From these results, i can see that most of the people i questioned were male, which means i will focus my attention mostly on the male audience, but still make it appealing too women. From the second graph, i can see that the most popular artist is Paramore, followed by Lost Prophets. Too appeal to my target audience, i will focus my attention of my front cover on one of these two artists, and possibly my Double Page spread aswell.
From the first graph (blue bars), i can see that people tend to buy Magazines on a monthly basis. To help the sales of my magazine, i will focus my attention on selling my magazine on a monthly basis only. From the final graph, i can see that most people are willing to pay over £3.00 for a music magazine. This can increase the profit of my magazine, as it means i can increase the price it can be sold as.
