Ownership Īs of September 2020, Youm7 was owned by Egyptian Media Group, which was owned by United Media Services Group, which was itself owned by one of the Egyptian intelligence agencies ( Mukhabarat, military intelligence, National Security Agency). Youm7 was named by Industry Arabic as the second most influential Arabic paper in 2020.

In 2014 the paper launched a new website, Photo7, which is a portal for pictures in Egypt and the Arab world. In 2012, the paper's online version was the sixth most-visited website in Egypt based on the Alexa data. Editor Khaled Salah said shortly after the paper's expansion to daily publication that Youm7 'supports the popular need for a civil state and will strive to present facts to readers without political bias and with credible representation of diverse views.' Īccording to internet information service Alexa Internet, 59% of visitors to Youm7's website come from Egypt, and compared to internet users overall they are disproportionately higher-income college graduates and women browsing from home. Youm7 was first published as a weekly paper in October 2008 and has been published daily since.
