Real World Advertising
Prim Perfect Magazine is a professional-quality publication with high production values. As the premier home and garden publication in Second Life and other virtual worlds, its circulation includes a large proportion of residents who appreciate good environmental design and patronize high-quality content creators. Our advertising partners report increased sales after each issue, and often encounter customers who say that they are visiting their locations after seeing an advertisement in Prim Perfect. The demographic range of our readers is also significant: they tend to be discerning virtual world users with an interest in design, land and home renting and buying, and in actively beautifying their properties. Prim Perfect readers are the people advertisers want to reach!
Prim Perfect's steadily increasing circulation currently averages over 14,000 documented Second Life subscribers per issue. Additionally, issues can be accessed in pdf form, on Calaméo on the web (which includes click-through urls to advertisers' websites), through in-world vendors, and on XStreetSL. In addition, a number of stores and estate owners distribute the magazine as a service to their membership groups. We are planning to expand inworld delivery to other platforms soon, but currently readers located there are able to access the magazine via the web.
Prim Perfect is committed to partnership with our business sponsors. In order to offer you a superior service, you can be confident that we will produce a high-quality publication that will enhance your brand.
