Ads on the Site
Advertising on Westborough.com
Welcome to the information page for advertising rates on Westborough.com. Since one of our goals is to advance the prosperity of residents and businesses in Westborough and the surrounding area, we offer advertising space for local businesses so more "Westboronians" may learn about them.
We currently offer:
- Banner ads, either on the front page of Westborough.com or in selected internal sections. There will be three types of advertisements: Top Image Banners, Side Images, and Text Links. These run for a contracted period of time.
- Site-wide Article ads, which are just like standard articles you see on the site. The intention is for these ads is to provide a somewhat in-depth business profile where you may describe your business and its offerings in some detail. Text, images (up to 3), and links will be accepted in the article These paid article ads will be "permanent" articles, and will remain on the site to be available for search engines. That is, they will not expire. There is a one-time fee for such ads, and a minor fee for subsequent updates. (Please note, the article will be labeled as a paid advertisement.)
- "Limited-run" front page article ads. These are smaller articles, which show in the front page article stream, and run for up to one month. After that, they are removed from the site. These may be useful for short-term needs, such as to promote an event or a sale. They may also be scheduled to run at a specific time in the future, through the assignment of a "start date" and a "finish date". Note, these articles may indeed scroll down as other content is published to the front page. This article, too, will be labeled as a paid advertisement.
- Text "link" ads. These offer two lines of text and a link to your site, or to a single page we will host for you if you wish.
Please note that rates for certain ad types reduce over time, based on the length of your commitment. See the table below for more information.
Anyone may create a listing in the the business directory for free. Images such as an icon (80x80) and logo (300w x 250h) may also be added to your directory entry, free of charge.
