Become an underwriter

Underwriters are companies or individuals that support elliott.org’s mission to bring quality, commercial-free, consumer-focused journalism to the Web.

You can support this site now using a major credit card through PayPal or Google Checkout. (It’s an easy and safe transaction.) Or, if you’re interested in the benefits of becoming a corporate underwriter, here’s more information on sponsoring this site and newsletter.

Individual donors are recognized at the following levels:

Associate — $74 and under
Benefactor — $75 to $149
Patron — over $150

Corporate underwriters are more than advertisers — they’re partners with a common goal to make the travel industry a better place.

What do I get?

Underwriting slots are available in one-month, three-month, six-month and one-year increments, with discounts for long-term commitments.

Here’s what you get per month:

1. Four underwriting notices in each issue of Elliott’s E-Mail, a weekly newsletter broadcast to more than 60,000 savvy consumers. The notices are brief and contain a link to your product and service. For example: “Elliott’s E-Mail is a free, non-commercial weekly travel newsletter with insider travel tips, news and information plus resources and irreverent insights. Subscribe to it now.”

2. The same notice is rotated on elliott.org, reaching well over 100,000 unique visitors every month.

3. A personal introduction as a new underwriter on Elliott’s E-Mail, thanking your company for its support and encouraging readers to visit your Web site.

4. A notice on elliott.org.

5. A simple guarantee. You’ll generate as much traffic from the notice as you expect — or I’ll keep running your notice until you do.
