3. Structure of the website • The materials published on the website are mostly reviews, comparative tests and testing techniques. For convenience, all the materials are partitioned into rubrics. The rubric names match the main computer components. The rubrics are laid out in a fixed order, with the convenient navigation taking the user instantly to a review of interest from both the title page and any other or leading to a needed section through tabs. The structure of the website is continuously progressing: as a new technology comes up, there appears the respective section giving the coverage. Quite recently, two more rubrics have been added, and now they take their fixed place on the pages. • Unlike the printed edition, an Internet project offers the advantage of instant response to events going on the market and speed of making the readership aware of the latest news. The news reel of the website is made up of two sections: Hardware and Software which give the user the most fresh information on novelties of hardware, software and games. • New section Market.3dnews.ru collects price-lists of on-line stores. • The daily news mailing is based on the materials of the newsreel.

4. Cooperation with Social Networks • Since the beginning of Autumn 2010, we have implemented a number of functions provided by the social networks. Currently we keep up tight interaction with the most popular in Russia social services: VK.com, Facebook and Twitter microblogs. Through this our readers are now able to comment, rate and share with their friends anyof our publications they have found interesting. • Apart from this, we also initiated the syndication of our publications within the mentioned social networks. However, unlike most publishers do, we post out only the top popular content which allows our readers to read our most popular publications just within their social preferred feeds. • Taken one with another, all this has resulted in the stable growth and engagement of site audience from the social services, as well as the sufficient growth of our target audience. • Also, due to the implementation of the social marketing methodology, our advertising resources have developed as well, giving us and our advertisers an opportunity to use all the benefits of promotion methods provided by the social networks. www.3dnews.ru 2011
