Online
All major UK newspapers have web editions which can sometimes include more content than the printed paper.
Newspapers may offer a lot of this content for free, a number – such as The Times - place some or all of their online content behind a paywall, which means readers must pay to access it.
Being able to link to existing web pages allows readers access to additional content which includes archived material.
Online newspapers enjoy a crucial advantage over print versions in that they can be updated in real-time with breaking news. This has made online newspapers more like broadcast media channels that can transmit 24 hours a day.
In 2005, 13 million newspapers were sold daily; by 2015, this figure fell to 7 million.
The availability of newspapers online is partly responsible for this decline but the popularity of An online publication written by an individual or a group of individuals that covers a subject of their choosing, a contraction of the term 'web log'., vlogs (video blogs) and other online content areas have made an impact too.
Recently, The Independent newspaper decided to be an online-only publication.
