Will I be inundated with Emails?

Where do you get your information from?

Wineries send us information and we are signed up on thousands of winery email lists.

Where does our traffic come from?

Most of our traffic is repeat traffic or referral from current visitors. We are also well indexed on the search engines and directories so we get a fair amount of traffic when someone is searching for "wine releases".

How often is the site updated?

Usually three times a month. On the 15th when we publish the newsletter then we usually receive email updates from wineries from the newsletter blast so we update again around the 20th when we publish the retail wine release sheets and then around the 1st of the month.

How does WineRelease get paid?

While WineRelease is a passion project for us, we extend an invitation to wineries to join our "winery mailing list" page, providing an opportunity to expand their list of subscribers. Additionally, wineries can opt to "sponsor" WineRelease, showcasing their listings and wines in a distinctive red format for increased visibility. If you're interested in either of these opportunities or wish to advertise on WineRelease, please email us at contactATWineRelease.com. Replace "AT" with "@" in the email address.
