"We've been the largest Mac network for the past 7 years," said Dave Hamilton, president and co-founder of BackBeat Media.

And our strength has been our strategy of hand selecting well-branded sites. Our newest members have been similarly selected for their strong brands in other industries outside of our core.

On the advertising side, we look for engagement. We make sure our member publishers have strong connections with their communities. The sort of connections that provide more than just the right audience

These sites also strengthen the advertiser's brand in the minds of readers. Absent that sort of connection, we don't believe we have the best fit.

BackBeat Media works with web publishers who have a strong brand or following within their respective markets. Rather than allowing any site to sign up for a broad topic channel, BackBeat Media works to to pair a strong corporate brand with a strong publisher brand. The company has always focused on finding those publishers that already carry or have potential for a strong reader engagement with both the brand of the publisher and the advertiser.

"On the advertising side, we look for engagement. We make sure our member publishers have strong connections with their communities. The sort of connections that provide more than just the right audience," said Greg Snyder, vice president and co-founder of BackBeat Media. "These sites also strengthen the advertiser's brand in the minds of readers. Absent that sort of connection, we don't believe we have the best fit."

In addition to the new sites and networks, BackBeat Media is also continuing to expand the largest Mac network in the industry with the addition of several sites, including, 9-to-5 Mac, a rapidly growing leader in breaking Mac news.
