Textbroker Our Mission
Offer the best content possible
to everyone everywhere
for every situation
From a simple idea to the world’s leading content marketplace
Textbroker’s goal is to meet an increasing demand for unique, tailored content. As an SEO provider, Textbroker founder Jan Becker-Fochler experienced first-hand the increasing value of unique content to his clients. The reason for this was simple: unique content means better ranking in search engines, more traffic and more revenue. In 2005, the increasing importance of unique content gave Becker-Fochler an idea. He commissioned the development of a preliminary version of the Textbroker platform as a vehicle for his idea of searching for authors, motivating them to write, rating the quality of their writing and compensating them for their efforts.
Within a short period of time, thousands of authors eager to try their hand at earning money as writers had signed up. 2007 saw the launch of the Internet’s first content marketplace. Textbroker’s marketplace. Be it a product description, blog post, or technical article, today there are thousands of authors writing and delivering professional-quality SEO and editorial content to clients all over the world.
More success with first-class content
To ensure that clients are always able to find the right author for their project, Textbroker employs a team of experienced editors to rate all submitted content. The team then organizes the authors into different quality levels according to the individual’s writing ability. This ensures that clients always have access to quality-checked content.
The need for customized content has continued to rise all over the world, and as a result, the Textbroker platform has also grown rapidly. In 2008 Textbroker expanded into the USA and opened a branch office in Las Vegas.
Internationally thousands of authors and clients forming one great team
In 2010 Textbroker gained View Point Capital Partners as investors and, in doing so, laid the groundwork for worldwide growth.
Today, Textbroker offers its clients unique content in a number of languages, with every text written by a native-speaking author. Clients can choose to have their content in German, English (US & UK), French, Spanish, Italian, Dutch, Polish, Portuguese (BR & PT), Finnish, Danish, Swedish, Norwegian, Russian and many more. The over 100 employees of the world’s leading online platform for unique content work together daily on the optimization and further development of our services.
Since its founding, Textbroker has grown into an all-round partner for professional content marketing. The Mainzer company, with subsidiaries in Las Vegas and Kiev, offers over 80,000 customers content written by native speakers in 36 languages, translations in all languages and various service options around content creation. Tens of thousands of authors, editors and other content service providers process more than 100,000 orders per month via Textbroker and work tirelessly to achieve the company’s goal: Offer the best content possible to everyone everywhere for every situation.
Poised for continued growth
The need for customized content continues to rise all over the world, and as a result, the Textbroker platform has grown rapidly. Textbroker was named to the Inc. 5000 in 2013, ranking among the top 100 fastest-growing private advertising and marketing companies.
In 2010, ViewPoint Capital Partners became the first outside investors in Textbroker, providing growth capital for expansion. That same year, Phillip Thune, experienced Internet and media executive, joined the company and later served as CEO. In November 2014, CFO El-Hadi Zahri took over the role of Managing Director from Becker-Fochler, who since then has once again focused on product management. In 2021, David Yeargin, an experienced business leader specializing in growing new business, took over the role of Chief Executive Officer. Zahri, Becker-Fochler and Yeargin are today jointly setting the course for Textbroker’s future.
