Why a Local Spotlight

Not a banner ad — a featured recommendation

Local Spotlight placements are visually distinct from network display ads and sit inside the actual guide content — on the Beaches, Hotels & Rentals, Things To Do, and Restaurants pages, and on the homepage. They're sold directly to a small number of local businesses per page, not through a network.

Placements

Where your business can appear

Homepage Spotlight

One rotating placement on the homepage — the highest-traffic page on the site.

Category Page Spotlight

Sidebar placement on Beaches, Hotels & Rentals, Things To Do, or Restaurants — matched to your business type.

Featured Listing

Your hotel, rental community, or restaurant written into the guide itself with priority placement at the top of its category.

Newsletter Mention

Once the site has a subscriber list, a mention slot in the seasonal trip-planning email.

Who this is for

Sarasota-area businesses

Hotels and resorts, condo and vacation-rental communities, restaurants, tour and charter operators, real estate agents specializing in the barrier islands, and local service businesses (moving, cleaning, golf cart rental) that a visitor or new arrival would need.
