Readership
Stable Readership Most people in Japan who read the newspaper subscribe through a daily home delivery system, which has allowed Japanese newspapers in general to have stable circulation. Although online news access over print versions of newspapers has become more globally widespread, Nikkei’s circulation is increasing and it maintains a loyal readership.
Subscription RateJapan’s efficient newspaper delivery system to homes and offices using local distributors is a
major factor behind the Nikkei’s high subscription rate.
The Only Growing Newspaper in JapanThe Nikkei’s circulation has grown over the past 15 years, despite the boom in Internet usage
over that period.

Appendix
Unique Positioning of Newspapers in JapanThe Japanese newspaper market has a number of distinguishing characteristics. Not only do newspapers in Japan boast the largest circulation in the world and offer a wealth of information, they also have clear advantages over other advertising media.
Newspapers in JapanAccording to the 2009 issue of WAN (World Press Trends), Japan had the largest total
number of newspapers issued on a daily basis. Japan also had the largest number of
newspapers per 1,000 people among the major industrialized countries. Another special
characteristic of Japan’s newspapers is the significantly high number of copies per paper, as
shown by the number of national daily newspapers with circulations in the millions on the
next page.
Morning and Afternoon EditionsUnlike national daily newspapers published in the U.S., Europe and other countries, most
Japanese dailies—like the Nikkei—have morning and afternoon editions. In today’s fast
changing world, these meet readers’ needs for the very latest news coverage.
The first printing of the Nikkei afternoon edition is delivered to securities companies
at around 12:30 p.m., with copies reaching other business sectors at 3:30–4:00 p.m. and
suburban households at around 5:00 p.m.
Advertising in NewspapersNewspaper advertising accounts for 12.4 percent of the total advertising expenditure in
Japan. This rate is the highest among print media.
The Nikkei is known as the most effective medium for disseminating corporate brand,
corporate social responsibility (CSR), and investor relations advertising, and is considered a
vital advertising medium in those categories.

Appendix
High Subscription RateJapan has a high newspaper subscription rate due to its efficient home-delivery system, with 95 percent of
papers being delivered in this way. Further contributing factors include Japan’s very high literacy rate and the
general enthusiasm for reading newspapers on a daily basis.
Reading HabitsA comparison of newspapers and magazines reveals that newspaper readers have a much higher
reading frequency, with 72 percent reading a newspaper daily on a continuing basis. This means much
greater exposure of advertising to newspaper readers.
