Our Story

We are an independent, family-run media company, and the idea behind us has never really changed: answer everyday questions clearly and honestly, from people who have actually done the thing. Readers arrive with a question and not much patience. They want a straight answer, not a wall of filler wrapped around an ad, and closing that gap is the whole reason our sites exist.

We put our name on every one of them. Real questions deserve real answers, and behind each site is a real company willing to stand behind the work.

It started with one person and a simple idea

The company began with Anne Moss, who has spent more than two decades building and running informational websites. Long before “content” was an industry, she was working out what people actually want when they type a question into a search box: a clear, honest answer from someone who has done the thing, not a page padded out to rank. She built her first sites on that idea, and she built the company on it too.

Anne runs Moss Digital Publishing with her husband and co-founder, Zack Moss. Over the years, the two grew a handful of early sites into a portfolio that now spans home and garden, travel, automotive, food, style, pets, crafts, fitness, and personal finance. Anne still leads several of the titles herself, including Trip Memos and Home Decor Bliss.

Real people stand behind every site

What keeps a network this size honest is the people who run it. Chief Brand Officer Jeannette Freed, a research scientist by training with degrees from Canisius College and the Medical University of South Carolina, sets the editorial standard every site is held to. Content specialist Nymfa Aranas, with the company since 2021, leads the day-to-day on two of the busiest titles, GardenTabs and Kitchen Seer.

Where a subject calls for genuine expertise, we bring in specialists and draw on their expertise: automotive expert Eran El Hashahar, a Certified Automotive Fleet Manager with more than 25 years in the industry, on VEHQ; executive chef Sigy Rafalovitz on Kitchen Seer. On GardenTabs, our coverage builds on the foundation laid by founding garden expert Steve Snedeker, a veteran landscaper with decades of hands-on experience.

The standard has not changed

The internet looks nothing like it did when Anne started, but the standard has held: answer the reader’s question first, test what can be tested, cite real sources, disclose how we make money, and fix what we get wrong. We hold every site in the network to it, and we explain exactly how on our editorial philosophy page.

Still a family business

Today Moss Digital Publishing LLC is still a small, family-led team that cares more about being genuinely useful than about being everywhere. After more than two decades, that is still the whole point. You can browse all of our titles on the our sites page, or reach us anytime at [email protected].
