Mission Statement:

The purpose of siouxcounty.com is to provide Sioux County residents with a useful on-line community tool, and to promote positive as well as functional content for local Internet users.


How it Works:

Businesses and other organizations choose to advertise on the site, or sections of the site. The organization’s logo will be displayed (round-robin) easily visible on each page. The logo is clickable to a specified web page, or an optional single informative web page advertisement about the organization, hosted on the siouxcounty.com web site.

If you have special online needs, we will try to accomidated. For instance, if you don't have or want your own web site, but you do want a web page with constantly changing information, we can provide that! We call it our ePamphlet. Contact us so we can discuss your needs. No matter how large or small your needs, you'll find an economical price range on siouxcounty.com, at a cost far lower than you'll pay for other forms of media.


Market Area:

Why is this a good investment? Because the Internet is everywhere. For example, it is more accessible to college and high school students than newspapers, radio or television. That’s thousands of viewers alone! There are two colleges in Sioux County, and at both, every student, faculty and staff member has daily Internet access—that’s over 3,000 residents getting their news and information on-line. What’s better is that many people have Internet access at work, and even more at home. The Internet has become a very valuable resource for people in Sioux County. In fact, it is predicted that in a few years, the Internet will be the main source of information for people, surpassing magazines, newspapers, radio and television. Take advantage of this lucrative market. If you’re not, your competition may be.

Is it For You?

What if you already have your website? What a perfect complement! Just building a website doesn't mean people will automatically look at it. You have to market it, just like your traditional business. Sound like too much work and expense? Then let us do the advertising for you, and provide users an extremely easy way to access your website--by just clicking on your logo! We provide users with fresh content to keep them coming back daily. When they do, they constantly see your logo. That makes it easy for them to click simply click and they are looking around in your website, finding out about your business. If you don't have a website, try our ePamphlet which lets you have one page, hosted on our site, that is dedicated to you where you can tell about yourself, your specials, etc. You can even have your site updateable so you can change some of the content yourself, from anywhere on the Internet. We'll even create your ePamphlet for you if you wish.


What is "Round Robin?"

Round robin is a method of randomness. There would be too many logos displayed on a single page every time a new page is viewed. It would make the page busy and difficult to single out a specific advertiser. Because of that, we have developed a system that uses groups of advertisers that rotate each time a page is viewed. To try this, notice the logos on the upper-left hand side of this page. Then refresh your browser and look at the logos again. They should be different. If not, try holding the "Shift" key while clicking the "Refresh" or "Reload" button at the top of your browser. Each time you do this, you should see a different group of logos simply rotate. The same happens with our banners if there is enough to be rotated.

What's better is that each time a logo or banner is viewed, and each time a banner is clicked, it is counted so you can check your stats when you log into your account.
