Softfootball marks its first year with impressive growth, global reach, and millions of views, while setting sights on video content and expanded coverage in the evolving football media space.

One year after its launch on October 7, 2024, Softfootball is celebrating a major milestone, highlighting its steady rise in the global football media landscape and its growing connection with fans worldwide.

Over the past 12 months, the platform has evolved from a small startup into a fast-growing digital publication, consistently delivering news, reports, and opinion pieces to an expanding international audience.

A major force behind this growth has been its strong digital distribution network. By utilizing platforms such as Opera News and Ground News, it has surpassed 1.3 million page views within its first year, significantly enhancing global visibility.

Social media has also played a key role in its expansion. The brand recorded over 19 million views on Facebook, building a community of more than 56,000 followers. Instagram added nearly 200,000 views and over 10,000 followers, while X generated more than 780,000 impressions. LinkedIn continues to support its growing professional presence.

Behind the scenes, an editorial team of over 10 journalists drives daily output, covering matches, breaking news, and in-depth football features. This commitment to quality is reflected in a 3.7+ rating on Autopilot, indicating strong audience trust and positive reception.

Looking ahead, Softfootball is preparing to introduce video content, including highlights, tactical breakdowns, and fan-focused features. Plans are also in place to recruit journalists worldwide to ensure continuous, around-the-clock coverage.

As it enters its second year, the company remains focused on delivering reliable, engaging, and insightful football content while strengthening its presence in the international sports media industry.
