Reader Profiles: “We bring our readers closest to their idols, because we’re the magazine that knows celebs the best. Every issue is packed with exclusive interviews and photos, as well as brilliant star advice and affordable fashion and beauty. We’re the friend our readers can rely on to give them confidence, make them laugh, and share all the juiciest gossip. And that’s why BBC Top Of The Pops Magazine is the UK’s biggest-selling teen title.” Peter Hart, Editor - BBC Top Of The Pops Magazine This reader profile is a quote from an editor of the magazine. The quote creates a sense of involvement of the magazine to the readers because it says that the readers can ‘rely’ on the magazine. It is made clear that a teen target audience is attracted because of the elements included that young girls would be interested in, for example, exclusive interviews, photos, fashion and beauty. They also target a range of people because the content includes ‘affordable fashion’ which broadens the target audience.

Reader Profiles: This reader profile is different because it is shown through images and bright colours. Readers will be able to locate the magazine quicker through this because the visual aspects will grab attention. The range of readers is also be more spread because of the different images presented on the reader profile. Stereotypical male target audience is aimed through the items on the reader profile which come across as powerful and perhaps dominating.
