Circulation: SA Mechanical Engineer Online
Bona fide readers: Do you want to talk to a real-live mechanical engineer who is economically active and making buying decisions every day? There is no more bona fide readership than the 5 800 members of the SA Institution of Mechanical Engineering who receive their digital newsletter SAMechEng Online each month.
Across all industries: These engineers and technicians, who have been vetted by the Institution and are paid-up members, work across an extraordinary range of industries. Where there is a machine, there is a mechanical engineer!
Buy-in: Feedback from SAIMechE shows that over half the members read the newsletter supplemented by Promech Publishing’s own distribution of 1 900 readers.
Shelf-life: The current edition of the newsletter, as well as that of the previous month, is housed on our website, giving advertisers an extra bang for their buck. Each news item is ‘filed’ on the site so readers can scroll back over years of archiving to find an article which may have caught their eye or to search for a topic of interest.
Stats
- Individual readers spend an average of 5 – 7 Minutes on perusing each newsletter. This is no quick glance but rather indicative of a deep interest in the subject matter.
- 5700 new users so far this year.
- Over 20 0000 page views since March 2024.
- As far we know, we are the only site covering mechanical engineering in southern Africa that allows for visitors to interact by leaving comments. Some examples:
Robert says (on article – Knife Gate Valves): “Thanks for sharing this information! The integration of knife gate valves with the Internet of Things (IoT) will revolutionize the way industries manage fluid control systems
Amina says (on article – The Reason Behind GirlCAD): “I wasn’t aware that there wasn’t EGD in girls’ schools until you wrote this article. I took EGD in my public government school Bonela Secondary in Durban back in 2008-2010. I guess I was privileged because it was a mixed-gender school that had girls and boys so I am certainly lucky. Thank you for all that you do to take our females out of the obstacle zone!! So happy about this.”
