Do you want to increase traffic to your website and increase sales or memberships? The American Freedomist Network can help: we have experts in the marketing and marketing research field with an average of 10 years experience each who can develop a marketing program to fit any budget. Our methods focus on increasing natural traffic, increasing your word of mouth referrals, and creating “bounce back” business from existing customers.

 

We started the AFN website up around August 15, 2008 with no visitors and by September 12, 2008 we averaged 300-500 UNIQUE visitors per day and 600 to 2,500 total visitors per day. There are some 900 subscribers to our RSS feed. These visitors have come primarily from three sources: people who type in the URL (general “regulars”), people who search for information, and from links through other websites that refer to one of our articles.

 

We offer five programs for advertising with the AFN:

 

1. A classified ad in our Marketplace for $20 per month

 

2. A text ad in our Marketplace along with one text ad in two articles per month for $45 per month

 

3. A live read once every two weeks on radio show, a text ad in the Marketplace, and a text ad in four articles per month for $95 per month

 

4. A Silver Level Sponsorship Program that will reach 20,000 per month in a combination approach for $195 per month

 

5. A Gold Sponsorship, keyword optimization, power blast, and custom keyword optimized articles to build traffic directly to your website that will naturally grow for $195 per month

 

We also offer a Platinum Service which is a customized program that is designed to meet the needs of clients who want to increase their natural traffic to over 20,000 unique visitors to their site within one year with an investment of between $5,000 and $20,000 per year for a combination of marketing, articles/content development, blog and discussion group development, marketing research, and referral and bounce back business development.

 

What follows below is a description of the Silver and Gold Level sponsorship. For questions about any program call Bill Collier at 717 503 1645. All programs are payable in three month installments and are payable upon approval of all proofs and ad copy.

 

THE SILVER SPONSORSHIP

 

Reach up to 20,000 people per month for only $195 per month and LOCK IN that rate for the next five years if you are one of the first 20 to sign up for this program.

 

As a sponsor you will receive:

 

1. 5 live read ads of 30 seconds per week on our BlogTalkRadio show (typically we have 60-120 listeners per show) (The 57^th State)

 

2. A text ad within a weekly email that reaches over 500 readers along with a text ad in at least 2 articles per week that reach over 900 readers

 

3. A spot in our Marketplace Section within the American Freedomist Network website (this website gets over 15,000 visitors, 5,000-6,00 unique) per month

 

4. Special sponsors-only weekly updates with world news and intelligence from a Freedomist perspective that is brief, informative, and unique

 

As a silver sponsor in the early days you will pay $195 per month even after we have a much larger audience, you will have access to our virtual community with your own space which will include a storefront, blog, website, and other features at no additional cost. Of the $195 we will utilize $45 solely for marketing the Marketplace where you will have your own advertisement and where we will promote AFN free and paid subscriptions.

 

We expect during the first 3 months to increase our audience to at least 300 per show, our visitors to increase to over 5,000 unique visitors per day in our Market, and the number of RSS subscribers to grow to 3,000 or more.

 

This is a one year program which means that as we proceed you will see more results and gain more exposure but if you are one of the first 20 sponsors you will be locked in to the present price for the next 5 years, no matter how large the audience grows, and you will be sponsors of the national program and website, not just a regional website (we will be creating State versions and local versions of the AFN).

 

It is realistically possible that within one year you will see over 1,000 listeners or more per show, over 10,000 unique visits to our Market per day, and over 6,000 RSS subscribers.

 

Because this is advertising, the entire cost is tax deductible.

 

Is $195 per month a lot?

 

In the early days $195 per month is a fair price for what you will receive; exposure in any given month to 20,000 or so people. As we build up our audience, using proven methods (primarily by using content that is relevant and gets “natural” visitors, which is how we built up the audience for the AFN) that $195 per month, $585 per quarter, will be extremely “cheap” in relation to the exposure you will receive.

 

How can you self-fund the $195 per month?

 

We recommend that you look at your own circle of friends, associates, and etc. to find your own “sponsors’ who will receive a classified ad in our ad section for $40 per quarter: you will have 30 such “spots” which you can sell at $40 each thus enabling you to raise the money you need PLUS raise an extra $600 to help your organization, ministry, or business.

 

How many people do we need to begin?

 

I have said we can only accept 20 participants to lock in the present rate for 5 years, even as our audience increases, but we are already doing the program on our own right now. We will be doing our shows, continuing our newsletter, expanding our presence to increase visitors, and running our own advertising and marketing as we grow.

 

While we can accept UP TO 20 sponsors who lock in the present rate, once we reach a threshold of listeners, website visitors, and free subscribers we shut off the guarantee to any new sponsors who come in even if we have less than 20 sponsors.

 

For those who say “let me wait and see” the low price of $195 per month may not be available.

 

This is long term exposure, for more dramatic results we offer a program that includes articles, search engine optimization, “priming the pump”, and a special program for the AFN to quickly get your site indexed by search engines.

 

THE GOLD SPONSORSHIP

 

This program includes:

 

1. All the elements of the sponsorship program within the AFN site and “The 57^th State” BTR show

 

2. 5 key-word articles (300-500 words) per month written for your website with “snippets” on our main website

 

3. A “Power Blast” that will get your site indexed by Google within 2-3 days or less

 

4. A special program to “prime the pump” by giving you 10,000 visitors each month

(NOTE: these are NOT quality visitors, but having this many visitors, being indexed, and having some good, relevant articles will enable you to start seeing “natural” traffic that grows)

 

5. BASIC Keyword Optimization of your website that is designed to enhance the impact of the above measures

 

This program is designed to get your website at least 3,000 high quality, UNIQUE visitors per month within 60 days and over the course of a year to gain you over 10,000 unique visitors or more per month. These are going to be quality visitors who came through a natural search or who were referred by another website.

 

Gold Sponsors may resell up to 40 text ads in our Marketplace for $40 per three months.

 

This service will cost $1200 per quarter and will continue to cost this much for 5 years however I can only accept 15 clients for this service at this time.
