Digital Sports Group have completed the acquisition of Footymad.net the largest independent online network for football fans in the UK, expanding their growing portfolio of sports domains to over 200.
Footymad.net attracts in excess of six million unique users per month, producing 60 million page impressions, and was targeted by DSG as the perfect foil for their group of 47 sports domains, which include football.co.uk, golf.co.uk and tennis.co.uk.
"The Footymad network is a genuine online success story built on the passion of football fans and we are excited by this opportunity" said DSG Sports Editor Will Tidey.
The 158 club sites are maintained on a day-to-day basis by supporters and independent organisations who love their teams. The result is a vibrant hub of news, views and debate and we think they'll prove the perfect fit with our independent titles at DSG
DSG was launched on November 1st 2009 and is a privately owned business. DSG's football.co.uk already reaches over 1.2m uniques users per month.
