About the publication
Tampa Bay Certified
@tampabaycertified
Tampa Bay Certified covers the restaurants, retail, hospitality, and lifestyle names that locals already trust. Our editorial team produces curated features for partner brands looking to reach a city-focused audience with stories that read like editorial — not ads. Features stay live on the publication permanently. Follow @tampabaycertified for daily features.
What we do
Tampa Bay Certified runs editorial coverage built around the businesses, people, and moments locals in Tampa Bay actually care about. Every story is grounded in a real local source and every Featured Partner is hand-selected by the editorial team.
We are not a directory, a press-release aggregator, or a national franchise dressed up in regional clothing. The team lives in the markets we cover, and our cadence reflects that: daily editorial, weekly partner spotlights, and a small Featured roster per region so the credibility of inclusion stays high.
Editorial standards
Editorial decisions are made independently. Featured Partner spots are clearly marked and never trade access for editorial coverage of any specific story. Sources are credited inline. Errors get corrected with a timestamped note on the affected story.
