AVweb Introduces Video Marketplace Ads

AVweb remains the premier internet news source since 1995, with over 255,000 pilots, aircraft owners, and aviation professionals subscribed to our newsletters and visiting AVweb.com monthly. It is the most comprehensive free aviation site, with news, features, columns, podcasts, a fuel finder, free classifieds, a free calendar of events, reader-submitted photos, video, the best FBOs, and more.

Now AVweb will produce custom 3- to 4-minute videos to introduce (or demonstrate) a product of your choice, for only $2,500.

Video Exposure

The video will be featured for one week in the AVwebFlash newsletter and on the AVweb.com home page. (See screenshots at right.) It will remain available on AVweb's Video Marketplace page for six months, with an option to extend the agreement in six-month intervals. You may also embed it on your web site, send the link to prospective customers, or promote the video in your own e-newsletter.

The $2,500 fee includes storyboarding, filming/demonstrating the product (at our location), editing (possibly cutting in video that you provide), and posting the video to YouTube. (Any travel costs would be additional.)

Additional exposure is available in six-month increments at $1,800 each.

[Videos may also run on Kitplanes.com (if the content is relevant) for $1,000 per six-month period.]

Some of the Benefits

AVWeb is able to offer relevant, targeted delivery to potential buyers, including industry leaders who receive our AVwebBiz newsletter and owner-pilots who receive our AVwebFlash newsletter. All are high-income, computer-savvy aviation pilots and aircraft owners. (89% of our readers are pilots, and 91% own, lease, or operate at least one aircraft, according to an April 2007 reader survey.)

AVweb also delivers a steady stream of new readers globally via our YouTube Channel and iTunes podcasts. AVweb content consistently appears at the top of the major search engines' results pages. We had 33,000 foreign subscribers at the end of 2008; with aggressive event and media partnerships outside the U.S. in 2009, that should double within 12 months to 66,000 international subscribers.

We invite you to compare our numbers to other electronic aviation media using independent sources such as Compete.com and YouTube. AVweb has a proven history of delivering strong residual views. (Our Cessna LSA and Cirrus Jet videos remain at the top of search engines after more than a year since they were produced.)
