Business Overview

SAY Media has three business lines. Say Media operates an advertising network through VideoEgg, a publishing platform through Six Apart’s TypePad and Moveable Type, and a number of small online content providers. SAY Media’s goal is to acquire sites with active communities that have high commenting and contribution rates to build a modern media company. SAY Media adds sites to its ad and blogging platform through partnerships, investments, and acquisitions but primarily focuses on owning and controlling its own editorial properties. Consequently, SAY Media provides most of the operating capital to these sites through the ad revenue that the site generates. This strategy allows SAY Media to generate significant revenue from the sheer volume of traffic that SAY Media is able to offer advertisers and brands. Founded in 2004, SAY Media is headquartered in San Francisco, California with 9 offices around the world.
