Updated daily and with a truly international reach, Fast-and-Wide will take your press and marketing properly into the future of digital publishing.
Fast-and-Wide’s 24/7 following is well served by aggressive use of online media (including embedded audio and video) and interlinked content. This is supported by the use of a range of social media from Twitter and Delicious to Facebook and LinkedIn.
The site currently attracts traffic from more than 165 countries worldwide, including North and South America, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, Asia and Australia/NZ.
· Alongside the regular banners that appear on every page of the Gear (equipment news) Section and Events listing, Fast-and-Wide carries an exclusive home page banner.
· There is also a Video Showcase on the home page that carries sponsored video, and has so far been used for equipment promotion, instructional and artist endorsement videos.
· Larger banners are accommodated in key sections of the site including the blog, features and white paper sections. ‘Oversized’ banners in the Gear Section can be used to carry larger or portrait advertisements, and are available by request.
· Sitting alongside the Fast Moves appointments news section of the website, the Fast Work section provides a shop window for recruitment, supported by social media including LinkedIn.
· In addition to the main website, Fast-and-Wide publishes a fortnightly ‘opt-in’ newsletter that is open to sponsorship. This delivers selected posts from the website and can also be used to carry sponsored content.

Behind Fast-and-Wide.com
Fast-and-Wide is the work of long-time professional audio journalist and photographer, Tim Goodyer.
Before setting up Fast-and-Wide.com in 2010, I was Editorial Director and co-founder of Blank Canvas, the publishing house behind Pro Audio Asia and Pro Audio Middle East magazines. The company was established in 2002 with Pro Audio Asia (English language), followed by a translation into Simplified Chinese and the launch of Pro Audio Middle East in 2004, and subsequently Worship Audio Asia (now Worship AVL Asia).
Previously, I was the longest serving editor of technical professional audio magazine Studio Sound. Established as The Tape Recorder in 1959 and widely regarded as an international pro audio industry reference, Studio Sound carried influential equipment reviews and authoritative technical features written by the industry's leading commentators. On my watch it broke the story of ‘Free as a Bird’, the rediscovered Beatles song that was released after the death of John Lennon.
My publishing career began in 1985 with Music Technology (formerly Electronics & Music Maker), a UK-based hi-tech musicians' magazine riding the eighties synth boom, and exploring electronic music of all flavours, from musique concrète to dance – leading and learning with the help of equipment reviews and artist interviews. Although no longer published, MT's content serves as reference material on the music and technology of the eighties and early nineties.
I have also contributed to a number of books including Philip Newell’s Recording Studio Design, and had features and photographs published in European, US and Asian magazines covering music and technology. I have worked with UK record labels on biographies and other projects, and am a current Wikipedia contributor.
Fast-and-Wide is based in Brighton, England – where you will find the highest density of journalists and web developers in the UK. You are in good hands.
