However, according to industry observers, it never quite found its niche in a market segment that included more established Meredith titles like American Baby, Parents, and Family Circle.[2] In its later years it struggled, as its circulation dropped by roughly a quarter from a high of a million readers in 2005[2], when Meredith bought the women's maazines, including Child, previously published by Gruner + Jahr. Ad pages fell at a rate higher than the industry average in early 2006, and Meredith responded by reducing the magazine's advertising rate base and its newsstand presence.[1] Market segmentation is the process in marketing of dividing a market into distinct subsets (segments) that behave in the same way or have similar needs. ...

The only growth the magazine experienced was in visits to its website, so Meredith decided in 2007 to fold the print version and focus on child.com as a portal to its other magazines.[2] A website (or Web site) is a collection of web pages, images, videos and other digital assets and hosted on a particular domain or subdomain on the World Wide Web. ...

Although Meredith did not comment on its reasons for ending publication, industry analysts cited the tendency of parents, particularly mothers, to prefer to seek parenting advice online and instead embrace newer magazines such as Condé Nast's Cookie that eschewed the traditional parenting=magazine model in favor of a more lifestyle-based approach. "At the end of the day, there's [only] so much advice you want to read," said the editor of one of the newer magazines.

The magazine had become more mainstream over the years,[1] although it continued to run fashion spreads, travel pieces on out-of-the-way, exotic vacation destinations and recipes for healthy, high-end snacks and meals until its very last issues. Contributing writers during its run included Cynthia Rowley and Penelope Leach.[3] It has been suggested that this article or section be merged with Photographer. ...
