New graphic layout

With an even richer picture content, including the launch of a News Gallery, PremiumBeautyNews.com’s new graphic layout, which was launched at the end of January, has fully met our expectations. A new version for which great attention was also paid to preserve the readability and easiness of navigation, while preparing for the smooth introduction of new services.

The response from readers was very positive with an immediate increase in our readership, which has stabilized at +20% after three months.
