Memoriams.com also has consistently proven its ability to generate newspaper revenue increases averaging 30% in this critical audience category.
The Dallas Morning News implementation of Memoriams.com will include a direct integration with Legacy.com for display of obituaries on the newspaper website. “Obituaries is one of our most important categories and one of the most read sections of our paper," said
The Dallas Morning News’ General Manager for Classifieds, Michael Mayer. “We are pleased to be able to offer our funeral homes an improved way to submit their obituary notices, and we look forward to the potential business Memoriams.com will generate from out-of-market funeral homes.”
“We’ve been proud to count
The Dallas Morning News as a long-time partner,” said Michael Heene, CEO of Adpay. “Having a newspaper of their stature join our Memoriams.com network is validation that we are on the right path.
