Behind every article, updated ranking, and analysis published on Ski-Nordique.net lies the story of one man's consuming passion for sports and total commitment: Mirko Hominal. At 48 years old, this solo media entrepreneur has built what has become an essential reference point for millions of sports enthusiasts worldwide, generating over 4 million unique annual visitors and 54 million displays on Google Discover in the past year alone.
Hominal's journey to becoming a sports media powerhouse began far from the world of journalism. His professional career included varied roles as an accountant, chief accountant, and even CEO of small and medium enterprises. These experiences provided him with solid understanding of management, rigor, and strategic vision. However, beyond numbers and businesses, one passion had always driven him: sports. Since 1980, from the age of 12, he has followed sports daily, witnessing generations of athletes in action and experiencing countless major sporting events firsthand.
Armed with this encyclopedic knowledge and inner flame, Hominal made a radical decision in 2005: he quit everything to dedicate himself entirely to creating and developing Ski-Nordique.net. The venture was built on his love for Nordic skiing and biathlon, but has expanded to cover all disciplines that make the sports world vibrate. For the past 25 years, he has maintained complete editorial independence while operating as a solo force in an industry typically dominated by large teams.
Today, Hominal works 365 days a year as the sole commander of his media empire. While challenging as a family man, this approach guarantees total editorial freedom and maximum responsiveness. His mission is clear: leave nothing uncovered, criticize when justified, congratulate when deserved, denounce when necessary, and offer all the editorials he deems useful. He describes himself not as a follower of general opinion, but as an independent analyst serving sports information.
This freedom, combined with iron discipline and extraordinary execution speed, translates into impressive content volume. Hominal personally publishes between 8 and 20 articles per day, not counting permanent updates to ranking pages. To achieve this output, he conducts intensive information monitoring, consulting sports news sites from major European countries several times daily. He remains permanently ready to deliver the hottest information as quickly as possible.
The numbers speak volumes about the impact of this exceptional solo media operation. Over the past 12 months, Ski-Nordique.net has generated more than 4 million unique annual visitors, 54 million displays on Google Discover, and 5 million displays on Google News. These figures, comparable to those of media outlets with much larger teams, prove that Ski-Nordique.net has become a premier source of sports information. The platform is recognized by Google's algorithms and acclaimed by a massive audience, including coverage of sports like trail running, tennis, cycling, and alpine skiing, where Hominal's expertise and responsiveness allow him to rank very highly.
Beyond search engines, Hominal's ability to build and engage communities on social media demonstrates his audience's loyalty. After unfortunately losing a Facebook page with 45,000 followers due to hacking beyond his control, he had to start from scratch. Today, he has rebuilt a solid community with 25,000 followers on Ski-Nordique.net's main Facebook page, 7,000 followers on his "Tennis Infos" Facebook page, and 12,000 followers on X (formerly Twitter). This resilience and capacity to rebuild engaged communities testifies to the continued relevance of his content and the strength of his connection with readers.
Hominal's objective is to continue making Ski-Nordique.net the essential reference for sports information, maintaining the same passion, rigor, and independence that has defined his quarter-century career. His journey proves that with heart in the work, clear vision, and relentless effort, extraordinary things can be accomplished even when working alone. As he continues to serve millions of sports fans worldwide, Hominal represents a unique model in modern sports media - demonstrating that independence, dedication, and genuine passion can compete with and often exceed the output of much larger organizations.
