History and profile
Launched in 1998,[3] the first issue of the magazine hit stands in January 1999. It was started by Bauer Publishing, the United States division of the German firm Bauer Verlagsgruppe. The contents of these magazines include features like teen gossip, quizzes, fashion, posters, and information on celebrities that pertain to the readers. The name of the publication is a sound-alike abbreviation of its tagline "Just For Teens".
The headquarters of J-14 is in Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey.[4]
In April 2015, the Spanish language online edition the magazine was launched.[5]
American Media, Inc. acquired Bauer's US children's magazines in 2018.[6]
Circulation
An annual survey in 2007 by Experian Simmons Research of Fort Lauderdale, Florida, found that J-14 tied the former Nickelodeon Magazine among American girls 8–14 for familiarity, with nearly one in three girls in that age group surveyed saying they had read or looked at the magazine. Circulation was 217,183 copies in 2006.[7]
