Advertise on the Gluten Free Chef

The Unique and Exclusive Advertising Value of the-gluten-free-chef.com Sponsorship

The-gluten-free-chef.com offers unique, well priced, custom-designed and targeted gluten free advertising opportunities, that reach your customer throughout their gluten free journey. The writers of the site are Coeliac sufferers or have lived with those that have the condition. The site is a passion for each one of them, and has also become a passion of the reader's as they discover the gems within the pages of the site.

We offer gluten free advertisers, through the format of exclusive sponsorships, the opportunity to increase your visibility within the gluten free market.

Reach visitors before they are diagnosed

There are many offline ways to advertise your gluten free products or services - placing adverts in some of the magazines, daily newspapers, or by sponsoring events and even providing inserts for the Doctor's pack. But typically there is a wealth of information in these, possibly too much, what makes yours stand out?

More and more people are turning to the Internet. A well written Web site, with plenty of content providing exactly what the visitor requires, is becoming a more and more popular way of finding information. Such sites are remembered, shared with fellow sufferers and in turn the site grows.

The-gluten-free-chef.com can offer you 24/7 access to a highly targeted community looking for gluten free products and services, 365 days a year.

Many of our visitors find the site before they even know they have the condition. They may be reluctant to get a formal diagnosis, and just wish to switch to the diet to see if it relieves their symptoms. Nothing is worse than always feeling ill and never quite knowing why or how to make things better. The site provides information to guide these people and those who have recently been diagnosed with coeliac disease.

It gives our sponsors the chance to be in there right at the beginning of the visitor's gluten free journey, and to direct them to your company and products when they don't know which way to turn.

Demographically the-gluten-free-chef.com reaches visitors world wide, offering you market penetration into new areas that you may not have explored yet. On average the site has 60,000 unique visitors a month, with the USA, Great Britain and Canada drawing the largest numbers. Another way to look at this is that we have nearly 150,000 page views a month, with many of our pages being found in the first page of Search Engine results across Google, Yahoo and Bing.

The-gluten-free-chef.com will remain a non commercial labour of love

The site began at the beginning of January 2007, after Carol Leather spent Christmas with friends who did not understand her diet. They asked where they could go for help and where they could find recipes that were safe for her to eat. Carol, and before that her mum, had catered for the diet for almost 50 years at that point and had a wealth of experience and knowledge to share with others on how to manage the gluten free diet.

The site gave Carol the means of communicating with others with the condition themselves, or who were looking after someone with it. Currently comprising over 400 pages of content the site continues to grow and offers information covering all aspects of daily life on a gluten free diet. Carol's sister-in-law was also recently diagnosed with coeliac disease, and Jenny is now also helping to support others new to the diet through the site. Even Carol's husband has given his viewpoint on marrying and living with a coeliac sufferer. A real family affair.

The-gluten-free-chef.com is not a "commercial" Web site, so sponsorship opportunities are few. We seek a small number of quality partners on a category-exclusive basis, who want to create win-win-win (you, the visitor and us) partnerships.
