So let’s look first at newspaper websites on smartphones.
Number of visitors is steady throughout the day – apart from a few hours in the middle of the night. I imagine though that might have been different on Sunday night with the number of people tweeting pictures of the lunar eclipse at 3am!
The number of visits builds steadily as people wake up and get going on their day, dropping down a little during working hours, and rising again steadily during the evening. They don’t appear to be taking Arianna Huffington’s advice to switch off digital devices an hour before bedtime 
Duration follows a similar pattern though there are a few differences.

22. Digital newsbrands command high attention
10 seconds on average
Attention and engagement is vital in today’s multi-media environment. The interaction time with digital newsbrand ads – as measured by MOAT analytics in was an impressive 10 seconds. This obviously varied by campaign – ads which specifically encouraged deeper engagement witnessed interaction times of up to 16 seconds.
Interaction time = Average length of time the user interacted with the ad when they entered the frame of the ad for at least 0.5 secs

Brand context effect
The more engaged the reader the stronger the effect
Newsbrand readers have very high levels of emotional engagement with their chosen newsbrand and attention levels are high – and that relationship is constantly being reinforced due to the frequency of reading. In the attention deficit age, could we measure the impact of highly focussed attention?
There are high levels of trust in the newsbrand they favour. The context in which the ads are seen is one that readers personally identify with, and that makes them feel part of a like-minded community – they see themselves as Mirror readers, or Guardian readers or Telegraph readers, for example.
Readers seem very aware that placement of ads in newsbrands imbues those ads with certain values.
