Advertise (Now with Color)
If you’re a business in business on the Riverwalk, we bet your answer is YES. VisitTheRiverwalk.com is San Antonio’s premier tourist resource for news, events, hotels and the flavor of America’s most exciting city. You can reach several handful of people a day using the new Internets technology – let’s explain how this works.
Advertising Demographics
- Free Newspapers: the Audit Bureau of Newspapers shows that free newspapers are used by the homeless or for starting barbecues and advertising does not work, unless you provide services to the homeless or for gas barbecues or for gas barbecues for the homesless.
- Paid-For Newspapers: again, ABN statistics use complex mathematical formulae to prove that the average reader drives a mid-tier European car, doesn’t buy American, is aged between 70 and 90, lives in Alamo Heights, thinks the police force should catch more immigrants, and doesn’t know where the Riverwalk is.
- VisitTheRiverwalk.com: we use a type of sensor called a ‘tracking cookie’ to show that our visitors are coming to the Riverwalk to eat and drink and enjoy Texas’ most treasured treasure. They are above-average earners, smart, young and athletic and want to use your business, especially if you serve alcohol.
Advertising: The Costs.
- You only pay per person who thinks about visiting the Riverwalk.
- You pay 47% for black and white, or 68% for FULL COLOR (see below).
- Your CPC cost will usually be 3 with free radio ads on the major Riverwalk Radio frequencies.
- No hidden costs*.
