INDUSTRY NEWS
elcome to the March issue of IMT. Our move to increase the volume of material being posted straight to the website has defi nitely proven popular and one week ago we had some notable increases in traffi c. For each news item posted on the website a reader has to stay on the item for a minimum of 3 minutes for us to count this as being read. Some examples include Unison-optimised tube bending exceeded 4,100 reads, Barrett Steel-change of name exceeded 6,100 reads, Protem- heavy duty beveller exceeded 3,500 reads, Miyachi – resistance welding exceeded 7,400 reads, Transfl uid-Tube forming exceeded 6,400 reads and so on, all can be seen via
www.internationalmetaltube.com Our website is there to compliment both the magazine and E-Newsletters but gives us the fl exibility to get news out internationally within minutes, this was recently highlighted by an item of news for a webinar that missed the newsletter and we posted it straight to the website that resulted in over 1,600 individuals reading the item before the deadline.
