2012 Companies Honored and Rankings Announced
(firmenpresse) - SEATTLE, WA -- (Marketwire) -- 10/17/12 -- Puget Sound Business Journal recently announced that ranked number 23 on the 100 Fastest-Growing Private Companies list at an awards event at the Meydenbauer Center. The event, which drew nearly 500 people, announced and honored all 100 companies on the list and revealed each company's ranking. The 100 Fastest-Growing Private Companies are listed, with select companies profiled, in a special publication of the Business Journal on Oct. 12.
The Fastest-Growing Private Companies program was launched 17 years ago by the Puget Sound Business Journal to identify and recognize companies speeding to the top of their industries. To be eligible, companies must be privately held and headquartered in Washington, have at least $500,000 in net revenue in 2009, show an overall growth from 2009 to 2011 calendar years, and agree to submit their net operating revenues with Puget Sound Business Journal.
"The companies that make this list are, by definition, among the most dynamic in our region," said Business Journal Publisher Gordon Prouty. "Especially this year, making membership on this elite list is all the more impressive, and these companies are showing all of us what qualities it takes to grow in challenging times."

After raising $19.1 million in funding, SEOmoz has also been on an acquiring spree, adding Followerwonk, a Twitter analytics company, to its software expertise.
"To be acknowledged on this year's PSBJ 100 Fastest-Growing Private Companies list is a great feat for the company," said SEOmoz co-founder and CEO Rand Fishkin. "I took a risk in 2004 by putting everything I had into Moz and to see how far it has grown, with an amazing group of people on my team, proves the risk was worth taking."
