Welcome to the Palate Presss Advertising Network. With our network you can advertise your products at PALATE PRESS: The online wine magazine, and across our network of wine and food affiliates, including some of the top wine sites in the world, including 1 Wine Dude, Good Grape, CheapWineRatings.com, and more.

With a single advertising purchase, and a single bill, your product or service can be seen on a network providing more than two million page views every month to more than 800,000 unique visitors. The network is based in the United States, but its has affiliates around the world, including in Canada, Germany, Sweden, and New Zealand.

On the Palate Press Ad Network, we can work with you to meet your needs. We can target advertising geographically, allowing to have your ads seen in a specific country, state, metro area, or even defined area codes or zip codes, and you will only pay for those viewers.

We offer three industry standard ad sizes, 300×250, 160×600, and 728×90. We are also introducing another standards size, 468×69, on several pages, and a full background ad on Palate Press: The online wine magazine. Finally, we run custom email, newsletter, and advertorial campaigns through many of our websites. Inquire to our Sales Manager, David Jackson, for specific custom campaigns.

FRIEND, FAN, AND FOLLOW CAMPAIGNS

In today’s social media world, our clients are often looking for ways to make contact with potential customers, focusing on building relationships, rather than immediate sales. For that reason, we have created our “Friend, Fan, and Follow” campaigns. In these, we take advantage of the network’s on-line presence, with more than 130,000 Twitter Followers and 80,000 Facebook Fans and Friends. Different network members will personally recommend that their social media contacts join your Facebook Fan Page, or friend you, or follow you on Twitter, or all three. That allows you to instantly build a social media following. Once you have done so, it is a simple task to keep your social media network updated on everything happening, from sales, to contests, or even just updates about what is happening in the vineyard.

CPM pricing

• Facebook Friend ………………………….. $10.00/1,000
• Facebook Fan       ………………………….. $13.00/1,000
• Twitter Follow      ………………………….. $15.00/1,000

These campaigns work best when coordinated with prize giveaways and contests. Contact our sales team at sales@palatepress.info to discuss your custom Friend, Fan, and Follow campaign.
