Magazines – Top Ten.

March 2, 2011 By admin

When investigating what are the top 10 magazines, we usually look to to to major consumer countries, that is The United Kingdom & The United States of America.

When viewing magazine statistics for both of these countries, it offers a fabulous insight into the minds of the citizens whom dwell within these countries. It showcases the very area’s of topics that are deemed important in some way to each individual.

The magazines statistics identified the categories by type or genre so clearly, and highlighted which magazines were the most popular, by the number of magazines bought, and in some cases given away to the general public free as part of internal advertising via various companies. Magazines that were given away free to customers within the UK ranked highly within the UK popular magazine statistics chart.

In regards to the top 10  magazines,the contrast between both countries were startling. Magazines relating to Cable & Analogue TV along with food related magazines, dominated the ratings for the Top 10 Most Popular Magazines.
Sky Magazine, Sky Sports Magazine & Sky Movies Magazine received the top 3 ranking, and has done so for the last 3 or so years. Hot on it’s heel’s however is the Tesco & Asda Magazine, with fellow supermarket food magazine, Sainsbury’s Fresh Ideas Magazine beaten into 7th place by the only non TV  or food related magazine in the top 10 popular magazine statistic chart. The National Trust Magazine comes in at number 6.
TV Choice, What’s on TV and The Radio Times complete the UK’s Top Ten most Popular magazines. Social & Fashion media magazines complete the genre of magazines consumers within the UK subscribe to in large quantities.

It would appear that the British public love nothing more than to engage in leisurely activities around watching TV or films and enjoying food whether home or ready made. It would also suggest that the British public probably prefer to entertain or be entertained at home, or in familiar surroundings with like minded individuals.

Within the USA, the magazine statistics show a completely different side to the lifestyles of the American public when the Top 10 Magazines are revealed to identify which one of them is the most popular.

AARP Magazine comes in at Number 1. This bi monthly periodical has been around for a long while, and has held this popular slot since the early 80′s. According to magazine statistic sources, it is the most popular magazine as read by Americans today. This magazine which is mainly focused on ageing issues, boasts a staggering 47 million readers!
