The IPSOS Company has just published its November 2017 figures in the EMMA Poll, which tracks Average Issue Readership for magazines.

Outdoor Rooms is now on 70,000, gaining 4000 readers.

Backyard, which debuted at 67,000, is now on 74,000, gaining 7000 readers.

The two publications target different markets: Outdoor Rooms is exclusively for consumers with big, upmarket, structural projects, while Backyard is geared towards the broader market of Australians doing backyard makeovers.

“We are pleased to be seeing this growth for our publications in these market niches,” said Publisher Janice Williams
