Southern Maryland Online sponsorship is a conspicuous and
inexpensive way to reach those in the market for a new home while showing
support for the community. We are an online tourism, relocation, and general
community guide, serving Charles, Calvert, and St. Mary's Counties in
Maryland since April 1996.
In August of 2009 we served
8,3147,097 pages of information about the Southern Maryland region to
310,965 unique visitors
from all over the world - people who were specifically looking for
information about the area.
Our real estate section has consistently remained in the top 5 of sections
visited and many area realtors have reported outstanding success using
Southern Maryland Online. A large number of our readers are relocating
military personnel, civil service, or defense contractors - they are high
wage earners looking for a place to call home!
Your sponsorship package includes the following:
- A listing and link to your website in all appropriate
real estate and
marketplace categories. Your listing
will consist of your agency name, contact information and a descriptive
paragraph. A logo can be included as well at no extra charge.
- Up to three graphic banners that rotate through our information pages
and link back to your website. You will receive a special username and
password so that you can check your banner stats at any time. We
will create one banner for you as part of the package if requested.
Additional banners can be created for an additional fee or you may provide
them.
- A rotating article on the front page,
showing you as a Featured Sponsor.
- Priority listing, before any other type listings or affiliates.
- Recognition as a new sponsor on our front page and in our newsletter,
which goes out to several thousand subscribers each month.

visitors Southern Maryland Online received that month, our most popular
sections, most high-traffic days, and pertinent demographic information.
