The Digiday Publishing Summit serves as an important indicator for the media industry, focusing this year on AI and platform referral traffic. Media reporters discussed positive developments in social referral traffic, with publishers noting signs of recovery. Additionally, discussions on the political impact of Donald Trump's potential second term are anticipated, with major outlets like BBC and The Economist offering insights into how they tailor their coverage for American audiences. The Economist, for instance, has been working on a campaign aimed at engaging a younger, digital-savvy demographic.
I've been talking to publishers about what they're seeing this year, and it seems like referral traffic is actually starting to come back. I had one publishing exec who literally told me, 'Social referral traffic is back.'
The session that I'm going to be doing with The Economist touches on a brand marketing campaign they've been doing over the past year to sort of reintroduce The Economist to a younger, digital-first audience.
