Why Advertise on VLN?
Reach U.S. Veterans with the Veteran Legacy Network!
​
There are an estimated 19 million American Veterans currently living in the United States. When you include their families, friends, neighbors, descendants, and all those who support and care about them, you have an exceptionally large and engaged audience. This is the audience your message can reach.
​
Our innovative network consists of NOW seventeen (17) websites, most of which end with ".vet." This collection of sites is designed to attract the audience your business seeks—both now and as our reach expands in the future.
While our reach was admittedly limited when we launched November 11, 2025, the potential for rapid and significant growth is clear. Thousands of radio stations, podcasters, newspapers, and websites are ready to help spread the word about our network. The question for advertisers: Would you rather wait until we have grown to the anticipated audience size and pay higher advertising rates, or would you prefer to negotiate your rates now while the opportunity is fresh?
Advertel, Inc., with over forty (40) years of experience serving advertisers, is ready to craft a customized program of audio and visual ad messages for your company. We focus on effective communication and calls to action—not passive advertising. Our team will design an advertising program that provides proof of its impact and results.
​
To get started, please contact me at Paul@Advertel.com. I look forward to personally thanking you for your support in building our network and supporting our Veterans.
​​​​
Don’t delay—join the America250 Commission,
VLN’s first advertiser, and help establish your role
in the Veteran Legacy Network’s ongoing mission:
​
Honor. Remember. Connect!
​
All my best -- for our Beloved Veterans!
