RTÉ sees 300% increase in mobile penetration. RTÉ websites currently attract about 4.5 million unique visitors per month. These users clock up 135 million page impressions monthly, almost half of which are from mobile devices, up from 15% in 2010. This is testament to the high – speed proliferation and growing popularity of mobile devices.
As a result RTÉ today announced the launch of a new division, RTÉ Digital which will be responsible for leading RTÉ’s overall digital strategy.
A central part of this strategy is to ensure RTÉ’s content is available wherever and whenever the audience requires, it said.
“Audiences are changing dramatically with the advent of new, more affordable and more sophisticated technologies,” says Muirne Laffan, Managing Director, RTÉ Digital. “As the media landscape is evolving, so too is RTÉ The new digital division will bring RTÉ’s content to new audiences in different ways and anticipate the future needs of our users. Whether our audiences want to connect with us on mobile, IPTV, desktop, connected TVs, notebook or on gaming devices, our strategy is to ensure RTÉ content is accessible on whatever device, and everywhere.”
