Free content proves a powerful draw in a profession used to having to pay for news.
Washington, DC (PRWEB) May 7, 2006 -- Inside Higher Ed, the fastest-growing news service for college and university professionals, announced today that it now has over 250,000 unique users per month (as measured by Webtrends). The site’s comprehensive online coverage has drawn faculty and administrative readers across a broad spectrum, from large universities to community colleges and even online schools.
“We’re naturally very pleased with our audience growth, as it shows how much desire there is among educators for a free source of news and job listings” said Publisher Kathlene Collins. “We’ve done a good deal of online marketing to get Inside Higher Ed noticed, but we’ve found that our editorial is driving a huge amount of organic reader growth.”
Since Inside Higher Ed’s official launch a year ago, 341 institutions have used its job listing service to recruit faculty and administrators.
