Content is no longer just a commodity.
After hiring hundreds of writers, dozens of editors, and building over 100 websites, you can say we know a thing or two about creating content teams.
Our journey here started with the head cheese, Ewen Finser, who started his first content site to escape cubicle life and the dreaded office attire that accompanied that.
With a handful of writers and a list of keywords, Ewen built his content sites from the ground up and quickly learned that in order to scale, you needed to hire the right experts.
Because great SEO starts with great content. And great content starts with amazing writers.
Today, Ewen and his Venture 4th Media team along with Amy and Natalia have scaled to over 100 sites, 150+ niche expert writers, 16 editors, and an ever-expanding digital team.
We have also created thousands of best-in-class articles that continue to dominate the Google rankings and launched over 30 sites this year.
Our growth is no accident. We don’t invest in content; we invest in people.
Now, we have expanded into several investor-led portfolios including, Center Keel Media which incubates “day zero” content brands at scale in
emerging and late-stage ecommerce verticals, leveraging deep niche subject matter expertise.
This means we know a lot about getting the right writers into the right seats from the start.
Let our years of lessons, trials, tests, and recruiting get you the content team of your dreams.
we believe
Mediocre ‘generalist’ writers are a thing of the past.
Google and readers can tell the difference between an AI-created, content-as-commodity generated article vs a real-life deep passionate writer.
Brands don’t need to own the content, they need to own the writing team.
If you want to grow a content site, you need the right content team!
