Blackthorn Publishing designs, builds and runs Food Journal Magazine, an independent Los Angeles food publication with its own ISSN. We rebuilt the site on Wix Studio with a full redirect structure, engineered an advanced @graph schema architecture covering the publication, every article and every venue it covers, and run the ongoing content, internal linking and press strategy. The result is a small independent outlet competing for visibility against national media, and winning citations in AI-powered search answers across hundreds of queries.
