Advertising on MichiganFireworks.com

I'm working on this section - honest.

Every year, I get asked if I will include links on my site, or if I will accept direct advertising.

It's a difficult subject.  As far as the links - the links I add are the ones *I* like, and that I use myself and feel will be of value to my readers.  I don't sell links, and I won't link to just anyone.  If you want to ask me to look at your site and consider it for a link, go ahead - but don't get your hopes up.  I also don't have time to do a lot of reviewing.

As far as advertising - I will consider it, and am working on figuring out my rates.  I want to offer something comparable to the advertising I already run.  I do reserve the right to approve the ads *and* the destination site and/or url, and to refuse advertising I'd rather not run, for reasons I may or may not specify.  I will only run family-friendly advertising.

The sizes I plan on having available will be standard 125x125, 468x60 and 160x600 ad blocks (I'll put up sample sizes later) 

There will be some pricing posted later - it will be a sliding scale; obviously due to the nature of my site, advertising is worth more at some times of the year rather than others.

I get the most traffic between Memorial Day and July 9th or 10th; up to 70,000 pageviews per day.  There are also smaller spikes around Labor Day and New Year's Eve.  I do get traffic year round, but obviously, it pales in comparison to what I get in the summer.

As of this writing, the site enjoys stellar search engine position in all three major search engines, usually listed in the top three results for every major town, date & village in Michigan.  Last year, when Yahoo released search information about fireworks searches by state, Michigan came in first by a wide margin.  And this site sits squarely in the number one position for that search, and has for several years.

If you are interested in advertising to a Michigan audience, drop me a line.
