The brand was founded on April 1, 1991, as a general interest technology portal from [[Ziff Davis]] and evolved into an [[Enterprise software|enterprise IT]]-focused online publication. In 2024, ZDNET reunited with Ziff Davis after it bought it and CNET from Red Ventures, which originally bought the website from CBS Interactive from 2020. ==History== ===Beginnings: 1991–1995=== ZDNET began as a subscription-based digital service called "ZiffNet" that offered computing information to users of [[CompuServe]]. It featured computer industry forums, events, features and searchable archives. Initially, ZiffNet was intended to serve as a common place to find content from all [[Ziff-Davis]] print publications. As such, ZiffNet was an expansion on an earlier online service called PCMagNet for readers of [[PC Magazine]]. Launched in 1988, [[PC Magazine|PCMagNet]] in turn was the evolution of Ziff Davis' first electronic publishing venture, a bulletin board, which launched in 1985.<ref name="Ziff-Davis">{{Cite web |date=April 1, 1996 |title=ZDNet celebrates five years of success in subscription online services |url=http://www.thefreelibrary.com/ZD+NET+CELEBRATES+FIVE+YEARS+OF+SUCCESS+IN+SUBSCRIPTION+ONLINE...-a018143807 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160305074037/http://www.thefreelibrary.com/ZD+NET+CELEBRATES+FIVE+YEARS+OF+SUCCESS+IN+SUBSCRIPTION+ONLINE...-a018143807 |archive-date=2016-03-05 |access-date=April 1, 2010 |publisher=Ziff-Davis}}</ref> In late 1994, Ziff-Davis expanded onto the World Wide Web under the name "ZD Net".<ref>{{Cite web | title = ZIFF-DAVIS offers advertisers space on world wide web; Charter marketers include Oracle and Gateway 2000 | publisher = Ziff-Davis | date = March 29, 1995 | url = http://www.thefreelibrary.com/ZIFF-DAVIS+OFFERS+ADVERTISERS+SPACE+ON+WORLD+WIDE+WEB%3b+CHARTER...-a016731794 | access-date = April 1, 2010 | archive-date = December 10, 2017 | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20171210123955/https://www.thefreelibrary.com/ZIFF-DAVIS+OFFERS+ADVERTISERS+SPACE+ON+WORLD+WIDE+WEB%3b+CHARTER...-a016731794 | url-status = dead }}</ref><ref name="IDCH">{{Cite book |author=Pederson |first=Jay P. |url=http://www.fundinguniverse.com/company-histories/ziff-davis-media-inc-history/ |title=International Directory of Company Histories |publisher=[[St. James Press]] |year=2001 |isbn=978-1-55862-441-2 |volume=36 |location=Detroit, Michigan |pages=521–526 |oclc=769045545 |ol=8607071M}}</ref> Dan Farber, former editor-in-chief of ''[[PC Week]]'' and ''[[MacWeek]]'', was named editor-in-chief of the property.<ref>{{Cite web |date=May 2, 1996 |title=ZIFF-DAVIS announces promotion of Dan Farber to vice president and editor-in-chief of ZDNet |url=http://www.thefreelibrary.com/ZIFF-DAVIS+ANNOUNCES+PROMOTION+OF+DAN+FARBER+TO+VICE+PRESIDENT+AND...-a018245012 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110511122242/https://www.thefreelibrary.com/ZIFF-DAVIS+ANNOUNCES+PROMOTION+OF+DAN+FARBER+TO+VICE+PRESIDENT+AND...-a018245012 |archive-date=2011-05-11 |access-date=April 1, 2010 |publisher=Ziff-Davis}} </ref> By June 1995, the site was recording web traffic of 2.5 million pageviews per week.<ref name="ZD-unifies"/> On June 20, 1995, Ziff-Davis announced the consolidation of its online information services under a single name, ''ZD Net''.
