Aero.com is an Internet marketing firm specializing in niche market strategies. Our main web site focuses on general aviation and is an excellent resource for pilots, skydivers, balloonists and just enthusiasts. We provide editorial content, a flight planning walk-through including links to weather briefing sites, weight and balance calculation, pilot logbook software, classifieds, assistance with research, lists of contact information on schools, museums, associations and drop zones as well as a very focused vehicle for aviation related firms to market themselves. In other words our structure is very similar to that of an online magazine.

    Our main business funnels through our "Aviation Yellow Pages" wherein we market our aviation clienteles' web sites. We create, host and market web sites and will also host for those who are skilled in HTML and create pages as a side line for others, regardless of the industry. Part of our service is to educate our clients about the Internet and how best to market themselves in this new medium as well as try to protect them from losing the shirt off their back. Our clients receive not only a link from the Yellow Pages but also any other areas on our site which cover their industry. We register them with search engines such as Yahoo, Lucos, InfoSeek, AltaVista and WebCrawler, request domain names, advise of newsgroup activity which might be interested in learning of their new presence and generally guide them and give them new marketing ideas.

    Aero.com was founded in 1994 by Blake and Thérèse Holliday with the intent of combining their many years of experience in sales, marketing and the computer industry with their biggest passion - aviation.

Eagle Editions Ltd.
About a year ago, when we made the decision to have a web site, we were highly skeptical as to its effectiveness. Since our site is comprehensive in terms of listing all our products and the historical stories behind each one, it took several months to develop and perfect. We continue to add products and update as needed.
Working with Thérèse Holliday has made creation and maintainence of our site exciting and rewarding. In the first month of operation we recouped our initial investment plus! Sales have continued to climb and one year later we are thoroughly convinced that the web is a viable advertising medium for us. The professionalism displayed by Thérèse's knowledgeable input no doubt contributed to a successful launch of our site. Our firm is looking forward to continued relationship with Aero.com and positive sales response to our site.

U.S. Wings
...You of all people know what the Internet has done for U.S. Wings Inc. after you took us under your wings and helped us! We, like a lot of companies, did not know anything about marketing on the Internet until we met Aero.com and we greatly appreciate all the time you spent with us and did not charge us like the rest of the Service Providers on the Internet did and do! Many Internet Service/Presence Providers over-charge for the service they give because of lack of knowledge...
