Caribbean Hurricane Network

- Updates from the Islands -

Thank you for your interest in advertising on Stormcarib.com, the Caribbean's most relied upon hurricane and community website.

Every Hurricane season, beginning June 1st StormCarib comes back online. From our weather experts to our seasoned veterans within their respective communities, all eyes become fixed on weather patterns that could have an impact. We stand by our community's side until the end of November, through all the misses as well as unfortunately "the hits."

In 2009, we decided to offer advertising opportunities on the website for two very important reasons. First, the cost of maintaining and continuously improving such a popular website is significant. We try to be "cutting edge" but still fast loading since many people in the Caribbean don't have fast internet connections. Second, the number of users visiting this site is astronomical, which means we are able to offer an extremely receptive audience to companies that are in the business of storm protection, batteries, mobile devices, resorts, airlines and so much more.

Site Traffic:
Site traffic to StormCarib.com is extremely significant from June through November. In a typical season, we'll see in excess of 35 million page views. If you do a basic Google search for "Caribbean Hurricane" Stormcarib.com is first and second as seen below. If you are interested in detailed traffic statistics for StormCarib.com, please contact CMH Media at the enclosed information.
