SmartEdition Overview
For your privately branded digital edition, NewspaperDirect offers SmartEdition, powered by PressDisplay technology. Along with PressDisplay’s advanced digital features, SmartEdition offers you a fully customizable digital edition platform with powerful and proprietary back office reporting and analysis tools that help you optimally manage your content and advertisers.

- Reading Map: This revolutionary technology allows publishers to analyze reading patterns throughout their publications, gaining valuable insights into what elements of their publications are most, and least, read. Reading Map reports enable publishers to measure the impact of editorial content, layout and advertising on reading behavior, and use that intelligence to increase the value they provide to their readers and advertisers.
- Ad Value Map: Expanding on Reading Map technology, Ad Value Map calculates a value for each page in an issue, letting advertisers see the optimal pages on which to place ads in printed media in order to maximize their ad’s exposure and ROI.
