Why Advertise on MinnesotaWaterfowler.com?

It is a researched fact that newspaper and magazine sales are dropping as more and more people turn to the internet for information. Internet usage grew 115% from 2000 - 2005*. Don't waste your time any longer on traditional media. Advertise where the people are-on the internet.

Are you a Minnesota business? Does your business reach waterfowlers in any way? Minnesota has become one of the most notable waterfowling Meccas in the nation, with more duck and goose hunters than any other state. MWF provides the viewer with a chance to plan their entire trip right here. They can check the weather, ask questions in the forums, and view the regulations. With the help of our Locate feature, viewers can also find outfitters, lodging, dining, taxidermists, kennels, and more.

It's time to get online. Choose from one of our advertising plans or ask us about creating a custom plan just for you.

Advertising Options

Locate Feature:
Place your business in the Locate feature for only $25 a year. A picture and description of your business will be placed under a particular business category under the Locate button. Include location, a link to your website (if you have one), contact information, rates-whatever you want the viewer to know about your business-in the description section. You will also receive the free benefits of an MWF advertiser. Locate categories include:

•  Guides/Outfitters
•  Lodging/Dining
•  Taxidermy
•  Kennels
•  Supporting Businesses

Users can locate your business by either 1.) searching by region or 2.) searching by category.

Vendor Spotlight:
The Vendor Spotlight is a set ad in that it does not rotate between other ads. It is always there when a viewer visits the page and therefore receives a lot of traffic. Your ad can be placed here for only $100 a month. You will also receive the free benefits of an MWF advertiser. Reserve your month now, as these spots fill up quickly.

Rotating Banner:

Rotating Banner (468 x 60 px)

Purchase a banner on MWF and advertise on every page of the website. Banners are located at the top of each page, resulting in being the first image to load when the site is visited. Banners will rotate amongst other banners on a random basis throughout the site and will act as a link to your website. This is the most active option for advertising on MWF. Also, you will receive the free benefits of an MWF advertiser. Banners are $200 a year.

Monthly Article:
If you feel that banner ads are not for you or you just want added exposure, we can write up an article for you that will appear on the home page of the website. We will actually interview you about your product/service and write a full fletched article for the website. The article will include one picture and a link to your website. $100/month.

The Package:
Take full advantage of everything that MinnesotaWaterfowler.com has to offer. The Package includes a listing in the Locate Feature for one year, a Rotating Banner for one year, a Vendor Spotlight for one month, and a Monthly Article for one month. Receive the free benefits of an MWF advertiser and all four options (valued at $425) for $350 a year.

MWF Free Advertising Benefits:
As an MWF advertiser, you will receive free benefits throughout the site including: placing links in the forums and photo gallery, participating in giveaways, and free MWF gear. All ads, including banners, will be designed and created according to your taste at no cost.

Banner Design:
We charge a small fee of $25 for the design and use of your banner. Be sure to contact us if you have any other graphic design needs.

Web Design:
Getting online has become a necessity in today's world. If you are a business owner and you don't have a web page, then you are missing out on a huge percentage of your market.
