Digital plays an important part for amplification,
engagement and rich media. We are expanding our media platform making it video-rich and allowing the user's voice a part of the experience of the platform," said Probal Ghosal, Director Amar Ujala, commenting on Amar Ujala's digital vision.
Amar Ujala relaunched its website early this year, with a fully responsive website, clean design, new interactive features and non-intrusive advertising approach. Feature to feature, Amar Ujala has upped the game and matches the best of English news websites, even bettering them, in unique feature sets. This went against the approach taken by most existing Hindi news websites, which were focusing more on quantity of page views, and monetization through distracting and intrusive advertising. Clearly, the innovation and strategic change of approach is working for Amar Ujala.

"The Hindi & other non-English audiences are not credited with taste by most media houses. It is too soon assumed that shabbiness, instant thrill & dumbed-down products will do. As a cultural icon, Amar Ujala sets the standards for Hindi & so we've brought the best practices of global design & packaging with a focus on re-positioning Hindi & its audiences as the aspiration they aspire for," said Arvind Joshi, Creative and Product Head, Amar Ujala Digital Business.
Himanshu Gautam, Business Head Amar Ujala Digital,
explained the importance of the new website in the context of Amar Ujala's business objectives, "This is just the first phase of our roll-out plan, aiming at creating new kinds of rich user experiences, which in turn create high-value monetisation opportunities.
We refuse to commodify our users by linking our business with just page views. Moving beyond display and network, we've built into our digital offering, deeper brand engagement opportunities. But there will be more, stay tuned."
