FAQ / Submission of Listing

Look at the right section of this page and you'll see the Ink House advertisement. That's a banner. That banner will be linked to your website. If you don't have a website and would like to have a mini webpage for your company within this website, the rate is the same for a wine submission. Follow this link: Submit a Listing.

California Wine Insider is unique in the following ways. Here's your competitive edge if you advertise here:

• search-engine-optimized (SEO) website to make it rank higher in Google and Yahoo. More users see your banner ad and web traffic is directed to your website/webpage. The unique selling point of this directory is search engine optimization (SEO).
• a comprehensive website which includes pictures, essential information, mapping, reviews, user comments, etc. It answers most questions wine buyers are already asking and therefore will keep engaging site visitors.
• an uncluttered, intuitive and professional-looking website. Even a grandmother can navigate through it.

Good point. Since my target audience are search-engine users, I don't rely on 'casual walk-ins'. The more important thing is to have every listing search-engine optimized to rank high on Google's results page using the winery's keywords. However, at some point, depending how search engine robots implement their constantly-changing algorithm, I may provide a unique domain name.

Currency is in US dollars, net of bank charges.

• $100/year for all listings in ONE region (eg. ALL winery webpages listed under Napa Valley)
• $500/year for all listings in ALL regions (eg. ALL winery webpages listed under Napa Valley, Sonoma, Mendocino, etc.)

The width can be as wide as 140 pixels. The length depends on the material worked on, up to 150 pixels. If you want a longer banner, the rate is $2/pixel in excess of 150 pixels.

1. point me to the website where I can lift materials to create the banner. If you don't have a website, email me your corporate logo, tagline, and other essential blurb, and I'll take care of the rest. Once the banner is finished, it will be posted on a test page for you to see and verify.
2. deposit payment to my bank. I will provide you banking details
3. once the bank confirms receipt of payment, your banner goes live
