TheBusinessDesk hits 10,000 on 1st Birthday

THEBUSINESSDESK.COM has hit 10,000 registered users in the North West on its first birthday.

The milestone makes the news website, along with its sister site in Yorkshire, the fastest growing business media in the North.

TheBusinessDesk became the first free regional online business news service in the UK when it launched in Yorkshire in November 2007.

Following great success there, the North West news service launched with a dedicated team of journalists less than a year later.

Growing numbers of business leaders, executives and professionals now turn to TheBusinessDesk for their daily update of regional business news.

Users can choose to receive daily email or text alerts, which arrive before 9am every working day, direct to their desktop, mobile phone, PDA or BlackBerry.

Editor Chris Barry said: “The emphasis has always been on the quality of our audience, not the quantity. So to achieve the figure of 10,000 subscribers who are in senior roles in business in the North West is a milestone we are absolutely delighted with.

“I believe our morning emails and breaking news alerts have made TheBusinessDesk.com an invaluable tool for our users.and we look forward to continuing growth and success.”
