Built by Sōsuke Media — Footer Credit Kit

The standard credit that ships in the footer of every site we build. Pick a target and anchor, copy the snippet for the platform, paste it into the client's global footer.

Copy-paste versions

Every version below renders the same credit — they only differ by platform. Use the badge on modern builds, the plain text line when a footer needs to stay minimal, and the WordPress or schema block only where it applies.

Badge (pill) — recommended

The subtle footer pill used on tacticalgamehub.com. Muted, inherits any dark footer; icon is served from sosukemedia.com.

Badge (pill) — React / Next.js

Same pill as a JSX block for React footers.

WordPress (functions.php)

Adds a [sosuke_credit] shortcode you can place in any footer widget or block.

Built by Sōsuke Media

add_shortcode( 'sosuke_credit', function () {
  return '<p class="site-credit"><a href="https://sosukemedia.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Built by Sōsuke Media</a></p>';
} );

Schema (optional)

Add alongside the credit so search engines and AI crawlers connect the client site to your business.

{
  "@context": "https://schema.org",
  "@type": "WebSite",
  "creator": {
    "@type": "ProfessionalService",
    "name": "Sōsuke Media",
    "url": "https://sosukemedia.com/"
  }
}

Placement rules

Every build ships with the credit in the global footer — it is part of the standard scope, not an add-on.
Always a real crawlable <a href> to sosukemedia.com. Never rel="nofollow", never JavaScript-only, never inside an iframe.
One credit link per site. Repeating it site-wide is fine (shared footer), but do not add extra links in body copy.
Rotate the anchor text between clients so the profile does not look templated.
Keep it small and muted — 12-13px, inherits footer color, sits under the copyright line.
If a client asks for removal, that is fine — swap it out and note it in their record.
