A low introductory subscription price:
The NHPoliticalReport.com introductory rate is $399 a year. Compared to some states this is a bargain. To be sustainable, some basic local sites that simply aggregate news and do not provide original reporting charge around $200 a year. Some heavily-staffed news sites charge into the thousands of dollars, such as State House News in Massachusetts. Some pay hundreds of dollars a year for local newspaper subscriptions and end up with a fraction of political content that can be found here.
The details:
Technology bars two people from using the same account at the same time. If your organization requires more than one user please use the contact form to negotiate a group rate. Accounts from the previous site will not work. There will be some free content in addition to headlines and “must read” news links.
