Vertical Insights

Icon

Understanding authoritative data sources in any vertical is essential to producing newsworthy content. Our team's experience with the Census Bureau's American Housing Survey is one example of how we leverage industry datasets to create newsworthy content for our clients.

Icon

Instead of limiting ourselves to real estate topics, we produced content across a broad subset of verticals to expand our campaigns reach, including lifestyle, health, cooking, and others. Through this, we were able to tap into hundreds of publishers and their audiences, ranging from Better Homes and Garden and Food Network, to USA Today and Vice, to more on-brand publishers like Realtor.com and Apartment Therapy.

Icon

Porch had a plethora of internal data and was eager to put it to good use in our content production, resulting in the campaign, Cost of Home Maintenance, which used their internal data to build a composite of expectations in the home improvement space, a big, on-brand win.

Porch is an ideal client in the sense that they’ve allowed our team to explore both tangential concepts along with content that is more on brand. It’s the perfect mix that will deliver the traffic and links they’re looking for while also presenting opportunities for more high-profile traditional PR mentions.

Porch is my dream client. From day one, they completely bought into Fractl's process. We knew sticking to home construction content was going to be a challenge, so they let us experiment in so many other areas related to the home. They let us show them why tangential content worked, and it paid off. It seems simple, but when you have someone value your expertise, it shows in the work.

I had multiple writers from high-authority publications request Fractl future studies based on Porch campaigns, and many asked to be put on our Porch pitch list specifically. I even had a writer from Homes.com request to conduct an interview with our client, and they went on to publish an article about Porch and their services!
