601am originally launched as a personal blog in 2000. As blogging became more popular, and as 601am grew to a large number of readers, many media companies asked for Principal Aaron Bailey's help in starting their own blogs. In 2008, 601am became a formal company. Since then, 601am has grown into a mature business helping clients publish not just blogs, but all types of content.
