description In recent years, an increasing number of newspapers have plunged into electronic publishing on the World Wide Web platform. This study gives an overview of WWW newspaper publishing. Reaching more readers is the most important reason for going online. Yet newspaper publishers have not been successful in getting online readership information. Since online subscriptions have not been materialized yet, WWW publishing is currently dependent on revenues brought in by advertising and Internet-related services. Charging for archives may be the next potential income source. The Internet, being a new medium, allows newspaper publishers to be creative in presenting their WWW newspapers. The WWW paper also offers new services like archives, search engines, and forums/chat facilities; thus making the web version unlike the print. The newspaper industry, nevertheless, remains optimistic about the future of both the print and the WWW newspapers.
