Fashionmagazine.com and digital brand expansion
FASHION's website was first launched in the summer of 2000.[2]
In 2008, the brand made two significant efforts to expand their online presence. In March, FASHION announced a content partnership with MySpace Canada that included sharing behind-the-scenes news, videos and photo galleries.[3] In April, the magazine announced a national "Reporter Search" in an effort to find 10 new style bloggers from across Canada who could write about fashion trends in their home communities. The eventual winners of the contest were given a year-long blog on the FASHION website and were also awarded other prizes.[4]
Video was a big part of Fashionmagazine.com's online strategy and in October 2009, the site was recognized with the "Best Video" award at the first year of the Canadian Online Publishing Awards.[5] The site was a finalist for the same "Best Video" award in 2010.[6]
