What is All Martha's Vineyard: The Martha's Vineyard Information Center?
All Martha's Vineyard: The Martha's Vineyard Information Center was created as a centralized directory for Martha's Vineyard businesses with an Internet presence. Everyone is welcome to have a link at All Martha's Vineyard.
Why Link or Advertise at All Martha's Vineyard?
If the success of our sister sites, All Cape Cod and All Nantucket are any indication, All Martha's Vineyard: The Martha's Vineyard Information Center will quickly become the single most used resource by vacationers coming to Martha's Vineyard, and by members of the local community. If your
web site would be of interest to this demographic group, you owe it to yourself to leverage your web site by linking it at allvineyard.com.
In summer, our sister site, All Cape Cod, is visited by an average of 750
people per day (and over 400 people a day in winter!), visiting 7 pages within
the site per visit, and making over 21,000 visits to other web sites per week.
Unlike other sites which include visits to sites hosted at their domain
as part of their access information, sites hosted at allvineyard.com are not included in these figures. And, unlike other websites, we count people, not "hits". (Hits are generally inflated by at least the number of pages and often the images visited within a site, and tend to give a skewed picture of activity at a web site.)
Our banner advertisement program will enhance your presence for a minimal fee.
You may submit your business or personal links via our
InterAct page, or you may
choose to host your site here at All Martha's Vineyard. Sites hosted at All
Martha's Vineyard are indexed within our search engine, giving those sites
greater visibility to the sites, and are eligible for a discounted
rate on banner advertisements and links.

Your site is not "framed" by ours

Better Announcement Services
Many hosting services don't provide announcement services as part of their package, and those that do often use a service such as AAA promotions or WebPromote. We personally announce your site to the Internet community, both to search engines and indices, but also to appropriate newsgroups and most importantly to sites looking to link with sites like yours. |
Your site is given the best exposure |

Enhanced Listing at the Martha's Vineyard Information Center
