Condé Nast Entertainment Renews 30% of Its Web Slate

Last year, CNE launched seven digital video channels, the majority of which were tied to Condé’s magazine brands. They totaled 560 million views across 70 original Web series with more than 1,000 unique episodes in 2013.

Metrics was part of what went into the renewal decisions, but audience opinion carried greater weight. The shows selected all had high rates of participation.

"Add all those things together, and you come up with 21 magical titles that are going back into production right now," Michael Klein, evp of programming and content strategy for CNE, told Adweek.
