Advertise
That we're cheap and easy is obviously no commentary whatsoever on our readers or writers. That's just something Sundae and Jenny value about ourselves. What's the alternative? Hard and expensive? Sounds daunting. Jenny just wrote that to see if anybody is reading this.
Our documented goals in creating the site were to make each other LOL every day and to attract the attention of Anthony Lane and Nick Hornby. Since the site went online on January 20, 2012, we've had lots of positive feedback, but we haven't heard from our writer idols yet.
In the meantime, we provide a great platform for Ocracoke businesses to advertise.
In 2017, over 120,000 unique visitors checked out the Ocracoke Current’s website. 65% of our readers are repeat customers who check the Current regularly.
Since our first year in 2012, we’ve had over 3.5 million page views!
In addition to the website, we keep readers up-to-date through Facebook and Twitter. Readers can subscribe to our RSS feed, which sends them an email every time we post a new story.
Ocracoke Current website ads:
$70/month (minimum 3 months) or $600/year.
