:yikes

 

ok, mam as a card for byin stuf, send me a mesige wen yor redy an ten is yors un rite to vew is myne. wil yu be abel to tak card paymunt?

 

Looking at your Twitter account it states that if you purchase the first year before 24th June, you'll get the 2nd year free??? also, the 9.99, is that in $$$ or £££.

Probably a silly question, but is this aimed more at the British public or the American's?

Either way, it does represent good value, I used to get an eMag from a former F1 Racing team and was always a good read, so I've no issue with an online publication. I'm pretty sure I'll be buying in!

Keep us posted on when we can start to subscribe.

Can't say it's worth subscribing for me, unfortunately. I get all my boxing news and articles from various websites.

But best of luck with it all!

 

dont be a cheapskate

 

You only need to look at the image licensing prices on Getty or Corbis for example to see just how expensive it is to put a magazine together.

For example, for the Archie Moore feature - even for very old images, which are less expensive, you will be paying £185 to use a licensed photo from Bettmann/CORBIS.

This is why these magazines are so difficult to put together. If you don't buy in your images you guaranteed to end up with a lawsuit in your lap, but if you do keep it above board you need cash flow and subscribers.

Buncey wouldn't mind me telling you that even established printed magazines like Boxing Monthly have to drop images due to cost.

 

I'll definitely be getting this, boxing e-zines are the way forward, the way we consume news has changed. For the interviews you seem to have lined up I can see it's definately worth the price, although keeping a boxing magazine fresh will be a tough challenge you'll need to look at every aspect of the sport from the local gyms to the big fights, there needs to be something that everyone can enjoy.

As an idea, what about producing it into an APP? That updates daily with the latest news on boxing?

 

Sounds brilliant, mate. I cannot wait for this, you guys are doing a great service to the sport and I wish you all the best. :good

 

Yep magazines are pointless for news but I think if you want proper quality in-depth articles then you can't beat BN or BM.
