Taking care of business

Over the past 14 months, Press and Tower has become one of the most read blogs in the region, averaging 2,500 page views per week, while doubling that at times in recent months.

We are the “go to” source for news about the media climate in Erie, and thousands are drawn to P&T because of our special coverage of the Extreme Makeover: Home Edition build in Erie.

My goal with the site is to provide community and communication, not to make money. However, it is significantly time-consuming and expensive to provide this service. That’s why I am looking for just four superior businesses to come along side to sponsor the site and reach out to our excellent reader-base.

Demographically, we lean female, 35+, affluent, and college-educated, according to Quantcast. I think we would be a great buy for a university (continuing ed), cell phone dealer, electronics store, health-care or fitness facility, professional services, or non-profit looking for annual gifts.

I have two packages to sell for 100% showing on our site:

  • Year-end BOGO: Buy 4 weeks of display ads, get 4 weeks half-price. All ads must end by Jan. 15, 2010. Cost of package: $150.00 ($10/1000 avg. page views)
  • Six for Six: Sign a six-month 2010 contract, and get six weeks free. Cost of contract: $25/week, monthly pre-paid from PayPal. All ads end by June 30, 2010. Free six weeks at end of contract.

We can have you live in hours with a contact to joel@nataliemedia.com or sign up now on our Advertise page.

Finally, if you are not an advertiser, you can help by purchasing items in our store. We feature great retailers such as Amazon, Sierra Trading Post, CompUSA, and the Apple iTunes store.

Thanks for taking the time in considering the value of Press and Tower.

GoErie.com redesign launches

GoErie.com

GoErie.com

On Monday morning, GoErie.com went live on their new design, which had been in a beta preview for the last few months.

As the most visited media website in the region, with a Quantcast-estimated 134,000 monthly U.S. people using the site, the redesign is big news. The folks at the Erie Times-News powered site are going toward a new direction:

What you see with the new GoErie is a change in focus. The emphasis now is on you, the greater Erie community: Your events, your photos, your news and other information you need to live well in our region, from job opportunities and bargains to the latest posts from community bloggers.
