Hulu News For Digital Marketers

Hulu, an up-and-coming streaming service, entered the competitive streaming marketplace in 2008. The service, majority owned by The Walt Disney Company, initially only offered access to network shows subscribers may have missed. The introduction of original programming like The Handmaid’s Tale in 2017, helped earn recognition for the service as a viable and inventive streaming option comparable to Netflix and Amazon. Hulu offers ad and ad-free tiered subscription options and reached 25 million subscribers in 2018.
