Web Advertising

The club website receives hits from more than 1000 visitors every week during the season. We were one of the first clubs in the UK to have a web site and our visitor base ahs grown every year. As a service to Essex and surrounding counties we run a web based fixture exchange used by many clubs when seeking to arrange games. The main access point for this facility is via the Harlow Rugby Club web site which means that web advertising is seen by a much wider audience. Our web banners represent very good value at £25 per season. Every time a member opens any page on our web site one of our adverts is displayed. These are chosen on a random basis. As most visitors view a number of pages on each visit they get very good exposure. We can arrange at no extra charge for hot links to your company web site or email address from these banners. We can also offer permanent advertisements on our web pages. Please discuss your needs with our webmaster.

Prices:

Web banners - £25 + VAT per season

Permanent Web Ads - £200 + cost of art work+ VAT

In House Advertising

Our clubhouse is in use throughout the week for training and at the weekends for matches on both Saturdays and Sundays. It is therefore a high profile advertising location. We proved an option for you to display A4 adverts on our display boards. You may produce your own advisement and change it as often as you like. The charges are for one year and are at the same level however frequently you change it.
