Let us try to understand how the summer went by and what waits for us in the near future.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">If we look at media visits and their positions compared to one other, we will see that there have been some rearrangements in the past year. Let&#8217;s use data from\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/similarweb.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Similarweb.com<\/a>\u00a0(not ideal, but the best on the market today).<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">And so, this summer there were seven news outlets among the 50 most visited platforms from Armenia. The top five looks like this:<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-16903 size-full\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/foto_1_0.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"556\" height=\"265\" srcset=\"https:\/\/media.am\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/foto_1_0.jpg 556w, https:\/\/media.am\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/foto_1_0-300x143.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 556px) 100vw, 556px\" \/><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Fifty sites include the Lragir and Lurer.com.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.similarweb.com\/top-websites\/armenia\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">This is<\/a>\u00a0the overall picture.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">A year ago the picture was different. Again there were seven websites in the fifty. But after many years at the forefront, BlogNews is no longer on the list. Tert.am has lost quite a number of positions; A year ago it was the 22nd. The image can be seen\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.evernote.com\/shard\/s8\/sh\/dc215204-c9b2-4a73-ac28-1c51750acbcf\/288a0e158d38f3a0db94743600a8ae71\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">here<\/a>. It should be reiterated that calculations in Similarweb may contain subjective data. The same BlogNews has a much larger audience with Google Analytics.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Following the dynamics of a few years allows us to say that there may be more serious rearrangements in the media in the coming months: media financing is changing, the audience for social networks is changing, as are the interests and style of the audience.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">An observation of Armenian media YouTube channels (according to\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/socialblade.com\/youtube\/top\/country\/am\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Socialblade ratings<\/a>) shows that the\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/media.am\/en\/revolution-televised\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">sharp rise in viewership<\/a>\u00a0since the revolution has continued to be maintained.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Looking at the top ten media outlets, we can clearly see that YouTube has become a separate platform.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Here&#8217;s a look at the dynamics of some of the top rating media YouTube channels by the month:<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-16906\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/foto_2_0.jpg\"
