CRUISEDAYGUIDE

Advertise

Sponsor a featured lot

One labeled box on one port's cruise parking page, at the top of the neutral list of every operator we cover. The list does not move for anyone.

One sponsored box per port parking page

Each port guide has a parking page that lists the port authority's garages and every off-site lot and park-and-cruise hotel we could source, with the rates each operator publishes. The featured-lot box sits at the top of that list in its own frame, with the eyebrow SPONSORED · PAID PLACEMENT, your name, one sentence you approve, and a link to your booking page.

You are buying the box. You are not buying a place in the list, a rate we did not read on your own site, a star, or the word “recommended”. If your published rate changes, the list changes when we recheck it, sponsor or not.

Where it appears

On the parking page of the port you choose, and nowhere else: not on the port guide, not on ship pages, not in email. One port, one sponsor. These are the pages:

What never changes

  • The neutral list keeps its order, its wording and its rates. The box is below it.
  • The box is labeled “Sponsored” in the same eyebrow every paid module on the site wears, and the link is marked rel="sponsored".
  • Search rankings are not for sale and not ours to sell; the box is a box on our page, not a link scheme.
  • The copy in the box is one sentence of plain claims about your lot that you approve and we can read on your own site. No superlatives, no comparison with the operators listed above it.
  • Our disclosure page names every commercial relationship, this one included.

What you get

  • The box, live on the first day of your first paid month.
  • A monthly click count for your link, from our privacy-clean analytics (GoatCounter counts the click; it stores nothing about the reader).
  • One change of copy or link per month at no charge.
  • Notice by email a month before any change to this rate card.

How to buy

Email sponsors@cruisedayguide.com with the port, your operator name, the page you want the box to link to, and the month you want to start. Expect a reply within two business days. We invoice monthly; the box goes live when the first invoice is paid.

If a port's slot is taken, we say so and offer the next free month rather than a second box. $75 a month for the first three months, then $125 a month, in US dollars.
