Why Review the Digital Experience of Readers?
In an ever-evolving digital environment, it is crucial for Times of India to evaluate how it can adapt to new challenges:
- Is it prepared for the challenges of digital reading?
- Can it effectively attract online subscriptions?
- How can it present ads without affecting the reading experience?
- Is there a clear mobile strategy that encourages app downloads?
Current Challenges in User Experience
Cluttered Homepage on Desktop
Readers are overwhelmed by information and advertising when they enter the website. This results in poor visual design and low readability. The content structure needs restructuring to be more scannable and accessible. In contrast, the mobile app and site offer a cleaner design, suggesting the potential to sell valuable content to educational institutions or government entities.
Costs of Mobile Strategies
Maintaining a separate mobile website can be costly. Adopting a responsive web design approach could be more efficient and cost-effective.
Mobile App Downloads
Although the app store shows 10 million downloads, this is misleading, as uninstalls reach 44%, according to AppFlyer data. The lack of an effective mobile strategy is evident, given that most users in India prefer mobile devices over desktop computers. Additionally, 65% of the population lives in areas where English is not the predominant language, limiting the reach of its content.
