Advertising Opportunities
on WorldNetDaily
WorldNetDaily.com is an uncommon news site, a beacon standing out among a crowd of online news providers.
WND offers exclusive content, on target commentary and growing readership, making it a natural choice for those advertising on the Internet. With more than 2 million unique page views per day -- more than the Los Angeles Times, Associated Press and many other giant corporate media sites -- WorldNetDaily gets solid results for its advertisers. The typical readers of WorldNetDaily are well-educated, engaged in issues affecting society and eager to patronize companies that support their news source.
Jim Whelan (r) with WorldNetDaily founder Joseph Farah.
Our readers are extraordinarily loyal and regularly spend more than an hour on the site -- making it the No. 1 "stickiest" news site on the Internet for the last eight years. In fact, it is among the stickiest websites of any kind.
WorldNetDaily is habit-forming. Repeat visits reinforce an effective advertising message. The average reader comes back to the site repeatedly to follow the latest developments on issues previously reported. A quality writing staff and an enviable list of renowned columnists make WorldNetDaily a must-visit for readers every day.
We invite you to share in that repeat readership by placing an order for one of the advertising plans outlined in this media kit. Available for purchase: impressions, click-throughs or a special sponsorship.
Site Content
While the traditional media offer predictable, vanilla news stories, WorldNetDaily presents exclusive news content that is unique, refreshing and provocative.
WND covers international and national stories unavailable in the old mainstream media -- stories of government corruption, threats to personal liberty and conflicts abroad. The reporters and editors of WorldNetDaily are not afraid to pursue issues that typical news people routinely avoid -- including the coverage of international hotspots in dangerous, unstable developing countries. Because WorldNetDaily regularly updates critical stories, its loyal readers come back day after day. As readers review updated stories and read new content, a high level of "stickiness" results. This extended "dwell time" by readers provides a wonderful opportunity for advertisers.
"Stickiness" adds to the percentage of results for advertising placed within the pages of WorldNetDaily. The longer a reader stays, the more advertisements he or she will see. In the summer of 1999, WorldNetDaily was found to be the "stickiest" news site on the internet by PC Data Online, outperforming ESPN, MSNBC and other mega-corporate sites.
WorldNetDaily has gathered a distinguished team of columnists featured each day in the Commentary section. With relevant commentary and timely coverage of legislation and other government action, the WND Commentary section has become very popular with our readers. See our Commentary section for a list of contributors and their credentials.
In the months ahead, WorldNetDaily will be introducing many new featues to make WND even more versatile in terms of coverage.
"A free press for a free people."

Sponsorship
As the sponsor of a specific column or feature in WorldNetDaily, your company will enjoy unique status among our advertisers. A sponsorship advertisement can gain unlimited exposure and response from our readers.
What are Sponsorships?
A sponsorship consists of a non-animated image that represents an advertiser's product or service. Unlike a banner ad, sponsorships take the simple form of an identifiable logo or message. Sponsorships have the advantage of moderate cost with high exposure rates. Like a "Pepsi" or "Goodyear" decal on the side of a hot rod or blimp, different sizes and shapes can be placed in several different places within our site.
What is the advantage of a sponsorship over a banner ad?
A sponsorship costs less. Banner ads are larger, more complex, and may have animation. They may appear in a variety of different locations with variable frequency. Sponsorship images, on the other hand, can be designed to fit in just about any location, are constant, and can be altered periodically to display different messages.
What's the deal?
A long-term commitment is required for a sponsorship. Once you're on board, readers will identify your company as a major participant in supporting their favorite news source.
