Year of the Snake
Welcome to the Year of the Snake. We’d like to thank all of our Metro Publisher clients for their continued trust in us. We’re looking forward to a successful 2025 together.
Here's a recap:
Once again, we launched the new year with the promise that costs will remain the same. That is to say NO price increase! (Prices have been going up everywhere except for Metro Publisher. We do what we can do keep prices stable and have been doing this for over a decade!)
Our custom services team team helped to organize, train, and launch several new publications on Metro Publisher this year.
AI Research and evaluation. AI is all the buzz but what actually makes sense. Our team is testing various systems and will keep you posted about where AI can save you production time.
Additionally, AI is creating many unintended challenges across the Internet, one major priority for our development team remains ongoing protections against AI generated bot traffic. This will undoubtedly continue throughout 2025.
Services and Ecosystem Partners
We have launched a new collaboration with Pigeon on their subscription management and paywall platform. From subscriber management tools, to plan management, to marketing and communication, to flexible paywall options, to analytics, and integrations, Pigeon has everything you need to convert and retain subscribers.
