PressXchange progress

John Roadnight, May 2016

It is now eighteen months since pressXchange.com became an independent company again when I purchased it back from Haymarket Media.  In that time we have redesigned the site making it easier for both our advertisers and users, we have bought PressCity and continued to develop its amazing extensopro back-office CRM system, we have concentrated on SEO and improved our rankings across every area of graphic arts machinery and we have seen activity on the site grow month by month.

I thought you would like an update on the progress we’ve made.

The number of offset presses has increased by 50% to nearly 1250 machines

  • The number of bindery and finishing presses has increased by 36% to over 860

  • The number of advertisers on the site has grown from 140 to 163

  • pressXchange now receives over 43,000 visits per month with 220,000 page views.  Combined with PressCity visits total  75,000 and page views 360,000

  • Over 176,000 people have now registered on pressXchange since 2000, making us one of the biggest print communities on the globe

  • We come at the top of search engine rankings on over 65% of common graphic arts machinery searches

  • Our combined-databases Newsletters now go to 98,000 “opted-in” print professionals.

I hope you’ll visit us on our stand at Drupa: we aim to make it a place where our friends and customers can meet each other and relax.  If you are amachinery dealer then don’t miss a demonstration of extensopro – a system which will save you time and transform the way you do business.  

Before Drupa we will launch a new section on the site – News from the Dealers – which will focus on our advertisers.  Please send us any press releases about your company, news of installations, sales, personnel changes etc, along with an image or two.  Don’t worry if the English isn’t perfect – we will be happy to knock it into shape.

Everything we do is to ensure that pressXchange delivers to our users the information they require in the most easily accessible way, and that our advertisers get the best return on their investment with us. We want to stay the go-to site for the industry.  If you have any ideas on how we can improve our service to you then please let me know.
