Male Female
For this information I will be use this for things such as Content, I surveyed a range of different
people and the results show that the majority of people are males, so this will be a male biased
magazine with mainly male opinions.

With this information I will know how to talk to the readers and what type of language to use, also a
brief kind of style will be set because of the main age group set for the magazine, I also think that
this will help with what kind of celebrities to interview and what bands to look at. My magazine will
be mainly targeted at the 16-20 age group.

I will use this information by using it to decide how often to publish a magazine, I have decided after
looking at the results and looking at how many people put more than a month, I think that a yearly
magazine isn’t enough and a month has a reasonable amount of people voting for it anyway so I
have concluded to make a monthly magazine.

popular choices.

From this research I will use it to expand on where my main selling point of my magazines will be, It
will definitely be a main target of the newsagents, but as half of the amount of people that buy them
from newsagents buy them from the supermarkets, they will also be a high selling point area.

50+ 75+ 100+ Other
From the results of this information from this question I will have around about 60-65 pages
between the 50+ and 75+ option votes as these are the most popular votes. I think that also if the
magazine is a special edition it may be 100+ as also a lot of people voted 100+.

Formal Informal
With this set of results I definitely know that I will use informal language in my magazine, the main
reason for this is that it will be easier for me to write the magazine, and that at least 90% of the
people that voted chose informal.

Classic Smooth 70's or 80's Other
With this kind of results I think that 70’s/80’s music is the most popular and definitely be in the
featured content of “Outsider” Magazine.
Also I think that Smooth rock and Classic rock along with Punk should be added in the magazine,
because Smooth rock was just as popular as 70’s and 80’s

I think that these results being a very even amount of results says to me that I think that there
should be an even amount if different types if rock, a fair amount of heavy metal rock will be
featured in my magazine.
