PREMIUM CITIES

Big cities need sharper elbows.

Premium cities are priced for larger markets, metro influence, and higher sponsor visibility. Some premium claims may be handled through direct inquiry when the city connection, sponsor fit, or timing needs a closer look.

MARKET VALUE

Population is not the whole story

Some city claims draw value from a larger metro, industry footprint, tourism gravity, cultural influence, or national recognition.

SPONSOR FIT

The right claim should make sense

A premium claim works best when the city and sponsor have a clear connection that readers, customers, or fans understand quickly.

ANNUAL CLAIM

First right of renewal

Premium city claims are annual sponsorships with profile placement, sponsor link, claim article, and first right of renewal.

PREMIUM EXAMPLE

Huntsville, Alabama — $10,000/year

Huntsville is treated as a top premium city because the claim value is tied to a larger metro and influence market, not only the city population number.
