Target Audience

The target audience for a my music magazine would be around the age of 16-19 both female and male, predominantly females. I decided this because my previous research shows that females tend to read music magazines a lot more that males and it would make my magazine more successful, because the best selling magazines are mostly read by them. Also, from my visit to WHSmith - music magazines where placed around men's magazines such as - men's health and games, which suggests that music magazines are common for males to read aswell. Considering my magazine being based on pop and soft rock, the major ethnicity reading this magazine would be white and following Christianity but not necessary religious. The social class for this magazine would be working class as most teenagers do not have a job and are in full time education, and this allows them gain quick knowledge about various topics which are also easy to understand. The target audience, teenagers, would most likely be interested in the pictures of pop stars rather than serious commentary content. They would also buy other media products such as CDs, music DVDs, rock magazines. They would be interested in mainstream artists such as Katy Perry, Lilly Alen, Lady Gaga, Justin Timberlake, Justin Beiber, Chipmunk, Dizzie Rascal, Pink, Taylor Swift, Green Day, Maroon 5,
