As we mention on other pages of this website, HighCountryWeather.com was the first dedicated weather website for the High Country area. We debuted our first weather website on our original AppNet domain name back in 1998, and then purchased the dedicated domain name of HighCountryWeather.com on February 23rd, 2000 and moved our small weather website to it’s permanent location. Most of the traffic to the site came from our partnership with HighCountryWebCams.com, SkiNC.com and SkiSoutheast.com. The network of weather, live webcams and ski traffic generated 5,243,357 unique visitors in 2010 with an average of more than 445,196 visitors per month – every month of the year. In addition to these top trafficked websites, we also own and operate a high-trafficked network of vacation and tourism related website that create additional daily traffic to our clients.
Then in October of 2010 we debuted a brand new HighCountryWeather.com website that included 25 station locations across the Southeast and Mid Atlantic mountains. The site saw immediate success and an increase in traffic. By December 2010 the website had already enjoyed a 700% increase in traffic. In addition to working with some of the region’s top television meteorologists, we added Kenny Griffin, a recent Graduate of UNC Charlotte with a degree in meteorology, to our team. Kenny’s task is to continue the growth and outreach that we’ve started with HighCountryWeather.com.

<Station Sponsors
If you have a business that is located within a mountain community of the Southeast and Mid Atlantic, we’d love to install a live weather station at your location. Costs are around $600 for the stations and installation can be done by most anyone. Installation costs would depend on your location proximity to us, etc. There are NO monthly costs to host the station and ad placement post the installation would be as little as $100 monthly. These ads are STATIC ads, meaning that ONLY YOUR AD would appear in this location, driving you more visitors to your website, etc.
ALL INCLUSIVE AD BANNERS
We do offer a small number of Platinum Banner ads wherein your ad would appear on every website that we own, on ALL important pages, for one full year. In other words, your ad would appear on golf, ski, webcams, weather and all of our vacation websites for one full year. Call 828-963-7286 for a quote.
