Hearth.com is BY FAR the most read independent fireplace and stove publication in the world, with over 2.6 million visitors per year. Monthly visitor counts range from 120,000 in the late spring to over 450,000 in the fall and winter. The site consists of over 10,000 pages of constantly updated information - the information stove and fireplace buyers are looking for!
Hearth.com has BOTH quantity and quality of visitors. This page contains two charts (you can click on them for a larger view) which demonstrate Hearth.com traffic and readership. Each is explained below the chart.

The chart above is from Google, which measures web traffic to Hearth.com through their analytics service. This chart covers the one month period from Oct. 15, 2008 to Nov. 15, 2008. In that time period, the site received over 475,000 visits from almost 300,000 visitors (many people visit more than once per month). These visitors read over 2.6 million pages. Each visitor spend over 6 1/2 minutes on the web site and read an average of 5 1/2 pages.

The chart above is from a well known internet measurement service, Quantcast. It compares the traffic of Hearth.com with other major stove and fireplace manufacturers, in this case showing us to be head and shoulders above all three of these manufacturers combined. Customers looking for information will end up at Hearth.com - the only question then is whether they will be exposed to your brand there!

Another interesting measurement on this page is our ranking - we are approx. #6,000 out of over 20 MILLION web sites that Quantcast tracks. That qualifies Hearth.com as a major media property. How Big?

We have, in general, about the same reach as these fine internet sites:

bmwusa.com - Yes, the US site for BMW cars has about the same reach.
bicycling.com - A Rodale Press major publication - we have MORE readers!
countryliving.com - A Hearst Publication - we have a similar reach
Mattel.com - Yep, we have similar traffic to the world's premeir toy brand...

And many more.

But there are some things MISSING from Hearth.com. We do not employ legions of high paid sales people. We do not have a cadre of high paid executives and editors. We do not even have fancy offices with art work on the walls and free coffee. The result is that we provide promotion for your company and brands for MUCH LESS than those folks who have all those luxuries. So, your decision.....do you want to pay for actual promotional services or for high overhead and large support and sales staffs?

The answer is simple - we can provide at least 400% more for your marketing dollar as compared to the high overhead crowd.
