Memory Cafe Directory offers brands six advertising options, allowing for a campaign that perfectly fits your promotion strategy. Position your products or services in front of thousands of monthly website visitors.
Advertising Options
First, start with this summary of advertising positions, and then see the rest of the details below.
1Website Header For maximum visibility, display your brand at the top of every page view. Whether it’s the home page, any state or region page, or any of the resource articles viewed, your brand will be visible.
2Left Sidebar Advertising on the left sidebar starts at the top position. New ads are placed below existing ones. You will hold your position as long as you keep your advertising active. If an advertiser does not renew their campaign, all current sidebar ads move up one position.
3Bottom Footer Similar to the Website Header, the Bottom Footer is shown with every page view. There are two positions available, one left; one right. Choose either one or both to display your brand with every page view.
4State/Region Page Memory Cafe Directory is geographically-based. Visitors are looking for Memory Cafes and other resources near them. Companies offering products or services in a given region can use a State or Region Page to be highly targeted. Your ad will only appear on those pages, but will be visible to people living in your service area. Choose between the top of the page or above specific city headers for even more geo-targeting.
Another opportunity is on the newly added “CAFE CONNECT” page. While we are all practicing social distancing, Virtual Memory Cafes are growing as opportunities to connect electronically.
5Monthly Cafe Chatter Newsletter The Cafe Chatter email newsletter is sent to over 3,300 subscribers. As the sponsor for that edition, your brand is prominently positioned in the email. First, at the very top with verbiage indicating this edition is sponsored by…. Then at the end, a more detailed description, along with your logo is displayed. Consider it like a “Bio.”
