Sponsored post:
I accept sponsorship of posts that are written by me. What you get for your sponsorship is a brief paragraph (1-4 sentences) at the bottom of the post citing you as the sponsor, with text provided by you about your business. This includes a link to your website. Link is good for two years from publication and is renewable. Cost: $300.
All advertising must be relevant to my audience: Travelers to Las Vegas.
Other:
I also accept complementary hotel stays, tours, and other travel-related products and services for review (all fully disclosed to my readers). Reviews will be 100% my own opinion.
Contact me about any of these options or if you have questions about forms of advertising not mentioned above.

StumbleUpon (as SoloFriendly): 531 followers.
To My Readers:
The mission of my blog is to share my love for Las Vegas and encourage people with or without traveling companions to consider it as a vacation destination–not to serve as a get-rich-quick scheme for me. That said, I may accept sponsorships, advertising, and complementary trips or travel products to provide more material for my blog and to recoup some of my associated costs. If and when I do, I will disclose that in any blog posts I write as a result. Anything you see in the sidebar of my website may or may not be an ad. Please remember you should always do your own research before making purchases from any website, including this one.
