Got something to announce to the 500-1,000 people per day who visit Locally Grown? Read on.
While we’re primarily an issues-oriented blog, we also keep connected to the Northfield community by blogging about area people, events, organizations, and businesses.
So if you have something of interest to announce, consider these options:
Arrange for a photo opp
People who are willing to show up at one of my offices (tables at area coffeehouses) and have their photo taken can usually get me to blog their announcement for free. See examples here, here, and here and then contact me.
- Become a member of Locally Grown
You can post 2-4 announcements/month for a measly $2.50/post. You email us the content, we create the blog post for you and publish it under your name. See recent membership posts here.
- Become an advertiser on Locally Grown
A banner ad costs $4-7/week. Your ad can then link to your announcement on your website or Facebook page
If it’s a PSA (public service announcement), consider submitting it to Northfield.org, KYMN, Northfield Patch, and the Northfield News.

I’m selling my car. See my ad on Craigslist.

According to Google Analytics, Locally Grown’s traffic for the month of April, 2011:
- 12,081 Visitors
- 22,787 Visits
- 39,891 Pageviews
I was surprised when we nudged up to 10,000 unique visitors in March, as we’ve hovered between 8-9,000 for many months. So it was quite nice to see the jump to 12,000.


You may notice the above banner ads appearing on LoGro right now in lieu of the Google Adsense ads. See our Advertise on Locally Grown page for all the details. Until further notice, you can try an ad free for a month, no obligation.

After considerable weeping and gnashing of teeth about the types of ads to offer here on LG, we’ve settled on offering a combination of text and banner ads for both businesses and non-profits. (Ad auctions and advertorials have been shelved for now.) See the revised LG advertising page for details or jump right to the ad purchase page. Four one-month slots sold yesterday: Knecht’s Nurseries and Landscaping, Contented Cow, Chapati, and the Always Family Center. (Thank you, Deb, Norman and Carl!) Now, how can we improve the offering?
