Article Publishing Options
- Sponsored Articles – Client sponsors a topic about which we write an article. The client gets an embedded ad, contact info at end of article and a quote and citation linking back to their website to maximize lead generation. Discount is available for clients sponsoring articles monthly.
- Feature Article – Feature articles are about the client, their business or a product they sell. This article is longer, has pictures and video when possible and is promoted to over 15,000 people locally. Feature articles are not typically done monthly. Instead, having one feature every few months plus sponsoring articles monthly is how to achieve optimum results.

Common Questions
- Can someone outside of Akron area be a sponsor? Yes. We can boost in any US location so we can be just as effective for out of town sponsors, although we prefer to have a majority of our sponsors local.
- How many months does a sponsor need to sponsor articles? It is a monthly sponsorship and you can cancel any time. Requires 7 day cancellation before next billing.
- Are ads and links deleted from article after the month is over? – No. As long as an advertiser stays with us, we maintain all the work done.
- Does link help SEO (Search Engine Optimization)? – Yes. By itself it does not make a big difference but it does provide a very high quality back link from an authority website. As part of a broader SEO effort, it is very helpful.
- Can sponsors boost articles themselves? – Yes, and they should. Even a year later, a sponsor can boost article in social media and generate more traffic and leads for themselves. We can do this for you for an additional fee or sponsor / marketing agency can do it themselves.
- Are agency clients safe? All active clients an agency brings to Akron Today Magazine are not contacted directly. We strictly work with your marketing agency as the go between and if your client contacts us directly we refer them back to you.
- Can an Agency write guest articles for magazine for free? – Yes. However, they cannot have links or be promotional in nature. Check with us first before writing articles to be sure the topic is something we are looking to publish.
