Behind AOL's Ad Blitz
(washingtonpost.com)
01/26/2004 10:58 PM

washingtonpost.com - One year ago, America Online warned Wall Street that 2003 would be a sluggish "reset" year, pledging that growth would return to the beleaguered enterprise this year. The Dulles-based firm appears on track to show improved financial results, but not necessarily because its business is taking off again.

AOL's Big Plan: Become A Me Too Portal


AOL's Big Plan: Become A Me Too Portal 04/22/2004 09:07 AM
Apparently, AOL's big plan to turn things around and save the company is to go back to 1998 and turn themselves into yet another "portal" so that they, too, can take advantage of the return of online advertising dollars. It's not entirely clear why anyone needs another portal or why a "me too" play is all that compelling, but it does explain AOL's recent decision to drop some of the walls from their walled garden. Still, when your grand plan to save the world is to bring your site up to date with what all your competitors did five years ago, it seems like a pretty weak strategy.

AOL's Got CDs Being Returned By Mail


AOL's Got CDs Being Returned By Mail 04/16/2004 06:32 PM
You may recall our recent story about just how many "free hours" CDs and DVDs AOL sends. Well, now, a California politician is trying to force AOL to take back the discs... and pay for postage. A law being introduced here would re quire any promotional CD sent through the mail to include postage-paid envelopes for shipping them back to the original company. Of course, perhaps what AOL should do is include postage paid envelopes for others on their list. Then, if you got a CD you didn't want, you would just be passing it on to the next person (though, I guess you would then need another postage-paid envelope included for the next person... and so on).

AOL's Cheap Computer Hides Expensive
Service?
08/12/2004 01:28 PM
How desperate is AOL getting in trying to slow down the rapid decline in their subscriber lists? Knowing that Wall Street will freak if they dare to lower their dialup prices to anything even remotely more competitive, they're now trying to sell a cheap computer to hide the high dialup costs. The way it works is you get a very basic computer for about $300, but you need to agree to a year's worth of AOL's $24/month dialup service. The difference between that and a cut-rate dialup pretty much wipes away any "savings" from this cheap computer. However, don't tell that to AOL. They're insisting that the most expensive dialup service around, that's bleeding customers at faster and faster rates isn't expensive at all. They don't have any reason for it, other than they say so: "I categorically deny the service is expensive." Well, that's convincing. I hate to break it to AOL, but it's not people inside AOL who determine whether or not your service is expensive. It's your competitors who consistently price well below what you offer, and your customers who see greener (cheaper, faster) pastures elsewhere.
