If your Apple News integration is based on your RSS feed, you won’t have access to Apple News analytics nor will you be able to run advertising on your channel. This limits your monetisation opportunities and makes it harder for your editorial team to understand which content is helping you drive growth on Apple News.
As Apple News offers a unique route to over 145 million monthly active readers, ensuring you’re making the most of all its benefits is worthwhile. While delivering articles to Apple News via an RSS feed allows you to reach that audience, you do it blindly.
Without access to analytics, you won’t know whether your channel is gaining followers, which articles are resonating with Apple News readers, which articles generate the most affiliate link clicks, and any other valuable metrics.
This information is essential to success on Apple News. You can then augment this with FlatPlan’s tools for driving growth on Apple News which will help you convert readers into loyal followers and subscribers.
To upgrade your Apple News integration from an RSS to a fully integrated solution, you’ll need to find your iCloud login, and then get in touch with the FlatPlan team who can get you set up with minimal input from your business.
No matter what stage you're at in your discovery of Apple News, we'll help you get the information you need to make the right decision for your media business.
