ADVERTISING OPPORTUNITIES

Maximize Your Advertising Dollars... Place your ad where it reaches ONLY shoppers

Why waste you ad views (impressions) on visitors other than shoppers?

When you advertise on World Travel Shop you are reaching only actual shoppers. We only provide shopping information or content supportive to our visitor's shopping trips. We augment the shopping content with useful information for the shopper such as places to eat, drink and run errands, i.e. shoe repair and dry cleaners. We also post information about hotels and city attractions for those shoppers who are also travelers.

Inexpensive + Immediate

We can instantly put your business or service in front of the eyeballs of shoppers and introduce them to you at a small percentage of the cost for local publications, radio, cable or national media. And we can do that right away.

If you are a new business looking to increase your visibility to shoppers, this is a great way to make that introduction. Why wait for word of mouth to work or spend a fortune on print advertising or yellow pages ads.

No contracts to sign. Stay flexible - discontinue your advertising campaign when it meets your needs.

Seasonal Ad Campains? If you just want to advertise for a limited period or just during holidays, you can stop and start your campaign easily and customize the time in which you reach out to new shoppers.

You Can Decide your Monthly Budget - You decide what your advertising budget is and that is also flexible - you make changes in the amount of your advertising campaign at any time.

WORLD TRAVEL SHOP OVERVIEW

World Travel Shop is a content based Web site. The focus is unique shopping in travel destinations. This does not mean the site is used only by travelers as locals may be the primary visitor. The traffic on World Travel Shop is comprised of about 60% to 40% - locals to visitors.

San Francisco, Los Angeles and Seattle are currently connected. New York and Las Vegas data has been collected and will be added shortly. As the site evolves, there will be 85 global cities connected with robust shopping information.

FOR MERCHANTS
We provide the information on the businesses on our site free to the merchants. The better this information is in content, i.e. shopping hours, email addresses and description and photos the better it is for our visitors/shoppers to World Travel Shop.

UPDATES & ACCURACY
While we at times struggle to keep information updated on the site - shops & eateries are always in flux - it is our goal to be as close to accurate as we can possibly be. We are continuing to add resources to help us with the updating and accuracy and as a merchant you can help us in two ways.

• Remember to let us know when you hours change or there are inaccuracies for your business.
• Let us know what is going on in your district - when a new business arrives or an old one closes.

SUGGESTIONS
If you have some suggestions that you think would make the site more useful for shoppers, let us know. We are flexible and strive to improve whenever we can.

INTRODUCE MORE SHOPPERS TO YOUR BUSINESS
While your page is very helpful to shoppers, if they don't know you exist they may not find you. To become more visible to more shoppers (3,000 shoppers a DAY on the site) we have some very cost effective and creative advertising opportunities that provide great results - increasing sales and traffic to your store or Web site.
