Since its introduction in September 2000, AlpacaNation has quickly become an industry standard for alpaca marketing on the Internet.  Visitors enjoy the convenience of browsing the industry's top alpaca breeders and thousands of alpaca and herdsire listings from the comfort of their home.  

AlpacaNation attributes much of its success to the members themselves.  Their valuable feedback and advice continue to make AN a useful marketing tool and a greater asset to the alpaca industry with every new year.

In addition, we believe the following qualities about AN have greatly contributed to its success:  

Ease of Use
A new member recently wrote on the day they joined AlpacaNation,  "I am really enjoying AN and can't believe I waited this long to join."  Most of our members have heard that AlpacaNation is easy to use, but they don't fully realize how easy it is (even for the computer challenged) until they join.  AlpacaNation gives the breeder the ability to keep a current and accurate sales list in a dynamic business environment. 

Full Service
Our suite of services is constantly expanding to fit the growing needs of alpaca breeders.  AlpacaNation provides the alpaca breeder with an opportunity to advertise all aspects of their business.  Farm and alpaca listings are only the beginning... our members have access to contact lists, direct inquiry leads, e-mail marketing, their own on-line storefront, product and service listings, and more.

Customer Service
AlpacaNation prides itself on its customer service.  We routinely hear that our customer service and responsiveness is what sets us apart from other advertising options.  Hands-on customer service is available at virtually all times and is only an e-mail or phone call away.  

Over 40,000,000 Page Views A Year
Our continuous effort to drive additional traffic to AN has resulted in hundreds of thousands of visitors and millions of pages viewed each year.  This type of traffic translates into sales and sales leads for our members.  

Advertising
AN advertises through search engines, email and print magazines.  As a result, AlpacaNation is recognized as an industry wide resource for new and experienced breeders.  We are seeing more and more unsolicited references and referrals to AlpacaNation around the industry. 

Pricing
Our business model is straightforward and easy to understand.  There are no complex membership levels, commissions or consignment requirements.  A simple and affordable fee is the only requirement for a year's membership.  Unlike other advertising options, we provide our members with the ability to directly measure the return on their membership fee through hit counters on all listings.
