Elleuk.com does facillitate audience and feedback interaction. One of the main ways in which they do this is through their twitter feed. The site features a twitter feed which has a live stream of tweets both from ELLE itself and it's readers. Because the stream is live anyone could write anything about ELLE and it would be featured on the site, this gives a feel of audience freedom.
Beneath all of the articles featured on the site, the readers are given the option to tweet, like on Facebook, pin to their Pinterest, google+ or email the article. However unlike it's competitors, elleuk.com does not have the option for readers to comment on articles. This gives the impression that this is more of an elite online publication that does not really allow for citizen journalism or crowdsourcing.
