7Hops.com Inc., doing business as Static Media,[1] is an American internet company established in 2012 based in Indianapolis. It operates ZergNet, a content recommendation business.[2][3]
ZergNet
Established around 2011,[4] ZergNet has been compared to Outbrain, Adblade, Taboola and similar companies,[5][2] and the fact that the site itself has become popular with some end users invited a comparison to BuzzFeed.[3] Zergnet aims to distinguish itself from its competitors by focusing on high quality, less spammy offerings.[2][3]
