A web magazine is a linear, finite edition of a magazine, just like the app edition. Readers can turn the pages and progress through the magazine the same as they would an app or print magazine.
Unlike an app edition, it’s accessed on the Internet through a web browser, meaning it’s accessible on any device and any platform, without restrictions. And unlike print magazines, it also delivers access to a library of all past articles, instantly available with just a click.
And it’s built using responsive design, so it functions well on a tablet, mobile device, or on a desktop computer. There is no app download required, and it is viewed the same no matter which device you are on.
Though it’s a magazine on a website, it’s not a “magazine website,” which is not a magazine at all, but rather a collection of posts that are derivative and/or identical to content found in the magazine, but not ordered in a linear fashion like a magazine.
