Follow on Google News | Golf Charity: New Website Helps Golf Charity Event Organizers Promote Their Tournaments For Freewww.GolfCharity.net becomes first free nationwide database of golf charity events.
By: The Golf Charity Network GolfCharity.net is totally free for anyone, whether you are a player or an organizer posting an event. “We understood very early on that in order for us to succeed, we really needed the site to be sponsor-supported. Charities are already spending far too much of their budget on advertising and promotion, so GolfCharity.com doesn't charge charities or organizers anything to post their event.” GolfCharity.net provides marketing and promotional services for charity events. While the value of these types of services has traditionally been difficult to know, online marketing services are very precisely tracked. Furthermore, there has been a distinct increase in online traffic for charity golf events, as more and more people are getting connected to the internet at home, the office and their cell phones. “We’ve seen an increase in requests for keywords related to Charity Golf Events each month as we head into summer. We also have an aggressive marketing strategy that I think will help us promote both the site and the events as well. We’ll be using Twitter and other social networks, including some of those that are dedicated to golf. We really want to be in a position to help as many organizers as we can get the players they need for a successful event.” GolfCharity.net is totally free for all users of the site whether you are a player or an organizer posting an event. “We understood very early on that in order for us to succeed, we really needed the site to be sponsor supported. Charity golf tournaments aren’t in any position to pay for advertising and I am of the thinking that they shouldn’t have to. But that said, we needed to be sure that the advertising wasn’t going to get out of hand which is why we re only accepting six sponsors in total for the site. We really want this to be about the great work that the organizers are doing and we’d like our sponsors to be in a position to help them achieve their goals.” With any website, the only question that really matters really is traffic. “We’ “It can be easily understood if play is down what with the economy performing the way it is, but I think that what many players don’t understand is that they do receive a larger benefit for playing in some Charity Tournaments than just a round of golf and a lunch. In many cases, the entire day is tax deductible! This may seem to be a selfish reason to play in a tournament but I’m of the mind that if more players participate because of this then everyone wins. “ “We’ve also made a very important decision that I think will really separate us from the rest of the pack.” Andrew went on to say, “beginning June 1st we will be donating 10% of all of our advertising revenue to a charity event that is listed on our site. I don’t know how much that will be yet, that’s for our advertisers to decide, but I hope that in the future we can really become a force for these charities.” To submit an event or to find out more about http://www.golfcharity.net please visit their website, follow them on Twitter at www.twitter.com/ Want to be on of the 6 sponsors of The Golf Charity Network?
