Partner With The Staffordshire Spotter

Long-term visibility in the heart of Mid Staffordshire.

The Staffordshire Spotter is a community-driven platform helping residents and visitors discover the best of our local area. Our Partner Membership is built for businesses that want a permanent, searchable presence in the town’s most trusted guides rather than one-off, "flash-in-the-pan" ads.

1. Partner Membership (£60 per year)

Our core membership ensures you are always on the map.

  • Enhanced Business Listing: A high-quality, SEO-optimized profile on our website including descriptions, contact links, and key customer info.

  • Strategic Guide Inclusion: Partners receive priority placement in our curated local guides (e.g., The Stafford Pet Shop Guide).

  • Project A1 Priority: Our partners are the first point of call when we plan our Project A1 town takeovers and "boots-on-the-ground" feature visits.

  • Verified Trust Signal: Receive the "Verified by The Staffordshire Spotter" badge for your own website and social media.

​​

2. Exclusive Partner Add-Ons

To keep our platform authentic for our 10,000+ followers, we do not offer stand-alone advertising to the general public. These high-impact options are only available to our Partners.

​

The Spotlight Feature (£40 per visit)

Need a bigger promotional push? This one-off boost is perfect for launches, events, or seasonal highlights.

  • The Visit: I’ll come to your premises to capture original, high-quality photos and video.

  • The Social Push: A dedicated, high-energy promotional post on our Facebook page.

  • The Feature Article: A permanent news article or "Deep Dive" on our website (where editorially relevant).

  • Note: Spotlights are limited each month to ensure our feed remains a community hub, not an advertising board.

​​

Local Affiliate Partnerships

We offer a performance-based option for local businesses with online booking or sales systems.

  • No Upfront Cost: We use a commission-based model (subject to approval).

  • Purely Local: We do not use Amazon or "big brand" affiliate links. We only partner with local Mid Staffordshire businesses.

  • Approval Basis: We only take on affiliate partners that we genuinely believe in and would recommend to our own friends and family.

​

How it Works (Managing Expectations)

  • Search Over Spam: We focus on being found by customers who are actively searching. Standard membership does not include guaranteed Facebook shout-outs.

  • Editorial Integrity: We love sharing genuine local news (new openings or charity milestones) for free if it’s right for the community.

  • Community First: Every penny from our partnerships is reinvested into building better guides and covering local stories.
