Advertiser Perks!
New Product Showcases and Press Releases
In addition to banner ad placements, all advertisers also receive the opportunity to have new products and press releases showcased on ArmoryBlog.com. Just send over all new product info or company news and we’ll include it in an upcoming blog post. Advertisers can have as many new product releases and company news articles published as they like during their duration as an ArmoryBlog advertiser.
Here at ArmoryBlog we receive many requests to review new products from various manufacturers. Because we thoroughly and honestly review all products that we agree to review, it does take time for us to publish our reviews. Just a note, we do not accept paid reviews as we want to offer our readers an honest real-world review of new products on the market. However, as an advertiser we give your products submitted for review more preference in when they’ll be published.
Guest Posting
Advertisers also have the opportunity to guest post here on ArmoryBlog! We give our sponsors the chance to talk to our readers directly. Feel free to blog about upcoming products, firearms-related technology, gun industry trends, company history etc. ArmoryBlog advertisers are allowed one guest post per month. We allow up to two backlinks to your site, this is a great way to increase your SEO rankings!
Social Networking
As an ArmoryBlog advertiser we will also mention your company’s products on our Facebook, Twitter and Google+ (coming soon!) pages. We will also share your company’s social networking pages as well and any other news you may want to promote to our followers.
