Our goal for this site is to help promote small business in the Colorado Springs area. In order for this site to pay for itself, we have banner ads placed in certain areas of the site. These ads help us generate operating funds and also to promote other business. Our site only accepts advertisements from other local businesses. The reason for this is that we believe too many local web sites have decided to use national services for advertising. So you might visit a site that's in Colorado Springs but you might see ads from businesses in Denver. That helps businesses in Denver, not ones in Colorado Springs. That won't be the case on this site. If you would like to advertise your business on our site or sponsor a feature, please contact us for rates and ad specifications.
