization strategies for a maximum ROI, by:

  • Driving traffic and ad revenue: Live blogs achieve 2x - 4x more page views than regular articles, translating to 2x - 4x more ad revenue
  • Placement of native ads within the live feeds without interrupting the reading flow

  • Driving reader loyalty and conversion by introducing other pieces of content on your site in your live feeds
  • Conversion: Live blogs have up to 2 times higher conversion rate from social media compared to regular articles

A leading Danish news publisher has significantly increased its live blog production using Live Center, which led to a 20-30% increase in overall traffic to the website.
