Winterhighland is already looking ahead and planning for next winter. Together through our Sponsorship opportunities your business and Winterhighland can Reach Higher in 2008. During winter 2006 till the Ptarmigan Tow closed on CairnGorm Mountain on 7th May our server turned out over 2 million pages; generated from calls to some 7 million PHP scripts!!

Sponsorship opportunities exist across Winterhighland for the 2008 winter season ranging from a high season week long sponsorship of the Winterhighland front page through seasonal sponsorship of major sections to a multi-year partnership to develop a network of quality high mountain web cams and automatic weather stations.

Sections available for standalone sponsorship are:

Sponsorship and advertising booked and paid for during spring 2007 for the winter 2008 season will include complimentary late spring, summer and autumn advertising / sponsorship (subject to availability). Packages booked and paid for by 30th April will receive a 33% discount on rate card prices.

A unique sponsorship opportunity; Winterhighland is seeking a major multi-year partnership to enable the creation of a unique national network of high quality high mountain web cams and integrated automatic weather stations providing unique real time views and data via a large scale WiFi/WiMax mesh all deployed in what admittedly can be one of the most hostile environments on Earth!

Our Pix from the Slopes generated 1million page impressions, updated every few days at best with manual cameras. Imagine the traffic that a network of automated constantly updating web-cams and weather stations could generate, at least 5 times that in the first phase/season alone! Off interest not just to skiers, boarders, climbers, winter walkers, ski tourers but also to meteorological enthusiasts, and even just those who love mountains, great views and the Highlands of Scotland. The potential reach is far beyond the winter mountain sports market, thus the potential rewards for the sponsor is equally huge in scope.

A mix of technologies will be used, various designs and formats of cameras, plus a network of video streaming capable day/night cameras connected to automatic Weather stations at various locations as close to 3000ft as possible. Winterhighland is uniquely placed to call on the IT, web design, radio engineering, meteorological and mountaineering skills required to bring such a challenging venture to fruition in the Scottish Mountains.

:: Advertising: Snow Report Banner Advertising

Winterhighland uniquely provides both the very latest information via the Official Reports updated in real time from the mountains, plus our own detailed independent snow editorials. These coupled with the General Situation provide comprehensive and impartial info from reporters with an intimate knowledge of Scotland's Resorts. Thus providing a superb opportunity for geographically targeting adverts, yet with the option to reach all site visitors via the General Situation page or run of site adverts.

:: Advertising/Sponsorship: Mountain Sports Forum

Snowsports, Backcountry Snowsports, Winter Climbing, Mountaineering, Mountain Biking our Forums cover them all. Last summer Winterhighland launched a dedicated Mountain Biking forum to complement the Mountain Biking section of the site. Our forums offer great value non-geographically targeted pool of banner adverts starting at £55 for the season with extra banners starting at £25.

The forums are also an ideal medium for year round promotion to mountain sports fans becoming a major focus of the site during the summer months. Sponsorship of Scotland's coolest mountain sports forum is available for £2000 for 12 months.

:: Advertising: Report Servers

New for the 2008 winter season Winterhighland will offer a great way for small mountain sports related businesses to target potential customers by geographic area across Winterhighland's various 'report servers' (the UK Ice Conditions Server, Touring and Backcountry Reports and also the Public Snow Reports ) by means of our excellent value text adverts.

To ensure maximum exposure our Report Server text adverts will be displayed in two formats:

1. As a text based banner advert on the sectional index pages.
2. Text advert at the foot of each report targeted by geographic mountain area.
