Description

Established in the year 2000, Afrik.com has grown to become a reference in afro-centric news items online as well as one of Google's well referenced pages. The website is the proud host of over a million visits per month.
About 1 million readers translates to over 5 million ads viewed each month by virtue of our satellite sites, which deal with cultural, beauty, travel, and economic issues among others. Popular among our readers is our newsletter, which is blasted off to thousands of registered visitors on weekly basis.

There is a clear exponential growth in our audience base!



Fundamentals

Independence

 Faced with an African Media that is marked by a stifling dependence on state sponsored information and public subsidies, Afrik.com denotes itself as one of the most independent international media, under a strict observation and support from some of the most renowned media personalities involved in the development of quality communication in Africa.

 Afrik.com's investors, partners and supporters include: Nagui, Mireille Dumas, Michel Field, Jean-Luc Delarue, Pierre Belanger, Pascal Jos&egarve;phe, Christian Gérin, Christophe Schmidt, Olivier Zegna Rata, Antoine Ganne, The Marguerite Foundation and Alexandre Varenne. Mr. Hervé Bourges, one of the most revered media personalities in France, has also been one of the backbones of Afrik.com from the onset.

An African perspective

Open your eyes. The African continent has long been shunned by the internatio
