Start advertising at the home of college baseball.

D1Baseball.com is college baseball’s home on the internet. Since its inception in 2003, the site has been the only

place to find continuously updated scores, schedules and standings for every Division 1 team and conference,

making it an indispensable resource for college baseball fans and insiders.

About D1Baseball.com

We’re proud to announce that we are now offering a totally revamped college baseball experience.

In January of 2015, D1Baseball.com was relaunched as a one-stop shop for college baseball. In addition to the

scores and schedules that have long served as the backbone of the site, D1Baseball now provides news, analysis

and commentary from the sport’s most prominent writers: Aaron Fitt (formerly of Baseball America), Kendall Rogers

(formerly of Yahoo! Sports and Perfect Game USA), Mark Etheridge, Eric Sorenson, Shotgun Spratling, Michael

Baumann and Dustin McComas. ESPN’s lead college baseball analyst, former Stanford All-American Kyle Peterson,

leads the team. No other college baseball source offers the invaluable data or the unrivaled expertise found at

D1Baseball.com.

The new website experience still features everything that made D1baseball.com great, including the expansive

statistical data that we are known for, but now offers an enhanced college baseball experience complete with

daily news written by experienced college baseball journalists. Through completely revamping the college

baseball experience on D1baseball.com, we have created an environment where advertisers can reach their target

demographic and create meaningful interactions.

As a result of these changes and additions, D1baseball.com projects will see website usage surge in two critical areas for

advertisers:

• Overall Traffic – As a result of daily news, D1baseball.com projects substantial traffic increases through different

referral outlets, including organic search results and social media. Historically, D1baseball.com has reached more

than 22 million visitors annually, and this number is projected to increase to roughly 25 million in 2015.

• Extended Exposure – D1baseball.com is more user-friendly than ever, and time spent on site by our users is

expected to increase dramatically, improving the ability for advertisers to create meaningful impressions. 2014

saw more than 110 million page views on the site. Since our new exclusive content first appeared on our site, the

use of the site by our fan base has grown significantly thanks to great content and in-depth analysis outside of the

scores and standings our users have always enjoyed. Page view projections for 2015 are expected to be in excess

of 200 million site wide.

D1baseball.com offers device and placement targeting to help advertisers more effectively reach their audience.

• Device Targeting – Advertisers have the ability to target desktop and/or mobile users specifically.

• Placement Targeting – Advertisements can be placed site-wide, regionally, or on team-specific pages.

• Special Advertising Opportunities - Sponsor one of college baseball’s primary ranking polls, our popular forums,

regular podcasts, sponsored content and many other unique advertising and sponsorship opportunities.
