Want Brides to Visit Your Website in 2012?

Is your wedding business prepared for 2012?  It's a fact - Christmas, New Years & Valentine's Day are the most popular days for engagements.  As a result, brides are more likely to browse the web to find wedding vendors and planning ideas during January and February.  To help you get the visibility that you need, BridalTweet launched its Preferred Vendor Listings program in May of 2011.  Since then, the response from both brides and wedding professionals has been phenomenal.  Feel free to check out an example of one of our Preferred Vendor Listings. You'll notice that these premium listings include an area for customer reviews, images of your work, and links to your website, blogs, Facebook page, etc.  Wondering if a Preferred Vendor Listing is right for your business?  Watch this 3 minute video to learn 5 reasons why BridalTweet advertising is very different from many of the other wedding websites:

Top 5 Reasons Why Advertising at BridalTweet is a Truly Unique Opportunity:

1. We make sure that brides see your listing. We make sure of this by running an ad campaign on Facebook to bring brides to this special section of our website. We are also ranked very highly on Google. So, you'll benefit from over 20,000 people who reach our site each month.
2. This is a very exclusive opportunity. Since we only accept a few vendors (less than 25) within each category and region, we ensure that each of our Preferred Vendors is in the spotlight.
3. You can increase your own Google rankings. Linking from BridalTweet to your website will naturally help your website's search engine ranking.
4. We will promote your business on Twitter ($99 value). With over 27,000 followers on Twitter, BridalTweet has become the #1 most influential brand on Twitter in the wedding industry – even more influential than The Knot. By becoming a Preferred Vendor, we'll tweet about your business two times throughout the year.
5. Brides can contact you directly. We'll showcase your phone number, email, website, blog, Facebook or Twitter addresses.
   

Plus, you'll enjoy these bonuses:

1. BridalTweet visitors are affluent, educated, and female. 56% of visitors earn a household income of over $60,000 and 32% earn over $100,000. Our visitors are 3x's more likely to visit luxury websites – indicating that they want luxury items and services. 66% of visitors have a college and/or graduate degree. 66% of visitors are female. 72% are between the ages of 18-49 and 88% do not have children.
