NEW YORK, December 16, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --
Beat (Music) and Feast (Food) bring Jerrick's total number of verticals to eight, only two weeks after launch of the Vocal platform.
Jerrick Media Holdings, Inc., (OTCQB: JMDA) (the "Company" or "Jerrick"), a digital media and technology company, announced today the launch of two new verticals, Beat and Feast, to be added to their proprietary platform Vocal.
Vocal is a content distribution platform and publishing hub engineered for creation and discovery spanning verticals in health, sexuality, science fiction, the workplace, pop culture, and more. Aimed at connecting thoughtful and original articles with communities passionate about these topics, Vocal leverages the power of specific and dedicated audiences with a nascent content creation engine, and effective monetization.
Beat is a website dealing with all topics relating to music, while Feast encompasses every aspect of food; both will have Jerrick's signature combination of quality articles, videos and photographs. Vocal users are now able to contribute to both of these new communities.
"We're extremely gratified to see the reaction to the launch of Vocal - the number of contributors has far exceeded our initial expectations," said Rick Schwartz, Founder of Jerrick. "As promised, we're listening to what people want to discuss and music and food were at the top of their list. Our tech enables us to scale new verticals very quickly."
Eight verticals now run on Vocal, each of which are built upon a storied history in the media landscape:
