Our online platforms take top spot
From humble beginnings in
2010 with a single title website, georgherald.com, the Group Editors online stable has grown into a digital powerhouse - a source of local, trustworthy news for readers across the globe.
Our six title websites, georgeherald.com, knysnaplettherald.com, mosselbayadvertiser.com, oudtshoorncourant.com, suidkaapforum.com and graaffreinetadvertiser.com, collectively gain over two million page views per month - something we are extremely proud of.
And in June of this year, that total was almost three million!
When compared to 68 title websites in the Caxton stable for June, georgeherald.com came out tops:

Servaas de Kock, sales and marketing director, says in these times of uncertainty, people are more than ever looking for a trusted brand to read verified news.
“We are very proud of the editorial and digital efforts our teams are producing on a daily basis in difficult circumstances to ensure that our communities stay informed.
“The stats also show that we do not just have a loyal local following, but also a national and international audience.”
The Group Editors title websites are complemented by various social media platforms, including Facebook, Instagram and Twitter collectively drawing more than
250 000 followers. This is where our communities get to engage, interact and share their opinions with us and one another.
“We are so proud of our digital platforms,” says online editor Tanya Watson. “Being a trusted local news source has always been important, but even more so in trying times. Getting the news to our readers as it happens, is our top priority.”
