Demographics of a Magazine

       When trying to even create a magazine there are many different aspects that need to be considered. Like who your target audience is, the genre, design, who will be featured, how often will one be produced and how it will be produced. Demographics is statistical data relating to the population and particular groups within it. Meaning for example, age, race, gender, and ethnicity. Demographics can go hand in hand with target audience. However, your target audience and demographics can be totally different or it could actually present that your target audience is who are reading your magazine and the demographics would present that.  

Here are some examples of magazine demographics:
