Reach People While They Are Still Planning the Trip.

CCWheelers has covered Oceano Dunes for close to twenty years. The people reading it are deciding where to camp, what to rent, where to eat, and who to call when something breaks. That decision happens here, before they ever hit the sand.

A la carte advertising is available. Choose a local website placement from $99/month, a 3 to 6 month seasonal campaign, or a discounted annual contract. Interactive billboards and packages have their own rates below.

Why It Works

Intent, Not Impressions

This is not a general interest audience. Nobody lands on a creek status page or a tide chart by accident. They are coming because they have a trip booked or are about to book one, and that is the moment your business is worth the most to them.

20 YearsCovering Oceano Dunes, with the domain history to match

A straight answer about our numbers The site was rebuilt from the ground up and relaunched recently, so our traffic reporting starts from that relaunch rather than from twenty years of history. We will show you the current figures before you sign anything. We will explain the available placements and their prices using those current figures.
Local Partners

Oceano, Grover Beach, Pismo, Arroyo Grande

Start with the smallest placement that fits your business, then move up only when the added reach makes sense. Plans begin with a local listing and build toward exclusive homepage visibility. Choose an a la carte website placement, a 3 to 6 month seasonal campaign, or an annual plan. Seasonal website campaigns use the monthly rates below, with a fixed start and end date. Month-to-month website plans can be cancelled with 30 days notice.

  • A link people actually clickGoogle requires paid links to be tagged so they do not pass ranking credit, and we follow that rule, because an unmarked paid link can get both of us penalized. What you get instead is better: real visitors arriving from a page they chose to read, and a quarterly count of exactly how many clicked through to you.

Live Conditions Sponsor

Your name sits directly under the Live Conditions console on the homepage, above the news. It is the first thing people look at when they land here, because checking the creek, the tides, and the ride window is why most of them came. There is exactly one of these, and when it is taken it is taken.

  • "Live conditions sponsored by" plus your logo and one line, on the homepage
  • Above the news band, not below it

Flat rate. Every click is free. One number a month. That is the whole bill.

Yelp charges around $270 a month for an enhanced profile, then bills you $2 to $10 again every time somebody clicks it. Google Ads works the same way, so a busy Saturday costs you more than a slow Tuesday, and a bad month can cost you more than a good one.

We do not do that. You pay one flat monthly rate. If ten thousand people click through to your business, you pay exactly what you would have paid if nobody did. No per-click charge, no bidding against your competitors, no bill that moves around on you.

  • No per-click fees. Ever, at any tier
  • No setup or design fee. Send a logo and a phone number, we build the placement
  • No auto-renew trap. Monthly plans cancel with 30 days notice
  • No bidding. Your price does not rise because a competitor turned up
Choose the term that fits your season Buy a website placement on its own, reserve a 3 to 6 month campaign, or choose the annual price shown on its card. Seasonal campaigns end on the agreed date. We confirm the placement, start date, end date, and full cost in writing before you sign. Existing signed agreements retain their agreed pricing and terms.
Interactive Dune Advertising

Put Your Business Inside Oceano Dunes

These are not flat banner ads around the game. Your sign becomes part of the virtual destination visitors explore before their trip. Every billboard is clickable, measurable, and placed along a fence line, vegetation island, or arrival area outside the vehicle travel lane.

Useful where riders make decisions

A rental company can appear near Pole 2. An RV park, tire shop, restaurant, coffee house, parts counter, or recovery service can choose a board that fits the trip. The placement feels local because it is built into the location, not pasted over it.

  • Direct click-through to your website, booking page, or Facebook business page
  • Creative fitted to the billboard by Dune Guide USA at no extra setup charge
  • Annual value pricing or a flexible three to six month seasonal term
  • No billboard placed in the active riding area or across a legal corridor

These are virtual advertising placements in Dune Guide Adventures, not physical signs on public land or an agency endorsement. Available board, rotation, artwork, start date, and full term are confirmed before payment. Annual means a 12 month commitment; seasonal means 3 to 6 months. If your public URL is not ready, send it later and we will activate the link at no extra charge.

Every billboard includes its link. There is no cheaper unlinked category. If your only public page is Facebook, that works. If you do not have a page yet, we can build the board and activate the link when you do.

Need more than Oceano?

CCWheelers offers local Oceano Dunes website placements, interactive billboards, and packages. A la carte and seasonal advertising are available. For a campaign across multiple destinations, use the Dune Guide USA advertising planner to compare individual placements, package prices, and annual or seasonal terms. Network pricing is separate from the local CCWheelers rates shown here.

What Your Money Actually Buys

Rate cards are easy to write and hard to picture. So here is every placement drawn exactly as it would appear on the site, using businesses that do not exist. Any resemblance to a real shop is a coincidence, although we would happily sign all four of them.

The Fine Print

What We Will and Will Not Do

  • No pop-ups, no full-screen ads, no video that plays on its own. Nothing that covers the page or blocks what a visitor came to read. The site is useful because it is fast and clean. We are not trading that for ad revenue.
  • Everything is labeled. Sponsored placements say so. Our safety, rules, and emergency information is never for sale, at any price.
  • You keep your creative simple. Send a logo and a phone number. We handle layout so it matches the site and loads fast.
  • 30 days notice to cancel on month-to-month website plans. Seasonal website campaigns and billboard or bundle terms are agreed separately. If you sell or close the business, we refund the months you have not used.
  • The rate is the whole bill. No per-click charges, no setup fee, no design fee, and no bidding against anyone. What is on the card is what you pay.
  • We will turn business away. If a placement would mislead a visitor about park rules or safety, we will say no and explain why.
  • Rates are reviewed once a year. Founding partners are exempt for the length of their lock.
Advertising Options

A La Carte, Seasonal, and Annual Advertising

Can I buy advertising a la carte on CCWheelers?

Yes. You can buy a local website placement or a single interactive dune billboard on its own. You do not need to purchase a network package. Local Listing starts at $99/month. A single billboard is $249/month with a 12 month commitment or $300/month for a 3 to 6 month seasonal campaign.

Can I advertise only during my season?

Yes. Choose a 3, 4, 5, or 6 month seasonal campaign. Website rates are $99/month for Local Listing, $249/month for Featured Partner, $499/month for Section Sponsor, and $999/month for Live Conditions Sponsor. Your agreement states the start date, end date, and total cost. Billboard and package seasonal prices are listed separately above.

Is there a discount for a yearly contract?

Yes. Annual website plans give you 12 months for the price of 10, a 16.7% saving compared with 12 months at the monthly rate. Annual totals are $990 for Local Listing, $2,490 for Featured Partner, $4,990 for Section Sponsor, and $9,990 for Live Conditions Sponsor, billed annually. Billboard and package annual rates are shown on their own cards.

Are CCWheelers prices the same as network-wide advertising prices?

No. The local prices on this page cover CCWheelers and Oceano Dunes placements. Campaigns across multiple destinations are priced separately through the Dune Guide USA advertising planner, which offers individual placements, packages, and annual or seasonal terms.
