WASHINGTON, May 8, 2006 (PRIMEZONE) -- FierceMarkets (www.fiercemarkets.com) today announced that its FierceMoCo newsletter has been renamed FierceMobileContent. The news outlet has acquired more than 10,000 subscribers in less than four months. Launched in January 2006, FierceMobileContent has quickly established itself as a must-read daily briefing for executives, investors and other insiders involved in mobile content, which includes mobile gaming, mobile marketing, mobile video, and ringtones.
"With a growth rate of more than 2,500 new readers each month, FierceMobileContent is clearly filling a need for media, marketing, and entertainment executives seeking to extend their services to a mobile platform," said FierceMarkets President Jeff Giesea. "There is a sense of excitement about the revenue potential of mobile content, yet substantial confusion about how to capture it. FierceMobileContent is designed to alleviate this confusion and keep our readers ahead of the curve."
Besides FierceMobileContent, FierceMarkets publishes 11 other market-specific email newsletters serving growth sectors in the life sciences, IT, and telecom industries. Earlier this year, the company passed a combined circulation of 350,000, with a growth of 50,000 subscribers in the first quarter of 2006 alone.
Other recent milestones include the launch of FierceIPTV in November 2005, and the relaunch of IT-Wireless, which was acquired from Emerge Media in August.
