ADVERTISE WITH US Our Mission And Advertising Rates
We are the perfect combination of gardeners and webmasters! Our mission is to create the most outstanding and informative website available on the net - combining quality products, services and keeping the public informed of must-see gardening events!
By creating our domain, at www.plantlovers.com, it is our on-going desire to build and maintain a truly international gardening web site. The horticultural community is growing by leaps and bounds - and the internet is no longer the information highway of the "future" .... that future is NOW!
By placing your business or service into the plantlovers.com domain - your information will be accessed by hundreds of thousands of people around the world at the click of a button! Our web site is maintained on a daily basis, thereby keeping completely up-to-date on all upcoming events that you want your clients to be aware of! We are entering into all the major and specialty search engines on the internet with multiple key words that will ensure our site is selected by everyone doing random searches for any kind of gardening information!
Compare the minimal cost of listing with us to your other marketing strategies - unlike newspaper, radio or television advertising - the internet will carry your information to people 365 days a year, 24 hours a day! From a marketing standpoint - those statistics are pretty tough to beat!
One of our advertisers just reported receiving a $1,750.00 (American) order because a customer found him on our Web Site. Bloomsberry Designer Gardens in New Westminster, B.C. recently received a $50,000.00 contract from a customer in Seattle, WA because the customer found Bloomsberry listed on www.plantlovers.com! Can you afford to lose that type of business?
Our Rates
Our annual fee is only $60.00 American (no taxes) or $60.00 Canadian plus GST for text only. If you have text and/or artwork images ad $10 for each image. We bill you annually, not monthly, in order to keep our overhead and your overall fee down.
Your listing will consist of the following: Company Name and Address, Telephone number(s) of your business or service; Hours of operation; Directions to get to you (for retail operations); and a written summary of your business - what YOU want to stress to potential clients or patrons; a photograph of your choice, be it of your business or a certain plant or product you wish to promote; and a link to your own homepage or web site should you have one. You may also inform us of any upcoming events that you are involved in - either open houses, special event days, etc. and we will happily add it to our "Upcoming Events" menu.
Guest Speakers: If you would like to promote yourself to talk at Garden Clubs, Seminars, etc... we offer a $20.00 American or $20.00 Canadian plus GST listing in our Guest Speaker Section. If, however, you also choose to list your business in any of our regular catagories as shown in the above rates, then your Guest Speaker Listing is complimentary. Remember that our fee is much less than the usual amount that you would receive from just one Guest Speaker referral that you would receive from this web site.
