Compared to other Prague-based English newspapers, Prognosis 1991-1995[3] and Prague Pill 2001-2003 [4] —the Prague Post was the longest running English-language newspaper in the Czech Republic.[5] Its target audience included English-speaking expatriates living in the Czech Republic or neighboring countries, Czech readers seeking news from an international perspective and tourists visiting the Czech Republic. With a print run of about 19,000 copies, The Prague Post reached approximately 40,000 readers a week with its print edition published every Wednesday.[citation needed] In 2013, The Prague Post ceased its print edition and moved to an online-only format.[1] Its website at its peak had 40,000 unique users generating 150,000 page views per month.[6]
The history of the newspaper began in Prague, two years after the Velvet Revolution, specifically in 1991.[7]
