The 9fin Website

Under the editorial oversight of Chris Haffenden, 9fin has expanded its content creation. They now place content in front of more diverse audiences. Their team of reporters allows them to maximize the value of the content. They do this by targeting both traditional and electronic media markets. 

The website itself is rather voluminous, though also well-organized and structured. The top of the website features a prominent, though not intrusive menu, listing five areas of the site. At the end of this menu is a selection explaining the many career opportunities with 9fin. The selection of reporting jobs indicates that 9fin will continue producing more content.

This content is not only for their website, but for traditional markets as well. The focus of content on different platforms should assist in marketing and sales. Together, their expansive efforts appear to offer a bright future to 9fin.
