From time to time, an industry or subject inspires us to create a best-of list. These are sites that produce out-of-this-world coverage in a crowded arena. In case you’ve missed some of these, you can find them here. If you think your site should be considered, give us a holler and tell us why.

Evergreen content. It’s a classic journalistic practice.

A workhorse of the newsroom, this kind of repeat content can serve audiences all year long, as a complement to traditional and hard news coverage.

Journalists always have leaned on old-but-still-relevant ideas to fill gaps. Lately, however, more publications are dusting off their evergreen content practices and converting the focus entirely to service.

The difference now is the content’s purpose has evolved. With news organizations relying more heavily on subscriber models, consumer-centric content is a must-have for getting more readers to subscribe and retain.

Here are 11 websites we love for making it their mission to help readers through systematic how-to posts, guides, and first-hand storytelling.

1. Smarter Living

Service journalism has been part of The New York Times’s extensive coverage for decades, but it’s renewing the effort in the form of a strategic Smarter Living section. Stories range from trending topics like the Olympics to evergreen tips about great museums. It also creates guides on deeper topics, like how to cut out sugar.

2. Quartzy

A product of Quartz, Quartzy is a guide to living well in the new global economy. According to the site, the topics that get Quartzy’s writers up in the morning (and drive its coverage) are wellbeing, dressing, culture, design, travel, and dining. Readers can up their engagement level with Quartzy by subscribing to its weekly newsletter or chatting with “cultural companion” the Quartz Bot.

You know Tasty. Its posts and videos likely are crowding your news feed. Some might argue the Tasty brand has conquered the business of online food. That’s because you literally can search, cook recipes, and watch videos all in one place. If the online experience isn’t enough, Tasty’s shop offers up a cookbook and meal kits to get the necessities physically in your hands. The site also recently announced a partnership with Walmart, featuring a unique line of cookware to support your Tasty habit.

All are made through vigorous reporting, interviewing, and testing by teams of veteran journalists, scientists, and researchers, it says on the site.
