The Federal crosses 1 crore page views a month
Google Analytics data reveal The Federal, with its four state-wise Indian language editions, hit the milestone in October 2024
The Federal's page views have crossed 1 crore, or 10 million, per month. The digital news platform hit the milestone in October 2024, Google Analytics data reveal.
"It has not been easy to achieve this in a crowded digital media landscape. If there is one group of people we need to thank, it is our readers, viewers, and listeners," said a press statement.
Five editions
Having launched the English language version of The Federal in March 2019, the digital news platform made a foray into editions tailored for Telangana, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh and Delhi — in Telugu, Kannada and Hindi.
“We began this journey 11 months back, and launched state-wise editions one-by-one, the latest being The Federal Desh, in Hindi, in May,” said NC Rajamani, CEO of New Gen Media Pvt Ltd, the publisher of The Federal.
Overwhelming response
"The response from our audience has been truly overwhelming," said S Srinivasan, the Editor-in-Chief of The Federal. “We consider it a recognition of our credibility and our continuing attempt to remain bipartisan at a time when it is easy to fall prey to polarising narratives," he added.
There are more plans in the offing. "This would mean more language versions of The Federal across many other states, incorporating newer technologies that would mean more offerings for our audience," the statement said.
"And, finally, the raison d’etre of our existence — to do better stories in the form of ground reports and long-form reporting. We hope the audience will stay with us as they have been for five years since inception," it added.
