12 REASONS TO
ADVERTISE IN OUR LOCAL WEB DIRECTORIES
Why should you have an ad in
a USA Web
Directories
local directory
just to promote your own website?
A website can be a
very economical way to promote your business to many prospective
customers all over the world, but they have to find your website
first, and registering with the search engines just isn't enough
anymore!
Twelve reasons why you should advertise in
a USA Web
Directories
local directory:
WHEN
VISITORS FIND US, THEY FIND YOU The whole
purpose of our city and state web directories is to provide
the visitors to each of them with information about the
featured city or state and to
direct them to the local businesses who can supply them
with what they are looking for. Our visitors aren't
just out surfing the Web. They are seeking a specific
product or service in a particular area. When they
read your listing or ad in one of our directories,
they are very targeted, hot prospects for you!
YOU
PAY ONLY FOR RESULTS We
charge you just for the visitors who actually click-through
and see your website. Why waste your money buying
unproductive ad "impressions" on people who are
not potential customers? Why pay for
"circulation" to magazine or newspaper readers who may never see your
ad? Why pay high prices for radio or television
advertising which many people will never hear or see? With
our online local directories, you can pay only for responses
to your ad or listing, not for the number of times
it is displayed.
OPTIONAL MONTHLY
RATES You may choose our Monthly
Rates for ads and listings if you believe they will give you
a better value for the number of responses you
consistently receive. This can save you a lot of money
compared to the directories and search engines offering
only Cost-Per-Click prices, especially if you bid for
them!
OUR
PAGES GET HIGH RANKINGS We have over 600 pages
in the ARIZONA LIFE directory alone, and many
of these achieve high rankings in the
search engine listings. Each local directory page
focuses on a different set of key words relevant to travel, relocation,
recreation, and entertainment in its area, so searchers click-through to
any one of our directories on a wider range of searches than most
ordinary websites. We are continuing to develop
more of these specialized directory websites for Western and
Gulf Coast cities and states all the time.
WE
HAVE MANY SPECIALIZED PAGES Many of our
listing pages are so specific to an area or activity in a
city or state that
they rank high in the search engine ratings for certain key
words just on their own merits. We hand-craft pages in
HTML and draw just ad and listing information from our databases, so our
pages permanently exist and actually can be found by the web
crawlers and spiders of the search engines.
WE
PAY TO BE AT THE TOP On some
search engines, we pay a fee to be at the top of the
results listings when a web user searches for topics
featured in our city and state directories. This guarantees that we will get noticed while
others are buried several pages back in the listings.
WE
RUN BANNER ADS TO GET VISITORS We have
thousands of banner ads appearing in other websites to
promote our local directories all over the United
States and Canada. When someone clicks on our banners,
they are immediately taken to either the home page or one of
the
topic-specific pages of one of our local directories.
When they find us, they find
you!
OTHER
WEBSITES SEND US VISITORS Hundreds of websites who specialize in travel, recreation,
entertainment, and relocation information have our banner
ads and text links permanently displayed on their pages. More
websites are adding links to us each
week, and the number of visitors we receive just keeps
increasing! Of course, this also increases our popularity ratings with
the search engines and gives us better rankings on their
search results pages. When we get more traffic, so
will you!
WE
PROMOTE RECOGNITION OF OUR SITE Our advertising
cards are being placed in prominent locations all around
the West to increase awareness of our web directories and promote
travel and recreation in the Western and Gulf Coast states.
We are developing relationships with radio and television
stations and chambers of commerce in the cities in all of
the states our directories represent. The more folks
who know about us, the more visitor traffic we get,
and the more often they find you!
OUR
ADVERTISING WORKS FOR YOU We are placing
paid ads in newspapers and magazines that target people who
are interested in your area. We will be spending
thousands of dollars to attract tourists, business
travelers, local residents, retirees, and anyone wanting to
relocate to a Western or Gulf Coast city or state. We
have the information they want. And when they find us, they find
you!
OUR
VISITORS TELL OTHERS ABOUT US In addition to
our listings of attractions and services, each local
directory has colorful
photos, maps, articles, and facts about the area it
represents. This makes our
websites interesting and draws even more visitors through
word-of-mouth and personal recommendations. Yep, and
when all of these people find us, they will
find you!
WE
ARE GETTING STRONG RESULTS The number of
visitors to our websites is increasing enormously. We
are currently getting more than
120,000 page views per month in just ARIZONA
LIFE alone. That's visitor page views, not the inflated numbers of "hits"
that others quote! And the whole purpose of our
existence is to pass some of those visitors along to YOU!
Potentially, many of our visitors
can become your customers, because When they find
us, they find you!
With
an attention-getting Custom Banner Ad, Premium Display Ad, or Enhanced Listing on the pages of
our online local directories, you have access to many tourists, winter
visitors, summer
visitors, retirees, business travelers, students, permanent residents, and people
who are wanting to relocate to your area — all folks who come to our website looking specifically for things
to see, do, and buy — the very things you want to sell
to them. And these people might not find your website at all
if they didn't find your advertising in our directories.
Considering how
extremely inexpensive our rates are compared to the daily, monthly,
or annual rates of newspapers, magazines, and printed yellow
page directories in your state, targeting your advertising with
one or more USA Web
Directories online local
directories may be one of the best advertising values on a
cost-per-customer basis you can buy!
A commercial website like a
USA Web
Directories
directory is
maintained or "hosted" on a large main-frame computer
called a "web-server" which is connected directly to
the Internet. To display a web page on your computer, your
browser requests the necessary files from the
web-server, and the web-server sends a copy of those files to
your computer.
The term "HITS"refers to ALL files that are requested. This means
that all graphic files and photo files are
counted as HITS, in addition to the file that contains the text
and instructions in HTML just for displaying the page. A
single web page can contain 10 to 20 or more of these other
files, and each one is counted as a HIT on the web-server.
The term "PAGE VIEWS"
refers to the number of complete pages seen by all
visitors to a website. The term "VISITORS"
refers to the number of people who view pages on a
website during a given period of time.
We believe that stating our
number of PAGE VIEWS in a month is the most accurate way
to describe the traffic our web site receives. Because
many files may be required to display one page, using HITS
grossly overstates the traffic count to the point of
misrepresentation. And because any one visitor may see
several pages during a visit, using VISITORS would
actually understate the viability of our site as an advertising
medium and source of information.
