Have you ever thought of how many non-profit organizations exist in your circulation area? Chances are, there are more than you can count. From the local historical society to the Chamber to the equestrian program for disabled children to the animal shelter--even your local Little League and other community sports leagues; they all have one thing in common. They could benefit from a presence on the web and they all have a built-in following. So what does that have to do with you, Ms. Harried Editor? Follow me on this train of thought for a moment.
I firmly believe (and thankfully the research supports me) that local newspapers are the hub of their community in terms of providing information, and that is even more true online. Community newspapers are the predominant online player in their own backyards.
We�ve firmly established that you are the big dog online in your area. So it stands to reason that those non-profit and community organizations could benefit by getting in front of your readers. (Oh, did I mention the third thing that they all have in common? Little or no advertising budget!)
MyWebPal offers Free Community Websites as one of the many tools at our clients' disposal. Our intention has always been that they should be offered to non-profit organizations within your community at no charge. Many publishers have found these organizations to be more than willing to promote their free site, which simply means more traffic and more readers for your online version� often tapping into completely new readers.
