GRV Media is pleased to announce that 11 of its websites hit all-time monthly highs in January. 67 Hail Hail, Everton News, Geordie Boot Boys, Leicester City News, Molineux News, NBA Analysis, Sunderland News, The Golfing Gazette, The Tennis Gazette, The Wrexham Insider and Vamo Futebol all scaled new peaks.
Dan Coombs, GRV’s Global Head of Sports Content, said: ‘Our own websites put in very strong performances last month. It’s great to see that all our hard work has really started to pay off’.
Ed Watkinson, Head of SEO & Digital Growth, said: ‘SEO has played a massive part in our recent successes. Our SEO team of 20 – growing to 30 by year end – is placed at the centre of our business, with members of the team running several of our websites. It’s great to be part of a real success story’.
John Verrall, GRV’s Deputy Global Head of Content, said, ‘There were a number of great successes last month, but I would like to single out the performance of our golf and tennis websites. These sites were established less than 12 months ago, but saw 5.5m unique users consume over 14m page views in January’.
Graham Morris, GRV Media’s CEO, said: ‘We also continue to work hard with clients who use our adtech unit to monetize their websites. Revenue rose 71.8% last month compared to January 2024. The provision of our added-value tech and SEO services has also played a major part in this substantial increase in client revenue’.
GRV’s Executive Chairman, Vic Daniels, said: ‘Revenue for our own websites increased 167.1% in January, compared to January 2024. Company profit before tax came in six times higher. We have had a very strong start to the year, and are well placed to hit our challenging business objectives, which include hiring an additional 100 people and increasing quality page views to 2,000,000,000 in 2025′.
