I went into WHSmith to look at some of the magazines. From looking at these magazines, I can see that they are placed in such a way, that the top left corner of the magazine will always be visible. I believe this is because almost every magazine has their masthead start on the top left corner of the magazine, therefore as long as that part of the magazine is visible, customers will instantly know what it is. Furthermore, I realised that the magazines are split into their respective categories, some magazines are popular enough to have their own section of magazines.
Furthermore, I realised that the magazines that are placed at the back are boosted high enough to see the cover star. I believe this is because customers find the cover star and masthead the most important part of a front cover, therefore WHSmith places these magazines in such a way that both of these things are seen as much as possible.
