That time of the year again! JournalismPakistan turns 9
JournalismPakistan.com is celebrating its 9th anniversary, marking nearly a decade of extensive media coverage. Co-founder Imran Naeem Ahmad acknowledges the loyal support from readers that has fueled its success.

ISLAMABAD – Yaay… it’s birthday time again! JournalismPakistan.com has turned 9 – and what a journey it has been.

Since that day in the fall of 2009, to this, we have covered the good, the bad, and the ugly sides of the Pakistani and international media extensively.

The website has undoubtedly come a long way.

“It means we now have more credibility, more following, and are quoted even more on social media and elsewhere,” said Editor and Publisher Imran Naeem Ahmad, who co-founded the website with journalist Stephen Manuel.

Imran thanked thousands of the website’s followers in Pakistan and abroad for their loyal following. “It is the authenticity of our content that has earned us the trust of the readers and made JournalismPakistan.com the No.1 media website in the country,” he said.

The site has seen many changes and gone through various transformations since October 24, 2009, but, it remains, in essence, a website widely loved.

Pakistan’s media is a continuing story and, therefore, so is JournalismPakistan.com. Both are two sides of the same coin. Both have made progress, and both have had to take a few steps sideways or backward in their journey forward. But it has certainly been worth it.

Imran thanked the followers of JournalismPakistan.com. “We would not have come this far without your loyal support and following. Thank you, and keep following!”

KEY POINTS:

  • JournalismPakistan.com turns 9 years old.
  • Co-founded by Imran Naeem Ahmad and Stephen Manuel.
  • Website recognized for its credible media coverage.
  • Imran thanks its loyal followers for their support.
  • Site has transformed while maintaining authenticity.
