SheSpot adds another premium, female targeted website

In just over a fortnight since confirming the addition of www.beautyheaven.com.au to the SheSpot portfolio, SheSpot today announced details of yet another premium website joining the ad vertical; www.easyweddings.com.au.

Since launching in February this year, the SheSpot leadership team has been aggressively building the ad vertical’s total reach of Australian women through the signing of websites that meet specific criteria. Focusing on premium, independent sites with a large female audience, SheSpot insists that their offering is significantly different to content or site aggregators.

According to Katie May, CEO of parent company Kidspot:

“Our ultimate goal is to provide a viable alternative to the major publishers for advertisers looking to target women. SheSpot’s point of difference from site or content aggregator models is that behind each site within the SheSpot portfolio is a passionate individual who knows their audience and is therefore able to create quality content that speaks to ‘her’ passions.”

Both Beauty Heaven and Easy Weddings are the leading independent sites within their category and upon signing with SheSpot this month, join an impressive list of separate, specialist sites that capture ‘her’ interests and passions:

Wedding & honeymoon – www.easyweddings.com.au
Pregnancy & birth –www.birth.com.au
Parenting & kids - www.kidspot.com.au;
Food & cooking – www.bestrecipes.com.au
Healthy lifestyle & the environment – www.care2.com
Beauty & health – www.beautyheaven.com.au

SheSpot Sales Director Miffy Coady said the Easy Weddings addition now extends SheSpot’s reach to 1.2million Australian women*. 

“We’re delighted to welcome Easy Weddings on board in a move that will see yet another one of “her” passions covered by the SheSpot offering. Our goal is to become the largest single network for reaching Australian women. Easy Weddings’ audience of predominantly 25-35 year old women compliments our key audience target of females, 25-49 years.” She said.

Although Easy Weddings had been approached by different representation companies, Managing Director Matt Butterworth said the SheSpot leadership team shared his team’s enthusiasm for the site’s audience reach and appeal.

“We felt SheSpot was the first to recognise the full value of what Easy Weddings was offering. By bringing together the best independent female-centric websites under the SheSpot portfolio, managed by some of the most experienced people in the industry, our needs and those of our audience are better catered for. We’re looking forward to working with SheSpot advertisers on creative, integrated solutions that go beyond a banner ad.”
