Sorted magazine and original website Sortedmag.com were first created and launched in the United Kingdom in 2004 by Brighton publisher Russell Church. The title was geared to the lads' mag market but failed to establish a strong enough demographic share, with the debut edition overestimating its potential popularity with a 250,000 print run. The original Sorted magazine folded after just four editions leaving staff jobless and unpaid. In 2007 a south coast neighbour of Russell Church saw an opportunity to relaunch Sorted magazine as a Christian evangelistic title aimed at reclaiming a place in the lads' mag marketplace. With a team of publishing professionals on board the new look Sorted magazine achieved some circulation success during the post-Leveson Inquiry period where both advertisers and readers seemed to be seeking publications with strong moral credentials.
