What do we mean by ‘Search’? 🤔

Unlike a lot of agencies, where SEO and social media sit in completely separate services, we do things a little differently.

Our SEO and social teams work closely together because search is changing.

People are increasingly using social platforms as search engines in their own right, while social content can also appear in search results and be surfaced in AI Overviews and LLM-powered answers.

Google is even continuing to bring social and search closer together, with Search Console now supporting data from selected social platforms.

That’s why our teams share topics, keyword research, audience insights, content ideas and more! By working together, we can create content that’s designed to be discovered wherever your customers are searching.

We’re finalists! 🎉

We’re very excited to say that Northern Media has been shortlisted for Micro/Small Business of the Year at the Wakefield Business Awards 2026! 🏆

We always love an excuse to get dressed up and celebrate the brilliant businesses across Wakefield, so we’re already looking forward to the night.

We’re also proud to be sponsoring the Small or Medium Manufacturer of the Year award, which feels particularly special given how many fantastic manufacturing businesses we work with.

With plenty of our clients, partners and friends attending too, we’re expecting a very good night!

Why do we build bespoke websites instead of using page builders? ❓

We’re firm believers that your business isn’t a template, so why should your website be?

Page builders can be useful, but they can also come with unnecessary features, plugins and code that can affect performance and create additional security risks. 🔒

With a bespoke site, we can build around your business, your customers and what you actually need.

Our in-house designers work alongside our developers to make sure your website looks great and works brilliantly. 🙌

And once it’s live, we’ll train you and your team to use it confidently. After all, it’s your website. We believe you should know how to use it!

Friday night was all about switching off and enjoying some much-needed downtime! 🍸

After what’s been a very busy start to the year, the team headed to Fino in Wakefield for some good food and drinks.

We were far too busy chatting to take many photos, but we did manage to snap Ewan enjoying a Pink Gin Spritz. 👀

A drink we definitely didn’t have down as Ewan’s order but we're here for it! 😂

In a sea of competition, the last thing you want is to look like everyone else! 👀

When everyone has access to the same tools, prompts and trends, standing out takes more than just a vague brief and a quick AI-generated design.

It's something we're really passionate about, so we’ve put together a few slides. 👇

12 years at Northern Media and counting 🎨✨

On Saturday, Jess officially reached 12 years with Northern Media, and we couldn’t let the milestone pass without giving her the recognition she deserves!

As our Creative Lead, Jess has spent over a decade shaping the way our creative work looks, feels and functions. She combines hands-on design with project management, meaning nothing she touches is ever just nice to look at. It’s always functioning as it should too.

12 years, countless projects and still bringing the same energy, creativity and attention to detail to everything she does.

Happy work anniversary, Jess! 🫶

You may have seen that yesterday was Ant’s 13th work anniversary at Northern Media!

What you may not have seen is that he turned up to an internal meeting dressed as a baker… and yes, we were just as confused as you are. 😂

It turns out the number 13 is actually known as a baker’s dozen. Who knew?

You’ve got to love his weird and wonderful brain! Don’t ever change, Ant! 👏
