Our Community Platform
Building Connections Between People & Their CommunitiesFor Business For Locals
We're a digital media company that advocates for communities by expanding their voice through content creation and technology.
We connect residents to local businesses through meaningful content and act as trusted resource for where to explore and what to enjoy in cities around the country.
Our platform brings together businesses and neighbors to make hometowns more engaged and activated. By building a virtual local community -- we make areas better for residents, visitors, businesses, and cities.
It started with a crab cake. When our founder, Scott Conlon found himself in Maryland struggling to find the best place to get crab cakes, he started wishing there was a source that could tell him where the locals go.
Since a platform of stories about local businesses written by local residents didn't exist -- Scott built his own. He created the first MyArea Network site, 813area.com in his home city of sunny Tampa, Florida.
He didn't stop there. Scott saw that other cities would also love a city guide like 813area.com. So he started launching platforms in other cities, and soon, there were MyArea Networks in 75 cities across the country.
Area network sites were just the beginning of the local-centric media company we would grow into. MyArea Network is now more than just a network of sites for locals to find the best things to do, see, and eat in their city.
We're a fast-growing technology company that is discovering innovative ways to use data and AI to build meaningful connections between peoples, places, and things.
We're continuing to expand our multi-channel media outlets and technology suites to build even better tools and platforms for connecting communities across the country.
