Comparing the Value: Pride Town Connect vs. Traditional Advertising
Unlock the Power of SEO with Pride Town Connect vs New Paper Advertising that stops after publication
Advertising on Pride Town Connect offers unparalleled SEO benefits by connecting your business to a highly engaged, niche audience. With our platform averaging over 200,000 monthly visitors, your listing is optimized for visibility across search engines, driving organic traffic directly to your website. By being part of a trusted LGBTQ+ directory, your business not only ranks higher in local searches but also gains credibility and relevance within an inclusive community. With targeted reach in up to 222 cities, Pride Town Connect ensures your brand stands out and thrives online.
When it comes to reaching a wide audience, traditional advertising like newspapers, TV, or billboards can be costly and limited in scope. Here’s how PrideTown Connect stacks up:
Newspaper Advertising
• Average Cost: $500–$1,000 per month for a single town or small regional reach.
• Reach: Limited to local circulation, often between 10,000–50,000 readers per issue.
• Format: Static print ads that depend on one-time impressions and lack the digital advantage of 24/7 discoverability.
TV Advertising
• Average Cost: $1,000–$5,000 per month for local spots (and significantly higher for prime-time slots or larger markets).
• Reach: Potentially broader but limited by time slots, regional availability, and viewer engagement.
• Format: Video spots that are fleeting and often skipped or ignored.
Pride Town Connect’s Standard Plan
• Cost: $799 per year (just $66 per month).
Reach
• Over 200,000 visitors per month to the platform
• 7 million+ page views since August 2024
• 796,000 unique visitors who actively engage with LGBTQ+-friendly businesses across 222 cities.
• Format: Digital listings that are available 24/7, highly discoverable, and feature your business across all relevant cities.
The Bottom Line
For the cost of one month of local newspaper or TV ads, your PrideTown Connect listing works year-round—offering unmatched reach and value in the LGBTQ+ community.
