| 7 reasons to advertise... |
 | |  | |  | |  | |  | |  |
1) Unique. There is simply nothing else quite like The Athens Directory around, which
serves the English-speaking community in Athens.
2) Numbers. The Athens Directory reaches a minimum of around 1500 people each
month and the actual number is growing literally every day. Remember, the Directory is
being sent out by e-mail, and we know for a fact that people are forwarding it on to their
friends, family, neighbours and colleagues.
3) Cost. Let's be honest - the cost of advertising in The Athens Directory is extremely
low. In fact, it will cost you the same and probably less than the price of a fancy cup of
coffee each month to advertise for a whole year. To be exact, it will cost you less than 4
euros per month for a text advertisement that will appear in 12 monthly issues of the
Directory.
4) Word count. With The Athens Directory, you are not limited to just a few words of
advertising or charged a high cost per word as is the case with many newspapers and
magazines. Instead, you have up to 120 words with which to describe your service and do
it justice, without having to leave out important information. That last sentence was only
55 words long, so that gives you some idea of the amount you can write. Furthermore,
your contact details such as your address, e-mail address and web site address do not
count!
5) Double the value. When you advertise in The Athens Directory you are actually
advertising in two places for the same price. As well as advertising in a Directory that is e-
mailed out to a large number of people each month like a newsletter, you are also
advertising on the Internet, through this web site. We can assure you that the number of
people visiting this site and looking at the advertisements on it is only going in one
direction - up.
6) Direct access to your web site. Your advertisement can have a link to your web site
and whenever visitors to The Athens Directory click on that link, your site will open in a
new Internet browser window. This will enable visitors to directly access all the additional
information about your service that you have on your web site. Advertising in the
Directory is therefore a great way to get people to see a new site or increase the number
of visitors to an existing one.
7) Page rank boost. Apologies for getting a bit technical now, but we expect the page
rank of this web site i.e. its placement in the results thrown up by Internet search engines,
to rise quite quickly. Therefore the web site link in your advertisement, will be placed on
pages that are very reasonably ranked by search engines such as Google. Due to the
way search engines work, by advertising on well-ranked pages you will be doing
something to improve the page ranking of your own web site.
