ONLINE PHOTO LISTINGS
"A picture is worth a thousand words"... so let our visitors "see" the value of your attraction, restaurant, retail store or lodging property by adding a photo to your listing. We can help you create an image that will effectively communicate your desired message.
Both SchroonLakeRegion.com and WhitefaceRegion.com are collaborative efforts with those regional visitor centers (Schroon Lake Chamber of Commerce and the Whiteface Region Business & Tourism Center.) Photo listings on these sites are a benefit of membership with the associated organizations. Please contact RoseMarie for Schroon Lake membership or Michelle for Whiteface Region.
LakePlacid.com and LakeChamplainRegion.com have no associated memberships, so photo listings with searchable text are available through our office. Contact Kelsey to learn more about this valuable marketing tool!
FEATURED PHOTO LISTINGS
Lakeplacid.com has one more level of advertising designed to let businesses reach very qualified visitors of the site. Featured listings are available on all of the search pages of the site. These listings provide your business a larger visual impact and place you at the top of the page. Each segment will allow for up to 3 individual businesses - each would be delivered to the consumer on a rotational basis.
