Meet Our Readers
People visiting our site are primarily from and around Erie County, Pennsylvania. They are technologically-savvy people who visit from their homes and from their workplaces. We have a loyal readership because of the community we inspire and bring together. We can’t think of any other local sites whose readers get together once a month to talk technology, Erie and more.
Looking to further enhance your brand? We have readers at every major employer in Erie, every local media outlet and key decision-makers in our region, so your ad will get noticed and the word will spread.
High Impact Advertising
Unlike other websites where your ad will be lost in a sea of other loud, flashing graphics competing for attention, ErieBlogs has been designed both for the reader and advertiser in mind. For the advertiser, we’re offering select, limited advertising spaces to ensure that your advertising gets maximum “eyeballs.” For the reader, we promise not to beat them over the head with obnoxious ads, annoying pop-ups, and other advertising abuse that drives traffic away or at the least, minimizes the impact of your ad.
With over 60% of our readers returning daily and thousands of viewers each month, your business gets remembered. That’s the point of advertising isn’t it?
Let Us Do The Work For You
Don’t have a team of designers or an existing advertising campaign? Fret not, we will work with you to create a campaign that is both exciting and enticing. We can provide something very creative that will get results and at no extra cost to you.
Have a website? Perfect, we’ll link your ad to the web page of your choice. Don’t have one yet? No problem - we’ll host a one-page mini-site for you.
Want something completely different and off-the-wall? Great, talk to us and we’ll figure something out. We’re both flexible and innovative because every business is different, and every advertising campaign is unique.
Advertising Packages
Our advertising plans are designed to be simple and affordable. Unlike websites that set prices based on hits or click-through, ErieBlogs sells ad packages that can be purchased by the month, bi-weekly, weekly or even daily basis. This way you know exactly how long your ad will appear allowing you to coordinate with your own marketing and sales practices.
ErieBlogs also doesn’t load down pages with as many ads as we can fit. Our pages feature at most four exclusive ad slots. This prevents diluting your ad exposure and gives you more bank for your buck. You can view an example of how advertisements are placed on erieblogs.com by clicking the image to the right.
Special: As part of the relaunch of erieblogs.com, all advertising will receive a 30% discount for ads displayed between October through December of 2008.
Ad block 1: This is the mother of all of our ads. The ad is immediately visable once a page is loaded (”above the fold”) and gets the most exposure. Packages available include bi-weekly and monthly placement beginning at $750 $525.
Ad block 2: Another “above the fold” ad in the banner of the website with great visibility. Packages available include weekly, biweekly, and monthly beginning at $500 $350.
Ad block 3: You know how radio talk shows work into their dialogue a paid advertisement? That’s the idea behind this ad. This is a daily sponsorship ad which is in text and not image form. Available on a daily basis for $75 $52.
Ad block 4: The more economical ad when compared to ad block’s 1 & 2 which is placed after an entry. Packages available include weekly, biweekly, and monthly beginning at $200 $140.
Job board, blog browser, and special editions: Beyond the above ad options, ErieBlogs also features a number of resources for our user including a job board and blog browser (more on these tools here) as well as special entries featuring an event or item of interest. These unique pages offer yet another way to reach out to our audience. Ad placement and prices on these pages vary.
In addition to the above ads, we can also provide custom solutions. Feel free to pitch us your idea for advertising and marketing with ErieBlogs. We’ll be happy to listen.
