Advertising for companies sponsoring couples
Base package
The base package is the main part of the sponsorship contract. The base package
is constructed in a way which can give our partners maximum exposure while
providing them with maximum value for their money. The sponsorship contract
will be signed for a minimum duration of 1 year.
You can check latest prices at SponsorAdvertising page.
The base package includes the following:
-
A dedicated page for the Sponsor
-
A list of sponsored couples (linked to each couple's profile page)
-
A link to the Sponsor's own homepage and shop (if any)
-
The Sponsor's logo is always visible on the sponsor's list on the Home page
-
Optionally, and free of extra charge, an immediate list of the greatest and
most recent successes that the sponsored couples achieved. The list is
generated automatically based on our database and is always up-to-date.
-
Optionally, and also free of extra charge, a list of the sponsored couples'
recent results. This list is also generated automatically based on our database
and once again is always up-to-date.
-
Includes a fixed-fee banner advertisement for a year (of £900 value by
itself), free of charge. We display the Sponsor's banner as many times as it is randomly drawn from our
banner pool on every page that has a non-exclusive banner place. Includes a special webpage where the sponsor can check how many times their
banner was displayed each day
-
In addition to the standard banner, Sponsor can add an option of "swappable banners". In such case Sponsor can have any number of banners of all available shapes
and we will select one of them to display. We will change displayed banner every two hours, so that visitors can see different adverts at different moments.
-
According to the Sponsor's request, it is possible to limit the display to only
certain parts of the site, e.g. to one language version.
-
Three sponsored couples. See below for the detailed explanation.
Volume discounts will also apply
Discounts, if the contract is signed for longer than 1 year
DancesportInfo continuously updates and develops its services, and we plan
several years ahead with our services. We guarantee that whenever any new
portions of sponsorship-ready services are introduced on our site that are
incorporated in our sponsorship base package offering, all the existing
sponsorship contracts will receive those services free of charge.
Sponsored couples
Sponsorship is all about helping well-performing couples. As such, sponsors
would like to affiliate themselves with their couples - and be seen whenever
and wherever the couple is visible. We understand this, and therefore the
service contains exposure closely related to the couples' results. Sponsoring
has much less commercial sense if the general public does not know about it.
Using our scheme, you will be able to inform virtually every dancer in the
world about who you sponsor. You tell us which couples you sponsor and for each
sponsored couple you get:
- An indication of the Sponsor on the couple's profile page (with the phrase
and/or graphic requested by the sponsor) (The
couple profile pages traffic make up 5-10% of all DancesportInfo's traffic)
- An indication of the Sponsor on the results pages, as shown below, with a small
icon or text phrase at each of the couple's result displays.
(The result pages make up 10-15% of all DancesportInfo's traffic)
- Similarly to the result pages, the sponsorship message or icon will be displayed on the rating top couples page, next to the couple's name
- Similar message or icon will be displayed on the event comparison page, next to the couple's name
- An indication of the Sponsor on the gallery pages, with a small icon or text
phrase by each of the couple's thumbnail pictures, as shown below. If you do
not like particular photo you can exclude it from this feature. (The gallery
pages make up around 20% of all DancesportInfo's traffic). Please note that due
to the fact that our site is continuously improved, the real look may differ
from presented.
- An indication of the Sponsor by the couple's full-size photos, with a small icon
or text phrase, as shown below (The photos make up 10-15% of all
DancesportInfo's traffic).
- Additionally you will get a Sponsor page, where your logo is displayed, your
company described in your own words, and where all your sponsored couples are
listed. This page also links directly to your own website.
-
You can check prices and experiment with different options at
calculation page
Optional additions
Some of the services we can offer thanks to our database are not needed by
everyone - and for this reason, they are not included in the base package, but
are offered as additions to the sponsorship package. You can upgrade your base
package with any and all of these.
-
Branding the sponsored couples' pictures in the gallery with the following
options:
-
Banner advertisements placed near the sponsored couples' photos.
-
Replacing the DancesportInfo copyright message on the large photos with the
Sponsor's own selected message - while preserving copy protection (e.g. the
downloaded picture is not usable for further publication)
-
Removing the DancesportInfo copyright message on the large photos and placing a
downloadable and printable "Sponsor poster" instead (e.g. instead of producing
printed posters, the picture can be custom tailored by placing company logo,
couple's digitized signature etc. on it so visitors can print them out or use
them as a wallpaper on their computers)
A sponsored dress shop
It is possible to sell the Sponsor's displayed dresses on the site. If the
sponsored dress that is on any picture on our site is for sale, both the
gallery thumbnails and the large pictures would have a "Buy this dress now"
link next to them, and the dress can be bought from the sponsor on
DancesportInfo.
This virtual shop requires maintenance:
Which photo contains which dress
Maintenance of the dresses' properties (size, material, price, etc.)
Maintenance on whether the dress is for sale or if it has already been sold
This maintenance can be done by the Sponsor on their customized, web-based
maintenance page, or can be done by DancesportInfo.
Sponsored competitions
-
If the Sponsor is also a main sponsor of a competition, upon request from the
Sponsor, the organizer (or the Sponsor) can publish their competition in our
future competitions list, where only a select number of competitions are
published.
-
The sponsored competition can have all its details published on one special
page that will automatically have the sponsor's banner displayed. The special
page will be visible until the competition's date.
-
Sponsored competitions receive a 50% discount from the normal publication rate in the future event list.
