Advertise with Maui Weekend Guide
Maui Weekend Guide is a free, residents-first guide and Thursday letter for Maui County. Local businesses can reach residents right where they plan their weekends — on the pages they open to decide where to eat, what to do, and where to drive. We're new and growing, and we'd rather say that plainly than dress up numbers we don't have yet: the audience is Maui County residents, it's growing week by week, and early advertisers get founding rates and a personal reply, not a rate card from a media kit factory.
Ways to advertise
Homepage spotlight slots
Two panels on the home page — one right under the intro, one mid-page — seen by every resident who lands on mauiweekendguide.com. Your name, your offer, your link, in the same clean frame as our own house spots.
Food Truck Finder spotlight
The spotlight slot at the top of the Maui Food Truck Finder — seen by everyone hunting for a truck, by town, cuisine, and price. Prime placement when a reader is deciding where to eat today.
Pod-page spots
One spot on each food-truck lot page — South Maui Gardens, Plate Lunch Marketplace, Keolani Place, and the rest — right next to that lot's lineup. Put your business in front of people already headed to that corner of the island.
Featured Truck rotation
For truck owners: the Featured Truck spot rotates through the trucks in the Finder, and while we're growing it's free — every listed truck gets its turn. Keeping your listing's schedule current is the best way to make your turn count. How listings work →
Thursday letter sponsorship
A sponsor slot in the weekly Thursday letter itself — the email residents open to plan the weekend. Sponsorships open when the letter launches; reserve a founding spot now and you're first in line.
