Advertise With Us

Gettysburg Wire is a website run by local residents that have a love for Adams County and all the culture and history provided here outside of the Great Battle. We provide advertising opportunities to all local businesses through online ads below. We also have an online business directory that we pick one business per month to promote weekly on our social media accounts.

Let me be clear though..

As I suspect there will be those that have concerns about us accepting money for sponsoring things throughout this project. We’re going to keep doing what we do, whether we have sponsors or not. Sponsors will not get to influence the content that we post, they can simply take advantage of it. We offer sponsorship opportunities because it does take a lot of our time to maintain Gettysburg Wire, and we do so out of sheer love for living here. However, sponsorship support from local businesses to offset the time spent, while it would be nice to have compensation for our time, it will not make or break Gettysburg Wire.

What do you get for Advertising?

You can either get prime real estate on our website that you can edit and manage at any time, or you can have us include your business name and link in any of our social media posts as a sponsor. Any blog posts or Facebook posts we do about our website will redirect traffic to our website to give you ample opportunity for traffic as well. We also have thousands of local residents that follow us on Social Media, and you have the option below to purchase an ad for us to send out to all of our followers on social media or to sponsor all of our posts for that month.

You will also be sent weekly stats that show day-to-day traffic, clicks, impressions, click-through-rate, and even cost per click for ads purchased on the site. You can access these stats any time through our system that will email you, and we are happy to provide monthly social media analytics for any social media posts you sponsor.

But what if I don’t own a business?

Hey, I understand. But if you still want to support us, you can still purchase a sponsorship, and we will thank you personally. Alternatively, you can purchase a sponsorship and tell us about a charity or charitable event or organization you want us to post about on social media to increase their exposure instead. So long as it’s local and relevant to residents in Adams County, we’re happy to do it.
