Landing Page
Each Featured Article and 300-word article has it's own landing page, a page where only the content of the article and all the peripheral items will reside. The benefit of this is that you will have a space to give all the information about the specific event or topic, while also giving your website inbound links from what search engines will view as a quality site with lots of fresh content. These inbound links (from Belltown Local) will help bump your website up in the search engine rankings. These pages are mobile-friendly and will display properly on phones and tablets. Coupons or deals can be added here as a printable .pdf document. Peripheral content that you can include on these pages are:

Category Landing Page
This section is where all the 100-word listings reside on the website. Most will be obviously placed, but you can specify where you would like yours to be, because sometimes it's not obvioius (i.e. some nightclubs could be Eat/Drink or Play). Your photo may or may not be used, but hyperlinks to your website or specific page on your website is included, along with links to your social media sites. Category titles are endless--feel free to suggest your own. Past titles have included: Learn Belltown Eat/Drink Belltown LIve Belltown Play Belltown Work Belltown Heal Belltown |
