Defence IQ reaches 60,000 members

July 27, 2012 - PRLog -- Defence IQ, the online military and defence news and analysis portal, today announced it has added its 60,000th member as interest continues to grow among the defence community with unlimited access to a range of exclusive interviews, videos, articles, podcasts and whitepapers.

So far, 2012 has already been a record breaking year for Defence IQ with the addition of 10,000 new subscribers in the first half of the year alone, together with a rapidly growing global readership.  This growth has come through a series of firsts for Defence IQ; in May the portal was among the first to report on the UK’s F-35 decision and the first to interview UK Defence Minister Peter Luff on these plans. More recently, Defence IQ has launched the Defence IQ Blogging Awards, which saw nomination from over 40 defence and industry bloggers, and launched the quarterly Defence IQ Review.

Andrew Elwell, Editor, Defence IQ said: “It’s great to see a surge in members signing up to Defence IQ. I would like to thank all our members for making the portal the success it is today. So far 2012 has been a great year for the portal but there is still much more to come from Defence IQ as we continue to build our contributor base and increase our coverage of military and defence issues.”

Defence IQ’s news and analysis portal provides commentary and analysis on the industry’s top stories as well as allowing members the opportunity to get involved among the online community by building their own online profiles and offering their opinion on popular stories.
