Placing a prominent right-column display ad on any (or all) of our seven regional home pages - with a link to your corporate site - can effectively generate more leads, more exposure, and more sales activity for your business.
A Partnership
Your display ad on our websites benefits both of us. We are a non-profit, charitable corporation whose mission is to provide greater exposure for Upstate New York artists, shops and galleries, arts and craft shows and events, and arts-related venues and organizations. Our corporation has low administrative costs and expenses, but we do require revenues from donors and advertisers to continue offering our free web-based services to Upstate New York's arts community. Your ad will not only benefit your business but will also help us in supporting the arts in Upstate New York.
More Than Advertising
As an advertiser, you will also be a sponsor of our charitable work on behalf of Upstate New York artists. More than ever before, those who rely on the creating and selling of art and crafts need all the support and exposure they can get. Our free, detailed listings provide them with an effective way to reach the buying public. Your support through advertising on our pages will help them, too.
Unbeatable Value
Our very successful Finger Lakes website has been operating for several years. Last year, we added the Adirondacks and North Country regions. Now, with with the launching of new integrated websites and a sortable interactive database, we have added four new regions (Western New York; Leatherstocking and Mohawk Valley; Capital Region, and Catskill- Lower Hudson). To support that major expansion and commitment, we are argressively promoting our regional websites through a continiung series of public service announcements to all print media in Upstate New York. While the expansion of listings and page hits has been steady in the past, we expect our listings to now grow quickly. We are branding the site as "the most comprehensive, fastest-growing directory artists and arts resources in Upstate New York," and the size and scope of our detailed listings provides credibilty for our claim
