These aren’t service lines sold à la carte. They’re the nine disciplines a modern enterprise news site requires in steady-state operation. DDS runs them together — under one relationship, accountable to one set of business outcomes.
Enterprise platform migrations onto modern WordPress estates and headless architectures. SEO continuity, archive integrity, custom theme and component engineering, multi-site coordination, and the long-tail integration work that an editorial product depends on.
Self-managed ad-server stacks with header-bidding integration. Clean ad-unit taxonomies, key-value strategies that advertisers can actually target, and owned infrastructure that replaces third-party content-marketplace and email lock-ins.
End-to-end OTT delivery: native applications across connected TV and mobile, monetized video pipelines, and a web video product that sits inside the editorial site rather than behind a third-party widget.
GDPR and US state-law remediation across multi-property portfolios. Consent-management platform configuration, ad-script gating, Consent Mode v2 implementation, and the kind of audit work that brings an existing implementation up to a defensible standard.
Subscriber-platform evaluation, migration, and day-two operations. Authentication, entitlement, and identity continuity preserved across platform changes — including the non-Stripe subscriber populations that migration projects routinely overlook.
Newsroom dashboards built on modern data infrastructure — content performance, subscription funnels, ad yield — delivered as a live tool editors can actually open, not a monthly PDF that gets archived unread.
Owned newsletter delivery stacks, sender-reputation management, deliverability discipline, and direct-response monetization that does not depend on third-party identity replacements.
News and content schema, structured-data validation, Google News programs, paywall-compatible schema, and the index-cleanup work that follows any platform migration — from Search Console diagnosis to production fix.
The unglamorous work of keeping a modern publisher online: releases, incident response, vendor management, editorial onboarding, and the weekly scorecard that leadership actually reads.
A short, written technical audit of the full stack — platform, ad ops, streaming, consent, subscriber, analytics — delivered to leadership inside four weeks. Independent of any commitment to follow-on work.
A defined rebuild or migration with a written scope, milestones, and a delivery date. Platform lift, ad-stack rebuild, compliance remediation, streaming launch — anything inside the nine disciplines.
An ongoing relationship in which DDS owns the day-two work. Releases, incidents, vendor coordination, editorial onboarding, scorecard reporting. Annual contract, monthly retainer.
