DIGITAL TECHNOLOGY
Mobile, Smart Speakers, Apps, Websites
Media Sound Holdings recognises the importance of Digital Media; from our group websites that deliver some of the most interactive and innovative features to engage with our audiences.
Media Sound Holdings invests heavily in news and information and our digital offering reflects this with news lead websites sites that keep our audience up to date with the latest goings on. Using this strategy of continual updating sites we always have fresh content and this had lead to us receiving an online reach of millions per month, making our digital platforms a very attractive proposition for advertisers. We use traditional site advertising but also can crate interactive site takeovers, video commercial and more to ensure all of our clients reach there on-line objectives.
To reenforce our commitment to the digital marketplace we have worked with developers to deliver news based apps for both the Apple and Android platforms. These apps not only provide continually updating news but also allow the user to be notified of breaking news and promotions via notifications. The apps provide many additional features such as the ability for e-commerce. Many of our website and app users also use these platforms to access our radio stations via live audio streams.
We, as a company, are always striving to be ahead of digital trends and due to this we have a very strong social media presence with millions of users connection to us via our facebook, instagram and twitter platforms. We not only post in the traditional sense but use live video to ensure that not only our reach is good but the time spent on our platforms is above average.
Smart speakers. Over the past few years more listeners to our radio stations are accessing content via Google Home and Amazon Alexa Smart speakers, in response to this we worked with a third party company to develop our own Amazon ‘Skill’ allowing easy access to listen just by asking. Listeners can also ask which songs we are playing and which songs we have played.
The future. We recognise that the digital world never stands still and are constantly pushing the boundaries to ensure we will be at the forefront of the technology as it evolves.
