Connect local.

Remind your neighbors what you offer.
Running a local business is all about connection. You know the names of your regulars, you sponsor a local team, and you might even share content on the Floyd Facebook group. But with so much online noise, how do you cut through and reach the people who share that same local pride?
That's where we come in.
A wide sponsor card has a 600 x 300 pixel image (no words in image), 50-word caption (max; no links), and link button. $37.50/month when you reserve 12 months, or reserve 1 month for $50, 3 months at $45/month, or 6 months at $42.50/month.
We're Floyd Times, Floyd County's nonprofit news source.
We aim to be an online front porch, swapping news and ideas about what makes Floyd County tick. We’re a brand-new, nonprofit news site built in Floyd County, for Floyd County. We are a Virginia registered non-profit corporation and are pursuing federal tax-exempt status, so donations are not currently tax-deductible.
Our pages tell the stories that matter to your customers because they matter to us, too.
A medium sponsor card includes a 600 x 600 pixel image (limit 10 words in image), 50-word caption (max; no links), and link button. $52.50/month when you reserve 12 months, or reserve 1 month for $70, 3 months at $63/month, or 6 months at $59.50/month.
What we cover:
- Community events: From the fall festival to the library's next reading program, if it's happening here, we're covering it.
- Our amazing schools: We celebrate student achievements, highlight dedicated teachers, and keep parents in the loop.
- Vibrant arts & music: We’re your front-row seat to local bands, gallery show openings, and the incredible creative talent right in our backyard.
More than news — it's a connection
But we go deeper. We believe that an informed community is a strong, connected community. That’s why our main purpose is to give clear, accessible coverage of our local government. We take notes on board of supervisor and town council meetings so our neighbors don’t have to. We intend to keep the basic news about local government topics free for everybody; deeper dives and most of the content in our other sections will only be available to subscribers.
The people who are curious about these are the most engaged, active, and civic-minded residents in our county. They’re the organizers, the volunteers, and the local shoppers who intentionally seek out businesses that care. They are your ideal customers.
