Today we are going to talk about the 3 types of magazines. Let’s start with the first Type. The first Type are Paid magazines. Paid magazines are the most famous and the most widespread among the readers. Let’s first take a look at the ways, how you can pay for such a magazine. Firstly, you can buy it a store, a newspaper stand or from a paper boy with bills, coins or card.

Secondly you can subscribe to an newspaper or magazine company so you can get the newest stuff online an your device. Normally you deposit a payment method like PayPal or your credit card so they can automatically debit it the next month.

 The last payment method is the option to hand in a blog, information or pictures which the magazine brand can use. In return you gone get a subscription for a certain period or a one-time view. This means you can view the newspaper for the day you handed in your work.

The content of paid magazines can be nearly anything but the most common three are magazines about politics. These show the newest political changes or interviews from politicians. About fashion, these show the newest trends, dress tips or models advertising for a brand. Or about technology.

There are also different types how you can get these magazines. The most common one is probably to buy it at a newspaper shop in form of paper. But these days you can often see the newest newspaper on your phone, laptop or pc. Some newspaper companies also offer a short video where they talk about everything what would be in their magazine. These is very rare because most people enjoy reading and if they want to watch news their just choosing a news channel like BBC.
