AP - Many online readers must complete registration forms with various kinds of personal data before seeing their virtual newspaper. The requirement has irked some readers and privacy advocates, led to the creation of Web sites to foil the system, and could be failing to provide the solid demographic information the system was intended to capture.

I know what I do when I encounter a news site that requires registration I go elsewhere. Why do I want to entrust a news company with my personal demographic information when I can read the same story on a news site that does not require registration. Wired takes a look at sites offering ways to bypass site registration and Techdirt offers commentary on the sheer stupidity of news sites that hide their content from behind a login.

Why Online Newspapers Require
Registration: Spam

Why Online Newspapers Require
Registration: Spam 09/20/2004 01:24 PM
Last week we wrote about John C. Dvorak's belief that newspapers are adding registration to make themselves believe that their paper business isn't really threatened by the web, and Rich Skrenta at Topix has picked up on this idea and explained the two big reasons why newspapers require registration. The first one agrees with Dvorak, suggesting a typical Innovator's Dilemma response (basically, subconsciously denying that this new medium could be a threat, and acting in ways that make the new medium look worse to themselves, rather than thinking about ways to embrace it). The second, however, is the main reason most sites require registration: spam. Direct mail marketing companies are offering ridiculous ($300 CPM) fees for email lists of registered newspaper readers for spam purposes. Never mind the fact that many of those email addresses are bogus dirty data, the newspapers see cash from spam. This isn't, as they claim, about having more detailed demographic info to "more accurately target advertising," but about having your email address to sell to spammers. Once again, BugMeNot becomes a useful anti-spam tool. It seems hard to believe selling email addresses to spammers could be a successful long-term business strategy.

Is Online Registration For News A Ploy
To Make Online News Look Bad? 09/17/2004 02:31 PM
These days, I very rarely agree with anything written by John C. Dvorak, who seems to be spending his time not really understanding what's happening in technology. However, his latest column has an interesting theory. We've been talking a lot about how many newspapers have a backwar ds thinking policy requiring registration just to read the same AP and Reuters stories everyone else has. The public claim is that they're doing this to give their advertisers more data about their visitors, but the amount of dirty data that goes into these databases suggests that doesn't make much sense -- and could get them in legal trouble. Others point out that online editions are really doing this to get email for the sake of selling their mailing lists to marketing spammers, which does make some sense, though isn't a particularly well thought-out strategy for long term success. Dvorak's take, however, is that newspapers are doing this to keep people out on purpose. The idea is that newspapers want to play down their online operations, to show that their paper editions are still much more important. He believes they don't want the online editions to be profitable, as that would mean serious changes for their business. If true, this is an incredibly stupid position, basically trying to convince themselves that news isn't moving online when it really is. It's even worse than just not believing what's happening -- it's working to screw up the data they use themselves in figuring out what's happening. Honestly, though, this seems unlikely. It would involve too much thought. It seems, more likely, that the push towards online registration is from newspapers who haven't really thought the issues through, but who think this will somehow pay off.

There Are Alternatives To User
Registration 06/24/2004 06:03 PM
Just last week we wrote about how many more newspaper sites were making the mistake of forcing users to register, even though it wasn't helping them at all. First, it was drastically cutting their traffic by keeping out all the casual visitors (and links from blogs or other news aggregation sources) who don't want to register. That is, it's reducing their ad inventory. Second, even that additional info that they claim would help them sell more targeted ads is wrong, since many users just use bogus information. So, they get fewer users and useless info. This doesn't seem like a recipe for success. Earlier this week, I sent a note to that effect to the Sydney Morning Herald, which is trying to implement a registration scheme. They wrote me back, ignoring my points, and simply cutting and pasting the reason for adding registration. Steve Outing has written up a piece for Editor & Publisher explaining why online newspapers don't need to go to forced registration. First, he points out that one of the main problems with forced registration is that the users don't feel they're really getting anything of value -- and it clearly turns off casual readers. Instead, he suggests setting up offerings that add real value to get users to register, while still letting the casual reader in free. In that way, you also get rid of much of the dirty data, by giving users a reason to be honest. It seems like a smart solution: you don't lose any visitors, and for a core subset of loyal readers you get good data. It's so intelligent, in fact, that most online newspapers will ignore the idea.
