Hi! This is Linda. I work with Eric behind the scenes at Board Game Beat and handle our advertising, communications, and publisher outreach.

With Gen Con wrapped and fall release and crowdfunding schedules coming into focus, I wanted to share a quick Board Game Beat update.

Over just the past few weeks, readership has grown from around 40,000 to more than 54,000 unique visitors over a rolling 30-day period. The site now has more than 2,100 members, including 320 paid members, and has published more than 210 posts since launching in January.

I've also updated our advertising page so that current audience figures, starting rates, placement descriptions, specifications, and booking information are all in one place.

View rates and current availability: https://www.wericmartin.com/advertise/

Weekly placements start at just $178.75. No creative yet? You can reserve a date while the lower advance-booking rate applies and upload the finished creative later...so you don't need to have an ad ready before booking.

If you have a fall release, crowdfunding campaign, preorder, or holiday promotion coming up, I'd be glad to help you choose the timing and placement that make the most sense. You can also view current availability and book directly through the calendar.

Thanks so much!

Linda
