DesignHammer Makes the List of Top Internet Marketing and Design Firms in the Triangle

June 28, 2002

This week, The Business Journal featured its annual list of the top twenty-five Internet Marketing and Design Firms in the Triangle. Among the easily recognized names such as Blast Internet Services (the merger of EMJI and Blast, ranked #1), webslingerZ Inc. (#5) and hesketh.com (#6), DesignHammer Media Group, LLC breaks the top twenty at #16 in its first appearance.

“We are very proud to be included with such well-established companies,” said David Minton, DesignHammer’s Managing Partner. “The Dot Com bust and the downturn in the economy have hit our industry pretty hard. A number of the familiar names have either downsized or closed their doors, creating opportunities for companies such as DesignHammer”.

Founded in January of 2001, DesignHammer is a relative newcomer compared with the other companies listed, who have a mean founding date of 1995. “With only three companies founded within the last two years on the list, I feel we have joined the ranks of the established pretty quickly,” added Minton.

Companies were ranked by Triangle employees dedicated to Internet marketing and design. Each week, The Business Journal publishes a Special Report focusing on a particular industry or region.

The Business Journal claims a weekly readership of more than 40,000, including top management and decision makers. The offices of The Business Journal are in Raleigh, NC.

The Business Journal is owned by American City Business Journals Inc., the nation’s largest publisher of metropolitan business newspapers, serving 41 of the country’s most vibrant markets, with a claimed combined readership of approximately 3.2 million.
