Case Studies
Two bodies of work. Both live. Both built from nothing.
No anonymised client results, no projected figures. Everything here is owned, operated, and publicly verifiable.
SIBA Digital
A public interest investigation platform built using Next.js, structured data and OSINT methodology. Nine published reports. Formal regulatory complaints. Solicitor contact from named parties.

The situation
SIBA Digital was not a client engagement. It is a platform I built and operate. The investigation methodology came first. The technical architecture was designed to support structured, verifiable publication of public records investigations at a quality level that would withstand press scrutiny.
The methodology
Company House data, land registry, planning applications, Companies House beneficial ownership registers, press archive, structured web data. All public. All cross-referenced. The structured data layer means every entity, every relationship, every source is machine-readable as well as human-readable.
The result
Formal complaints to regulatory bodies citing the SIBA reports. Solicitors acting for named parties made contact. A single published analysis reached professionals from the House of Commons, MHCLG, Transport for London, and Savills, with over 55% of the audience holding senior, director, or executive positions. The platform was built to be credible, indexed, and navigable. It is.
The commercial application: the same methodology applied to an organisation's own public digital footprint. That is the Digital Footprint Intelligence service.
Sefton Coast Network
Five editorial sites built and operated simultaneously on the same Next.js architecture. All live, all ranking, all owned.
Visitor guide and business directory. 999+ venues. The Open 2026 hub. Next.js, Prisma, PostgreSQL.
Local guide to Formby. Red squirrels, National Trust beach, pinewoods, village dining.
Championship links golf in 18 languages. Royal Birkdale, Hillside, Formby. Internationalised with next-intl.
257-species database. Birds, mammals, insects, plants. Special Area of Conservation coverage.
What this demonstrates
Five distinct editorial sites, cross-linked contextually, each with its own audience, SEO strategy, and technical requirements. Built on the same foundation and maintained by one person alongside client work. This is what properly engineered content infrastructure looks like when it is built to compound rather than to be rebuilt every two years.
The network is the proof of concept for everything Churchtown Media builds for clients.
