    Targeted Guides sites and the Luna Network:
    About Guide sites and the Luna Network enhance your ability to reach any targeted audience with unparalleled depth of content. The Luna Network is a select group of relevant sites that relate to specific About Guide sites. About Guides identify a handful of sites that are relevant to their specific subjects. When you place advertising on a Guide site, you also automatically reach these additional targeted, high-quality sites.

Our expert sales representatives can put together a strategic program that meets your campaign objectives.


E-mail provides another extremely effective marketing vehicle for you to reach specific target audiences - we offer a broad range of promotional tools and have access to over nine million opt-in e-mail subscriptions that fall under the About umbrella. Plus, our patent-pending technology enables our partners to reach specific audiences based on interests, demographics, or past behavior. The About e-mail marketing services suite includes:

    Advertorial Publications:
    Our flagship e-mail BargainDog product, along with our other advertorial e-mail newsletters, give you the ability to seamlessly integrate your message into our e-mail content. Consequently, these publications generate extremely qualified traffic resulting in significant sales and registrations.

    Newsletter Advertisements:
    With over 700 niche and general interest content e-mail newsletters under the About umbrella, you can target your media purchases to consumers who meet your specific interest profile.

    List Rentals:
    Thousands of users have opted-in to receive offers in subject categories that interest them, creating an audience receptive to e-mails solely devoted to your message. We're different because our e-mails are not spam, but are 100% double-opt-in permission marketing.

    Lead Generation:
    For those advertisers want to build an in-house customer list, we offer opt-in opportunities during registration processes on sites in the About family.


Content specials are developed on a seasonal and holiday basis, creating topic-specific environments combining advertising tools, products and services with related Guide content. Content specials are promoted heavily both on About and other targeted sites.
