About Us
Welcome to Scottsdale: Your Digital Gateway to the Desert Paradise
Scottsdale was born out of a passion for sharing the unique charm and vibrant spirit of Scottsdale, Arizona, with the world. Founded in 2017, our mission is to become the go-to digital hub for everything Scottsdale—a one-stop destination for both locals and visitors seeking an authentic experience.
Our Journey:
Over the years, we've witnessed the city's transformation from a quiet desert town into a bustling metropolis. Our founders, inspired by Scottsdale's rich history and cultural tapestry, recognized a gap in reliable online resources dedicated solely to this remarkable place. This realization sparked the creation of our news website, aiming to fill that void.
Since our launch, we've celebrated numerous milestones:
- 2018: Secured partnership with local businesses to offer exclusive digital content and promotions.
- 2019: Expanded our team to include dedicated reporters and photographers, ensuring a comprehensive coverage of Scottsdale's events and attractions.
- 2020: Achieved over 500,000 page views, solidifying our position as the premier online source for Scottsdale news and insights.
Our Purpose and Values:
Scottsdale is more than just a website; it's a commitment to preserving and sharing the essence of this remarkable city. Our core values are rooted in:
- Unbiased Reporting: We strive for fairness and objectivity, providing readers with accurate and unbiased information.
- Community Engagement: Our site is a platform where residents and visitors can connect, share stories, and contribute to the vibrant Scottsdale community.
- Reliability: Ensuring every piece of content meets the highest standards of quality and accuracy is our top priority.
Filling the Information Gap:
The internet offers a wealth of information, but when it comes to Scottsdale, there was a distinct lack of reliable, centralized resources. We aimed to create a go-to website that becomes an integral part of the city's digital landscape, offering not just news but also a deeper understanding of Scottsdale's culture, history, and hidden gems.

Scottsdale caters to a diverse range of readers, including:
- Locals who seek daily updates, event listings, and insider knowledge about their city.
