We at Elmore Autauga News are excited to announce that our first ever Shop Local Directory has officially gone live on our website.
The directory is an inexpensive alternative to traditional advertising. Now, businesses will have another option to reach potential customers and build an organic digital reach.
In 2020, analytics showed that EAN had over 5 million views on our website. Couple that with over 36 K followers on Facebook, driving more viewership to the website, we project to exceed that number at the end of 2021.
With an ever-growing reader base, we decided that a directory would be built in to provide another component to our website.
But just as we grow, we want to do the same with you. Our goal is to provide community news to the river region in a timely and accurate manner, but we also want to operate as a catalyst for change and growth in the area.
Being a small business ourselves, EAN understands the importance of just what “shop local” truly means. Allow us to extend a hand and help you achieve the goals you have set for your business.
“Our objective is to grow small businesses and we felt a need to create another component of our website that’s different from the traditional method of advertising. This opens an opportunity that’s affordable for all small businesses,” said Carla Wilson, Co-Owner at EA News.
For more information about our directory, please email us at, [email protected] or call our office (334)-285-1299.
We’re excited about the future of Elmore and Autauga Counties, and you should be too.
