What OffshoreWIND.biz does

OffshoreWIND.biz is a specialized B2B online news portal and advertising platform serving the global offshore wind industry. Founded in 2012 and operated by Netherlands-based Navingo BV (part of the Navingo media group alongside DredgingToday.com, NavalToday.com, NavingoCareer.com, and Offshore-Energy.biz), the platform publishes daily news across five core topic verticals: Fixed-Bottom Wind, Floating Wind, Supply Chain, Power-to-X, and Grid Connection, with subcategories covering project updates, technology, planning and permitting, vessels, ports, manufacturing, cables, energy islands, and offshore platforms. The underlying technology stack is a WordPress-based CMS with topic-archived article pages, a built-in company directory, a job board, an events listing, and a daily email newsletter; the site is accessible globally without geographic restriction and covers markets across Europe, Asia Pacific, and the Americas.

The company operates as a two-sided B2B media marketplace. On the audience side, it claims 665,000+ monthly page views, 17,300+ newsletter subscribers with a 36% open rate, and 180,000+ social media followers, monetized primarily through advertising services: strategic banner placements, premium branded content articles (€1,446 per article, distributed in the newsletter and optional printed edition), and full-page company profile listings in the business directory. A second revenue line consists of job posting packages (€150 per single posting up to €1,400 for a 20-posting bundle) with optional cross-portal distribution to DredgingToday.com, Offshore-Energy.biz, and NavingoCareer.com at €125 per additional portal. Pricing for banner advertising and company profiles is not publicly disclosed and is sold via direct sales. The company also acts as a media partner for the annual Offshore Energy Exhibition & Conference (OEEC) in Amsterdam organized by parent Navingo Group.

The customer base spans offshore wind developers, contractors, turbine and foundation manufacturers, cable and vessel suppliers, recruiters, and institutional investors, primarily in Europe with growing coverage of Asia Pacific (notably South Korea) and the Americas. The go-to-market motion is sales-led, with direct outbound to advertisers seeking reach among C-level offshore-wind professionals. No external funding, acquisition, or leadership change data is disclosed; the business is privately held under Navingo BV, headquartered in Rotterdam, with a registered Baltimore presence and 11-50 employees.
