Static Media Enhances Portfolio with Key Acquisitions in Home, Pet Care, and Science

INDIANAPOLIS, Oct. 3, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Static Media is thrilled to announce the acquisition of multiple premier sites from Leaf Group Ltd. The acquired sites— Hunker.com, Cuteness.com, Sciencing.com, and GardenGuides.com—will now join Static Media’s robust portfolio, which includes TastingTable.com, HouseDigest.com, SlashGear.com, and TheList.com, reaching a combined 73 million unique users per month.

Static Media acquired the sites from Leaf Group, which specializes in health, wellness, and travel. This strategic move will broaden Static Media’s reach into new verticals and strengthen its presence in the home, lifestyle, and DIY space.

The acquisitions align with Static Media’s strategic goal to strengthen its footprint in the home and DIY vertical while venturing into new areas like pets and science. By integrating Hunker.com and GardenGuides.com, Static Media will complement its existing property, HouseDigest.com, solidifying its authority and expanding its audience in the home and garden space.

“Our goal with this acquisition is to drive growth by revitalizing these platforms with fresh, engaging content, including expert advice, practical tips, and compelling stories across home decor, pet care, and science education,” said Reggie Renner, CEO and co-founder of Static Media. “We intend to attract new readers while retaining the existing loyal following.
