WE HELP YOU FIND THE MISSING PIECE.

WITHOUT IT YOU WON'T REACH THE DISABILITY MARKET.
Persons with disabilities are an important market for
Virginia businesses, spending an average of $918 million in the state per year.
(Virginia Tourism, Washington Business Journal)
You just have to answer two questions.
How big of piece of the disability market do you want?
What are you willing to spend?

The 54 million Americans with disabilities are the third largest market segment, behind the Baby Boomers, the Mature Market, and bigger than the coveted African American, Hispanic, Asian American, Generation X and Teen markets.
The key to accessing this profitable market is understanding the disability lifestyle. Even with the Americans with Disabilities Act, universal access is not a reality. This uncertainty makes them cautious travelers because it isn’t easy to be flexible or spontaneous in their travel. Their motto is “Know before we go.” Their basic question is “How is it accessible for me?” We provide an affordable way to put out the welcome mat to the disability market.
Accessible Virginia offers highly targeted traffic and exposure to the disability lifestyle and addresses quality- of-life issues.
We also target the affinity markets of families, friends, and seniors.
Our site receives over 100,000 visitors a month.
Your listing is cost effective, starting at $50 PER YEAR.
