Lesson Info
Local Newspapers and Sponsorship
if you run an event or do something newsworthy like opening a new branch, renovating your premises or even sponsoring a local event, you can get in touch with your local paper and they will publish it. Most of these newspapers also have an online edition. So this is a chance to get your name out there while also gaining a quality editorial link from a local newspaper. And this is an example of an amazing local back link. Local committees, clubs, societies, schools, and a huge range of other local organizations need sponsorship, they need funding to keep the doors open. They openly invite sponsorship and that's an opportunity to gain some valuable links and mentions for your business while doing something good for the community to when you sponsor an organization. They'll be happy to add your business information to their website along with a link to your site Again, this is an amazing type of local back link if you can get it, this is the Rio del mar Improvement Association website and...
we're on the sponsors page of their site. So the businesses that are pairing here have paid probably, I'm guessing a minimal amount to appear here based on the type of businesses, but they are getting something amazing in return. They're getting back links to their website from a real Rio del mar Association, which is fantastic. So the Rio Sands Hotel has a link to their site here, bailey properties has a link to their site here and so does this Pizza shop, which means that the Rio sands hotel, a vacation rental place called bailey property management and a pizza shop. Local Rio del Mar Pizza shop are all getting an amazing local back link from a legitimate local organization. Uh, this is something that is highly desirable if you're a local business based in Rio del Mar, and that's how you can go ahead and do it through some sponsorship opportunities.
