The Magazine came to life in the early 1700s during the outbreak of the World War. In those times, it is used as a support for politics, government, criticism and information that claims to be affirmed or contradicted either through the dissemination of research or study results. After gaining freedom, several companies came up with the idea of starting a magazine publishing business that would evolve into different walks of life. People began to buy these magazines with the aim of keeping up with their environment and expanding their knowledge. That was successful.
Today Magazine is probably the number one source of information available to everyone. His readers range from children to students and executives. Actually, there are two types of magazines. One of them is the consumer magazines that are widely available in the country. The other is the business magazine that can be used by subscription. Both magazines usually come in a weekly, monthly, or quarterly release with up-to-date content.
