About

Established in 1997, UrbanMecca.com (Formally known as BlackWeb.net) is a portal for African Americans focusing on news and community.  Due to its varied content, the site reaches a wide range of people looking for African American content…across age, income, and gender all around the world.

Inspired by the achievements of what Johnson Publishing did in the magazine industry in the 20th century, UrbanMecca.com holds a special distinction as a minority owned and operated company and exists in a certain class of publishers where other sites that vie for African American traffic are only ‘products’ of large ad supported publishers.
