Advertise on HEREAtlanta
Put your business in front of people who live, work and spend money in Atlanta. HEREAtlanta is city-first local news, and your sponsorship runs inside the section your customers are already reading: business sponsors on business stories, sports sponsors on sports stories.
Why local placement on HEREAtlanta works
Big platforms sell you a slice of everyone. HEREAtlanta sells you Atlanta. Every hub and section on this site is built around this city, so the people reading it are the people who can actually walk through your door, book your service or call your office.
City-first audience
Readers come to HEREAtlanta for Atlanta news, sports, schools, events and business. That is the audience a local business needs, without paying to reach people three states away.
Section-targeted sponsorships
Your ad shows where it fits. A business sponsor appears on business stories and the Business hub, a sports sponsor on sports stories and game coverage. HEREAtlanta runs 15 local section hubs today.
Spotlight articles, clearly labeled
A Spotlight is a full article about your business, written in local news style and published permanently on HEREAtlanta.com. Every one carries a PAID SPONSOR label and an Editor’s Disclosure, so readers trust it.
Your own partner page
Sponsors get a partner page on HEREAtlanta with your logo, description and links. Every Spotlight article and sponsor card links back to it, so readers can find you again.
Homepage and section sponsorships
Own the presenting position on a section, or get in front of the whole city on the HEREAtlanta homepage. One sponsor per section, so a competitor can’t share your spot.
Found in AI search
Spotlights and partner pages are built with clean headings, metadata and schema markup, so Google, ChatGPT and Perplexity can read and cite them. The network’s search and AI visibility work is handled by its development partner, Real Internet Sales.
We know Atlanta
HEREAtlanta is the local news site for Atlanta and Fulton County, part of the Metro Atlanta region. Readers come to it for what is happening in their own part of town, from Midtown, Buckhead, Old Fourth Ward and East Atlanta Village to the neighborhoods around them. They work at places like Delta Air Lines, The Home Depot, Piedmont Healthcare and Northside Hospital, and they want to know which local businesses to call when they need something done. They spend weekends at Piedmont Park, Grant Park and Chastain Park and follow Georgia Institute of Technology and Georgia State University. Many are members of, or do business with, the Metro Atlanta Chamber. When your business shows up on HEREAtlanta, it shows up next to the stories those neighbors are already reading.
