About FrontMatter

When it comes to content, publishing operations, experience matters. At FrontMatter, we’ve refined our approach since 2001 working with organizations facing challenges just like yours. 

Frontmatter — Where context begins

Frontmatter is the opening of a story — the title, preface and table of contents that frame intent and establish trust. In print it sets the tone; in digital work it becomes the metadata, structure, and editorial layer that makes content discoverable and credible.

Today Frontmatter is a modern brand for anyone building publishing, documentation or knowledge platforms. It works as a primary commercial site (.com), a technical/infrastructure address (.net), and a community or standards home (.org). The name is clear, industry-native, and instantly meaningful to writers, editors, product teams and knowledge professionals.

Owned domains since 2001 include frontmatter.com, frontmatter.org, frontmatter.net, frontmatter.uk and related variants — together they form a defensible digital identity ready for a platform, publication or product initiative.
