Google is gearing up to launch its new paywall called Google News Showcase and that means it would be allowed to feature stories that are chosen by some partner publications. Most of these would be related to the local or regional area, the company mentioned.
The thought of new paywalls arising and surrounding the firm’s news posts means some would-be attaining a figure that was a little less than when the company puts out its Showcase, with expected dates to be somewhere during the summer time.
We first heard discussions surrounding this arise during the summer of 2020 and then a launch arose during the month of October in nations like Brazil and even Germany.
Such a program really does turn the entire economics for Google News in an upside-down direction. So that means instead of Google putting out headlines linked to news and allowing respective news agencies to generate revenue through such content, Showcase will force Google to pay for news sites directly so it can be featured…
