Advertise With Us
Our advertisers provide quality goods and services and support this site. If you have a sailing, boating, maritime or tourism - related business, then SAILMichigan sponsorship can help you gain greater exposure to sailors and boaters in Michigan and the Midwest.
Some highlights:
- SailMichigan is one of the few sailing information sites enjoying direct links (as a resource) from PureMichigan and the Michigan Boat Industries Association.
- SailMichigan enjoys top Google rankings using appropriate key terms (i.e. Michigan sailing information, Michigan sailing lakes, Michigan sailing events)
- Our site provides a national interest draw with a Midwest focus
- SailMichigan has been a vendor participant in the MHA Schooner Festival in Traverse City and Quietwater symposium in East Lansing.
There are currently a limited number of spaces available. Michigan-based businesses in the above catagories receive priority for sponsorship consideration, however other sponsors are welcome. Several advertising options are available including low cost business listings and high-visibility banners. If you don't have a pre-set banner, we will create one for you for free, using your company logo or current website graphic. For more information please contact us directly either at advertising@sailmichigan.org or at 810.588.8182 for contract specifics and additional benefits.

In addition to our own banner placements (on the homepage and interior page top-right corners), SailMichigan currently displays Google Adwords Wide Skyscraper (180 x 600px) and 200 x 200px (image/media content) ads. If you currently have and use a Google Adwords account (and use the above Ad formats), you can specify SailMichgan.org to be included in your ad placements. To do so:
- Go to the "Campaigns" tab of your Adwords account interface
- Next, select the "Networks" sub tab.
- Scroll down to "Managed placements" and click "show details"
- In the details menu bar, select "Add placements"
- Select the Ad groups you wish to display on SailMichigan
- Add www.sailmichigan.org in the managed placement URL box
Note: Actual display of your ads on SailMichigan will be determined by your bid settings, limits and competing traffic (see the Google Adwords site for tips on enhancing your chances of success). Even though we show Adwords placements on many high-traffic pages, please note that Homepage and Footer banners are only currently available to direct site sponsors and not through Adwords.
