FISH IN SCOTLAND
Information for Advertisers


What Can I Advertise?
- We advertise game-fishing (with and without accommodation) throughout Scotland. For accommodation-only adverts we require details of fishing available locally. Although we concentrate on fishing for salmon, trout and sea-trout we will consider including advertisements for sea and coarse angling.
Special Introductory Offer - Apply now to receive your first 6 months advertising completely free, without obligation. The free trial period commences when you have approved your page and it is placed online as part of the Fish in Scotland website. Use the printable application form on this website to apply.
Existing Websites - Fish in Scotland includes direct links to advertisers' own websites. Advertisers therefore also benefit from Fish in Scotland's Internet marketing strategies, which increases traffic to their own sites.
Enquiries and Bookings - Interested parties will normally contact advertisers directly, but we will pass on any enquiries we receive at no extra charge. We regularly receive enquiries asking for advice or recommendations for fishing in particular areas of Scotland and always try to match these with appropriate advertisers.
Your Own Web Address - We can supply a unique Fish in Scotland web address - www.fishinscotland.net/yourname - linking to your Fish in Scotland page. This is ideal if you don't have your own website or want a separate web page devoted exclusively to fishing. You may use this address (URL) on your business stationery, press advertising and promotional literature to direct Internet users to your page. There is a one-off fee of £25 for a Fish in Scotland web address.
Size and Content of Advertisements - Each advertisement is placed on a page of its own, with links from our Home Page, and can contain up to 750 words and 6 pictures. Extra pictures can be added for a one-off payment of £5 each. If possible, please refer to an existing Fish in Scotland advertisement to see the type of information (fishing availability, travel details, etc) required to create your advertisement. We try to include as much information as possible to enable visitors who are unfamiliar with fishing in Scotland to form a clear picture of what is on offer. Over 40% of our visitors come from North America and our own Internet advertising is targeted equally at the overseas and home markets. If you wish to present more information additional Fish in Scotland web pages are available for a one-off fee of £25 per page.
Creating and Checking Advertisements - Because we want advertisers to be completely satisfied with the accuracy of their information we submit pages for approval before officially adding them to the Fish in Scotland website. Draft pages can either be viewed online or posted to advertisers for checking.
Updates and Changes - All advertisements can be updated at any time free of charge, normally with 24 hours.
Sending Text - Text can be sent by post or email, and we are happy to work from websites, brochures or other sources. We try to reproduce your text and information as closely as possible but may need to edit it.
Pictures - We can use photographs, slides, drawings, digital images, or pictures from brochures or websites. We suggest including images to show accommodation, fishing (river, loch, fishermen etc), and a general 'scenic' image of the area. If necessary we may be able to supply suitable fishing pictures (free of charge) from our own picture library. Remember that the Web is a visual medium and good quality pictures will really enhance your advertisement. You can add or substitute pictures at any time.
Sending PicturesPlease label pictures clearly with your name and a title or short caption, and pack them carefully to avoid damage in the post. We will return them once they have been scanned. Pictures can be sent as scanned or digital camera images on CD, floppy or Zip disk (PC format), or as email attachments.
Finally - Remember that your advertisement will be accessible round the clock 365 days a year, and will be targeted at a specialist angling audience throughout the world. Many advertisers report good responses from our service and we believe we offer excellent value in terms of the quality and depth of information we present to our many angling visitors.

If you have any queries please phone 0131 552 4973 during office hours.
