Tindle Newspapers has created digital versions of more than 100 of its weekly newspapers as part of a drive to create revenue from online subscriptions.

The move follows the publisher running a successful three month pilot project which saw e-editions of six weekly papers, including paid-for titles South London Press and Tavistock Times, launched in July.

Brian Doel, managing director of Tindle Newspapers, told Press Gazette the success of the pilot encouraged the publisher to create e-editions for nearly half of its newspapers in September, including the majority of the publisher’s paid-for titles, and plan for digital versions of the remainder of its titles.
