One publisher, different experiences for different readers.
Subscribers and non-subscribers are two very different audiences — with different needs, different habits, and different value to your business. Yet most publishers show them the exact same homepage. Front Studio lets you give each group the experience that drives loyalty, frequency, and revenue.
Finansavisen was named a WAN-IFRA finalist for "Personalised Homepages – Proven Outcomes" — recognised in both Most Innovative Digital Product and Best Reader Revenue Strategy.
The same site. Two different experiences.
Switch between user groups to see how the homepage adapts in real time.
→ A heavy concentration of plus-articles that reward loyalty. The subscriber gets content that pulls them closer to the brand.
Two user groups. Two distinct strategies.
Knowing what each group needs — and serving it without compromise — is what drives both retention and conversion.
For subscribers
A high share of plus-articles and in-depth pieces that reward loyalty. The homepage feels premium and exclusive — a reminder of why they pay.
- Maximise plus-article density
- Surface loyalty-building content
- Reduce churn by delivering value
- Reward the habit of returning
For non-subscribers
A free-heavy mix that builds frequency and habit. The plus-articles you do show are the ones with the highest conversion rate — not the same as the loyalty articles.
- Maximise free content for frequency
- Show conversion-optimised plus-articles
- Build the habit before the ask
- Lower-churn subscribers result
Habit first, subscription second.
Readers who convert to a paid subscription after first becoming loyal, frequent homepage visitors churn far less than those who subscribe without that habit.
Serve non-subscribers a homepage built to drive frequency — instead of one that pushes for conversion too early — and you lay the foundation for a subscription that lasts.
Not all plus-articles convert equally. We know which ones do.
Tuned for conversion
Non-subscribers see the plus-articles that have historically driven the most conversions — picked out automatically by Front Studio.
Tuned for loyalty
Subscribers see different plus-articles — the ones that build long-term engagement, not necessarily the ones with the highest paywall click-through.
Pairs with a dynamic paywall
You can combine this with a dynamic paywall for publishers who want both — dynamic content selection and dynamic access rules working side by side.
"You get much of what a dynamic paywall delivers — but instead of changing access rules on the fly, we change which content each group sees. It's a lighter touch, and it works alongside your existing paywall."
