Our Advertising & Marketing Services

Native Advertising

Dedicated Business Landing Page Image

Dedicated Business Landing Page

  • Your business will have its own dedicated and personalized landing page to promote your services within the related section(s) of the site.
  • Your landing page will have a direct link (optionally, with follow link attributes) to your website and/or reservation website.
  • The listing must be approved by you, or another representative of your company, before going live on Hawaii-Guide.com to ensure accuracy and consistency with your brand and marketing message.

Pricing & Details - Dedicated business listings include a $250 non-refundable set-up fee. The final listing price is determined based on the total number of listing placements and the complexity of the listing itself. A lead form, photos, videos, and other options are available for business listing pages - please ask us for details.

Because this is a premium service provided by our team, rates for this service begin at $2400/year ($200/mo) with the balance due upon listing's final approval and prior to live placement on the site. Discounted rates are available for businesses who utilize multiple services with us (i.e.; bundled with Tiles or Email Marketing).

Tile Advertisements Image

Tile Advertisements

  • Tiles are designed to natively integrate with the surrounding content, which helps to more naturally promote your related services.
  • Tiles include a main image, title heading, call to action button and may include other relevant information.
  • Tiles can send visitors directly to your website (or reservation system).
  • Your Tiles will show up in related Hawaii search queries that visitors enter when looking for services offered by your company.
  • Tiles can also display award information and other additional details to visitors searching for your services.

Pricing & Details - We offer clients the opportunity to utilized our native Tile Advertisement placements by creating targeted/relevant links from specific high-quality content pages. The billing rate that is used for each campaign is determined by the type of business and demand for that category on Hawaii-Guide; typically the rate is between $1.00-$1.50 CPC (cost per click).

For CPC-only campaigns, each client can set their maximum monthly budget (minimum budget of $250 required) based on the quoted CPC rate. No long-term commitment is required; 45-days notice to cancel any CPC-only campaign.

More often, we suggest clients consider utilizing native Tile Advertisements alongside a dedicated business landing page, where pricing is discounted and is determined as part of a complete package. Contact us for additional details.
