One of the most successful websites in the football league, www.pne.com is the ideal place to boost the presence of your brand and reach out to the thousands of supporters who use our primary form of communication every month.

Our official website carries all North End news first, whether it be the announcement of a new signing, details of new promotions or minute by minute match reports of Championship matches.

The site attracted almost 900,000 unique visitors over the course of last season - that is the number of people visiting and using the site individually. On average, over 65,000 web users came to pne.com every month with May 2009 the high point of last season with over 90,000 choosing pne.com.

And when people come to the site they stay here as well with the club recording almost 7 million page views between May 2008 and May of this year. Page views record each time any user clicks on a story, link or download on the site, on average over half a million users clicked each month for last season with last August seeing the highest number of page impressions - 925,748.

On top of these impressive figures, the site has over 45,000 registrants meaning that you can reach that number of people via our weekly newsletter through sponsorship.

There are a few ways to take advantage of these eye-catching statistics and ensure that your company increases its reach alongside established nationwide FTSE100 companies like BSkyB.

Website Sponsorship

For £1,000 per month your logo can be at the top of our website, next to the official pne.com title. We guarantee you 25% of the space that is allocated for that area and as you can see from another club who have their site sponsored it is in a very attention-grabbing area.

Research shows that when web users visit pages their eyes are always drawn to the top of the page and then they work their way down so your company logo would be the first thing they notice when they click on pne.com.


Such an opportunity is a highly unique one for your business so contact Zoe or Emma in our commercial team on 01772 693311/04 or email commercial@pne.com to find out how you can be our official website partner.

Newsletter Sponsorship

Our story-packed newsletter is sent to tens of thousands of fans email inboxes every week and by sponsoring your business will ensure that its branding is at the forefront of the newsletter.

Sitting at the top of the newsletter, the logo would be extremely prominent on the right side at the top, where an address would normally be on a letter. Every week during the season we include exclusive content, whether it be an interview or a story unique to the newsletter, thus enhancing its value to the reader.

For £500 per month you business can similarly enhance its value, contact Zoe or Emma in our commercial team on 01772 693311/04 or email commercial@pne.com to find out more

Skyscraper Sponsorship

The skyscraper image is situated on the right hand side of the website, to the side of stories and indexes - it doesn't feature on the homepage but web research shows that most of our visitors do 'click through' and when the reader finishes reading, their eye is drawn to the right of the page.

Major companies such as HSBC also advertise in this space so your company would be sharing advertising space with prestigious companies and at the same time associating itself with one of the most well-known brands in the north west, Preston North End.

These adverts are available for £400 per month and will be shown twenty per cent of the time, so taking the above stats into account, adverts could be viewed over 100,000 times by our readers.

These are available for £400 per month and can be booked and arranged by contacting Zoe or Emma in our commercial team on 01772 693311/04 or email commercial@pne.com
