WakeWorld is proud to continue its market leadership on the Internet. WakeWorld had over 220,000 unique visitors viewing over 4.5 million pages during July of 2008. We've come a long way since our debut in 1996 when only 450 pages were viewed that first month! As the oldest and most frequently visited website on the Internet dedicated to wakeboarding, wakeskating and wakesufing, WakeWorld offers an unparalleled opportunity for your company to get their name and products in front of the specific demographic they're after.

Why do top manufacturers like Malibu, Tige, Correct Craft, Skier's Choice, CWB and O'Brien and leading retail shops like Performance Ski & Surf and Wakeside.com get their message out on WakeWorld? Because these are forward thinking companies with a clear vision of the future of the industry. Not only do they want to keep their advertising costs low, they want results from their advertising dollars and are not willing to throw them at traditional advertising methods just because "that's how it's always been done."

Why the Internet?
The Internet is the fastest growing advertising segment in the world. Every month millions of consumers discover the ease and convenience of researching and acquiring goods and services via the World Wide Web. Internet advertising offers advantages that can't be matched by other conventional methods. These advantages include high market segmentation, accurate statistics, low cost and the most important of all, the best guarantee that your ad is actually seen by its intended audience. Unlike a magazine, every page on which an ad appears is guaranteed to be seen.

Why WakeWorld?
There are other online publications with which you could advertise, but why not go with the one that can get you the most exposure? No other website can match the amount of traffic generated by WakeWorld. As you can see by our traffic statistics, we can provide more bang for your buck because we have more pages being viewed by more visitors.

Not only do we generate high traffic, but WakeWorld has been around since 1996, longer than any other online wakeboarding publication. We've established a presence on the Internet that you can't build overnight with an enormous collection of links pointing web surfers to WakeWorld from all over the Internet.
