SB Nation (Sports Blog Nation)[2] is a sports network owned and operated by Vox Media with more than 300 separate web sites maintained primarily by part-time contract writers. They put together posts, facilitate dialogue and interact with commenters. At a kickoff event in February 2009, there were about 185 blogs. ComScore, the Reston-based tracker of consumer Internet habits, tallied 5.8 million unique visitors to SB Nation Web sites during the month of November 2010. That 208 percent increase over the 1.9 million unique visitors in November 2009 makes SB Nation the fastest growing sports Web site the company tracks.[3]
As of December 2010, SB Nation has 12 million unique visitors and over 100 million page views monthly, according to Vox Media CEO Jim Bankoff. Expansion includes mobile and going global, into the "European Premier (soccer) League" [sic]. [4]
