I’m Jason England — a tech/gaming journalist, YouTube content creator and freelance digital marketer based in the UK.

New Rising Media is a collection of technology and gaming content, and restaurant digital marketing work crafted by me, Jason England!

These passions are a little “all over the place,” I know, so let me explain. My love for the geekier side of the world started when I picked up my first copy of Real Robots magazine and inherited my parents’ Commodore 64.

My love for food came from a day in New York’s Chelsea Market, when one visit to Los Tacos No. 1 inspired me to use my 15 years of digital marketing and PR experience to support restaurants with a passion.

These loves have manifested themselves across many media forms — a tech-focused blog with over 5,000,000 page views, a YouTube channel with over 3,100 subscribers and 1,000,000 views, several successful restaurant social media presences with a collective total of over 500,000 followers, and 10 restaurant websites that consistently rank within the top 3 of Google SERP for broad terms related to them.

And after 13 years of hard work on my own tech/gaming projects, freelancing for the likes of Stuff Magazine, BBC Science Focus and Kotaku, and becoming a Content Editor for Laptop Mag and Tom’s Hardware (making plans that led to a 47% average affiliate revenue increase), I achieved my dream job: a role looking after an incredible team, as Managing Editor, Computing for Tom’s Guide.

My first printed byline for Stuff Magazine — the first publication to take a chance on me!

It’s been a while since I started New Rising Media on September 22nd 2011, and it has gone through a lot of change throughout.

In the early years, I worked with some amazing people — Richard, Helen, Harvey and Jamie. Nowadays, it is a place for me to show you what I get up to and occasionally update the blog.

From the bottom of my heart, thanks for stopping by. I hope you enjoy what I make!

Much love,

Jason


Digital Marketing for the Independents

I provide digital marketing services, including social media management, website design/maintenance, and digital PR to several independent businesses.

It started with over ten years of digital marketing experience: managing the social media presence of several national and international brands, while creating websites, logo treatments, and planning/managing the roll-out of marketing strategies.

Now, I’m dedicated to working with my friend Rhys Callow — providing these services to small/medium businesses at an affordable rate with clear targets.

My work has helped businesses increase their reach and engagement by an average of 40%, paired with an average increase in business of 15%.

“Our relationship was cemented during lockdown where they were just brilliant! They showed real care and helped us get through a tough period by thinking on their feet, always being there to take a call and of course posting to our customers.

Over the past decade, I have worked hard on developing my own style of video content creation — talking about gadgets and games in an engaging, unique way.

I am proud of the results across my own YouTube channel, Tom’s Guide’s TikTok and for Laptop Mag. Take a look and let me know what you think in the comments!
