☑ Access to a free Online Partner advertising
package worth £2,000
☑ Unrivalled local and national audience for your notices
☑ A complete end-to-end cashless donation process

☑ Quick and easy set-up
☑ A team with over 100 years of experience
supporting the funeral industry
☑ Online Partner accreditation
In addition to the benefits of being an Online Partner, by not having funeral notices on your website you're not benefiting from a new audience visiting your site pre-need.
We know the demand to view notices online is there, so we know that by adding notices to your website you will attract more people to view your website. This increases your online presence and brand awareness within your local communities. Funeral notices are not only read by immediate family and friends, they're read by neighbours, family members they've not seen in a while, ex-pats across the world, friends of friends and community members.
When a notice is shared just once on social media, it can lead to thousands of views by people of varying ages and backgrounds. Many of these people would never normally visit the website of a Funeral Director unless they were in immediate need so by encouraging them to view notices on your website, they will also see what else you can offer such as funeral plans, grief support, reviews and prices. This helps to get your name out into the community, meaning people will think of you when they need your services.
To help ensure your funeral notice history truly reflects how sought after your funeral services are, we provide you with free online notices - something you can offer to families who choose not to have a newspaper notice. Free online notices are also a great option for anyone who lives, or lived, in an area outside of our traditional print newspaper locations as they may be linked to any village/town/city in the UK.
Online notices are worth £30 + VAT. During your free trial you will understand the benefit of this nominal charge to families, providing them with an online tribute for a fraction of the cost of a newspaper notice.
Many of our Online Partners choose to use online notices to provide an online donation facility accessed via their own website without the need of a costly subscription service. Online donations really proved their worth during the pandemic, with many families expecting this service as part of their funeral notice package.
Don't miss out any longer - become an Online Partner today. It's completely free and we can have you set up and ready to reap the rewards quickly and easily.
