📢 Client’s opinion

“Web push notifications are an important channel for reaching our readers. Sending notifications is simple, fast, and suitable for breaking news situations, as well as promoting the most important stories of the day. Even though the ceiling is still dictated by the content being pushed and the total number of subscribers to notifications, push notifications almost instantly result in a significant uptick in clicks on pushed articles.”
