Reach the "Destination Wedding" market with Cape Fear Wedding's online edition. The entire content of our book, plus many interactive features, live links and archives, are posted on our website, CapeFearWedding.com. Every ad is online, indexed under each of the vendor's business categories.


	Online ads listed by category. Optional banners add visibility. Click image to see details.

    Along with the ad, the vendor's complete contact information is prominently listed, with website and email addresses shown as live links. Other features of each ad listing include a "Contact this vendor now" email form, and for storefront businesses, a locator map.

   No charge for extra categories. Unlike on Yellow Pages sites, your business can be listed under multiple categories for a single flat rate. This ensures you'll be found under all relevant headings.

   Advertiser-editable listings. With a secure log-in password, advertisers can make changes to their listings at any time. Add or remove business categories, update phone numbers or email addresses, and check on the status of your contract or payment schedule.
    To see how ads are indexed online,

to "Find a Vendor" page.

   Dynamic features to help customers find you. With a single click, a potential client can send an inquiry to any advertiser. An easy-to-use "Contact" form delivers brides' messages directly to your email in-box. And there's no problem with finding your location, which can be an issue for out-of-town couples who don't know their way around. An interactive map feature points directly to your place of business -- or if you work by appointment only, shows them how to contact you.

   Consistent strong traffic. Since going online in 2001, CapeFearWedding.com has enjoyed steady and growing readership. The most recent traffic statistics show an average of more than 1,000 visits a day. This translates into viewership for advertisements, click-throughs to vendors' websites, email inquiries, and bridal registrations.
    When brides register through the website, they explicitly request information from our advertisers in specific categories. The resulting sales-leads database, available exclusively to Cape Fear Wedding advertisers, creates a powerful opportunity for direct marketing if used intelligently.
