Thank you for enquiring about advertising on www.ascotmatters.co.uk, the Essential LOCAL website.

BOX ADVERTS

Box adverts are part of an advertising package.  This includes a box advert on the EVENTS pages, hyperlinked to your website, or a dedicated page on AscotMatters which shows more information about your business (ideal for those who don't have their own website). This page is where readers are taken when using the AscotMatters search box. A box advert also entitles you to a listing in the DIRECTORY/Advertisers (popular with Google) and free listings in the MAIN EVENTS list. Your advert will be introduced to readers in the next available, weekly e-mail to subscribers.

Costs

A standard box advert on the events page costs £3 per week (minimum six weeks). The box adverts at the top of the events page cost £8, £7.50, £6.50, £5  and £4.50 . Any number of weeks can be booked, from 6 - 26.

Design and Set Up

To set up an advert is quick and easy and requires no technical expertise - though ability to send e-mails is an advantage. The function of the box advert is to catch the readers' eye while browsing the articles/listing so should be bold and eyecatching. They are hyperlinked so there is no need to include all the information. We will put together design options, which you can review until you are happy with the result. Set up can cost as little as little as £10, especially if you have a logo already.  Alternatively, our in -house graphic designer can prepare a box advert from £25 on a see-before- you- buy basis.   All the preparation and negotiation is done by us - just describe what must be included  in your box advert and your brand image.

POST-IT NOTES

These are an e-version of paper post it notes; they are eye catching and are hyperlinked to your own website or AscotMatters dedicated page (see above). 

Costs

Set up costs just  £5 and the weely cost is £2 per week. These appear on the Clubs & Groups and pages other than the Home or Events pages, wherever space permits

SPONSORSHIP

Sponsorship is by invitation only  and costs £12 per week. As well as the advantages of a box advert, sponsors have  a presence on the HOME page (including a hyperlinked listing in 'Sponsored Links', and a box advert), plus their hyperlinked logo on AscotMatters e-stationery.

MINI WEBSITES

The Mini Website  offers a website of your own, within AscotMatters - ideal for any business who would like to make use of AscotMatters' popularity. It can even come with your own unique address eg www.ascotmatters.co.uk/mybusiness  We can set this up for you, so no technical expertise is required on your part. They are ideal for those advertisers who:

• do not have a website
• whose website is static or out of date,
• or for businesses who need a small website to offer something slightly different to their main website.

There are three types of Microsite: Gold, Silver and Bronze, starting at £6 per week for a minimum term of 6 months.
