GPFans content surfacing

It has been an effective, straightforward way to ensure our content appears in the best possible format on Apple News.

PROS

We were able to get our flagship F1 brand, GPFans, in front of Apple News' huge audience and regularly collect views and revenue from that source.

CONS

It has been difficult to follow this up and get further brands onto the platform.

Apple News

Frictionless, quick, easy, elegant.

PROS

We are a small online newsroom and needed a simple way to get our work onto the proprietary platform at Apple News. We did not have the human resources to pull this off, but FlatPlan made it effortless.

CONS

Everything was as expected and we have no complaints.
