It is our great honor that
you are visiting this page. This page creates
the fuel by which the
Carolina Golf News Today
can supply the
tens of thousands of North Carolina golfers with
daily updates on news, stories and articles from
all across the golf spectrum of North Carolina.
Targeting customers in a
media fragmented marketplace is a continual
challenge for many advertisers. The abundance of
advertising sources has overwhelmed and divided
consumer attention. This means media planners
and buyers need the right tools to help them
decide on the best allocation of advertising
dollars. As advertisers strive for an effective
media mix, they should know there is one medium
that can deliver strength to their advertising
and marketing strategies.
| The
Carolina
Golf News Today will become that powerful
medium for reaching the golfers of North
Carolina. The golf industry is all wrapped
around the internet and because of that with the
new 3G and 4G technologies it will be a portable
and convenient source of advertising information
that helps the preferred consumer decide where
to shop and what to buy. How will the
Carolina
Golf News Today make all of that happen? |
|
Each and every day six
times a week the
Carolina
Golf News Today will
deliver the advertisers message to the North
Carolina golfer’s desktop, laptop, notebook or
phone. To draw the most preferred consumer
demographic to an advertiser’s message on their
desktop, laptop, notebook or phone will be all
of the days happening in North Carolina golf.
With hundreds of North Carolina middle schools,
high schools, colleges, golf courses, golf
associations and tours reporting daily all that
they do will open up to the advertiser access to
the young and old of both genders and all skill
levels of the most preferred consumer
demographic in North Carolina, the North
Carolina Golfers!
Sounds great but how will
my ad stand out among the many that will appear
on your internet newspaper? Great question!
The
Carolina Golf News Today
will have five
major sections. There will be the “Front Page”
where the major “Headlines” will be displayed.
The other four sections will be the “East
Region,” “Mid-East Region,” “Mid-West Region”
and the "West Region."
These Regions will be aligned as close as
possible to the alignment that the NCHSAA has
their regions lined up.

We have established lines
of communications with over 300 high school golf
coaches and that number is growing daily. We
have made contact with all of the Junior Tours
that play in North Carolina. In addition we have
establish contact with all of North Carolina's
college's, Universities and community
college golf coaches and lastly we are in the
process of contacting every public,
semi-private and private golf course in North
Carolina. We have created a very extensive news
and information network that pertains only to
golf. As we proceed into the year we will be
making contact with all of the independent high
schools and middle schools in North Carolina
requesting them to also feed the news and
information about their school's golf teams to us.
When you
extrapolate the numbers we conservatively
believe that our website will be getting 32,000
hits a week by year end. Why? The very ones who
are making the news is giving us the news. They
and their friends, neighbors, relatives and
others will be
the ones who want to see their stories, names
and photos on our website.
Here is how
we perceive North Carolina readers will use the
Carolina Golf News Today.
They will be
driven to our site by their demand to know the
latest golfing news that has happened in and
around North
Carolina and since we up-date every night but
Saturday the chances are that the reader will
visit our site six days a week. Currently in
North Carolina there is no other site that
updates six nights a week. This just means your
ad will have more opportunities to been seen and
acted upon.
All readers
will enter our site on the “Front Page" where the
biggest golf “Headlines” of the day
will appear. The "Headline" page will have
stories with only a paragraph or two at the most
with one photo. The rest of the story will be
buried back into one of the four regional
sections where the story originates thus taking
the reader back to that section. Once the reader
moves on to a Regional Front Page and has digested the
remainder of the
"Headlines" from the "Front Page" they
will find on the Regional Front Page other news
and articles from that region as well as High
School Headline stories. From each of the four
Regional Front Pages the visitor can check out
any one or all of the High School Conference
play of that region by clicking on one of the
links at the left. This will take the visitor
all the way down to the ground level of all the
NCHSAA matches held in North Carolina. .

This will allow advertisers from
the home town of any high school in North
Carolina to advertise on the Conference Front
Page.
Every page
will have a top and bottom scroll that will have
only four ads on them. In addition each page
will have a limited number of side bar
banner ads. Every page will be allowed to have
three (3) display ads with a minimum size of 150
pixels by 100 pixels. Every ad will be hyper
linked back to a home website giving the viewer
immediate access to that business in order to
make a purchase.
Every Side Bar Banner Ad
purchase will be entitled to have an AD
PAGE between their banner and their
home webpage. This AD PAGE
can be updated every two weeks. Ask your rep.
about all of the details on this AD
PAGE. For those businesses that do
not have a website this AD PAGE
can act as one.
The combination of our daily up
dating and the humongous news and information
network that we are developing from Murphy to
Manteo is what will drive North Carolina golfers
by the thousands to our website daily. Thus
enhancing your opportunity to sell your product
or service.
Today
the golf world travels via the internet
to check out localities, real estate, courses
etc. Our newspaper has and will continue to get
hits from all over the world. We have even had
inquires from Vietnam. So when a reader from
outside North Carolina comes to the
Carolina Golf News Today
they will
explore every part of it – region by region. In
their exploration of the different sections they
will find news items from advertised golf
business as well as the hot link to your golf
business. People love to belong to places where
activities are happening so they will not be
able to resist hitting your hot link to your ad
page to find out all about you.
So let’s get together and
talk about how the
Carolina Golf News Today
can help bring
that much needed revenue to your side of the
ledger. Call 828-465-4693 and ask for Tom.
