Godengo Leads the Way to Online Success for Magazines

They break a milestone with over 100 publications launched online while meeting the growing needs of publishers, advertisers, and readers.

Godengo didn’t set out to beat the odds, but they have a formula that is bolstering today’s print media by specializing in an online publishing platform proven to work extremely well for magazines. This quarter, they exceeded all goals, including launching a record number of sites and adding new experienced staff. This past month, they broke the century mark by launching their 112th site.

Godengo has innovative software that supports the key needs of magazine publishers as they move online. Godengo's accumulated experience and economy of scale enables them to help magazines in a way that meets their needs efficiently and at a surprisingly low cost.

Publishers who care deeply about the quality and integrity of their magazines desire success online to broaden the scope of their readers. Their advertisers are taking notice as they provide more access online to their desired audiences. Their readers appreciate an additional way to access publications they already enjoy with up-to-date information and interactivity.

Charlotte Magazine is a recent addition to the Godengo network. Their Editor and Associate Publisher Richard Thurmond is enthusiastic about their experience. "We're thrilled with the design, added functionality, and revenue opportunities of our new website. Market response has been very positive and traffic is already trending up. Our editorial staff loves the ease of use of the Rivista™ backend. People at Godengo are a pleasure to work with. They're organized and really know their stuff."

According to Peter Stilson, Godengo’s President and CEO, “We have increased the number of publishers by 81% and site implementations increased 44% during the last 12 months. Our clients’ needs are very clear to us. Our software was designed specifically for this market and continued innovations make Godengo the best choice for magazines.”

To support its accelerating growth, Godengo has added Kim Keller, a highly sought-after online professional, as Vice President of Sales. Kim had these insights as a consultant to the magazine industry. “The single most important thing I can do to help their businesses is to provide training to monetize their sites. They will be successful when they create new revenue streams for the future.”

Growth will be accelerating in many areas at Godengo. The number of publishers Godengo works with will grow. New products are ready to launch in the immediate future. Godengo’s success is directly in line with the magazines they are bringing online.
