You want your business featured on KELOLAND, and you have probably already found the station's own offer: a paid lifestyle television segment. That is a real product, and this page will compare it honestly with the other way to be featured, the one that stays. A permanent article on keloland.com. What it is, how it differs from a segment, who it fits, how publishing works step by step, what decides the price, and the one email that starts it. By the end, you will be able to choose with the full picture in front of you.
The short answer: yes, a business can get featured on KELOLAND
Yes, in both forms a buyer usually means. The station is known for paid television segments, and the route this page handles is the permanent article on keloland.com: a sponsored article about your business, published on the station's own website, reviewed before it goes live, and still there next month and next year.
Arranging the website placement is what we do. You do not need to apply through a broadcast sales process or wait for a segment slot. You need a business worth writing about and one email to us. If you want to see how paid placements work across outlets before deciding, our guide to which news outlets accept sponsored content explains the landscape honestly.

What you actually get: your business in a KELOLAND headline
Picture the finished thing. A live article page on keloland.com carries your business name in the headline and your story in the text: what you do, who you serve, and why customers from Sioux Falls to Rapid City should choose you. It sits on the site the whole region opens for news and weather, under a name that is not just a station brand here. KELOLAND is what the region calls itself.
Then the link goes to work in a way no broadcast can. You send it to the customer comparing you with a competitor. You add KELOLAND to the "As Featured On" row on your homepage, where it tells every visitor that the region's own station published a story about your business. You use it in proposals across a footprint that covers an entire state and spills into six more. And the page stays live, findable and clickable, long after any segment has aired and been forgotten. That permanence is the product.
Why KELOLAND carries weight like no other station in America
KELO was South Dakota's first television station, on air since May 1953. What it built from Sioux Falls has no real parallel in American broadcasting: through its semi satellite stations, including KDLO in Florence, KPLO in Reliance and KCLO in Rapid City, it serves the largest viewing area of any station in the United States, the whole of South Dakota plus parts of Iowa, Minnesota, Montana, Nebraska, North Dakota and Wyoming. The area spans two time zones, Central and Mountain, and the station's own name for it, KELOLAND, is simply what people here call home.
The audience loyalty matches the geography. KELO has been the ratings leader in Sioux Falls for as long as records have been kept, often drawing more viewers than the market's other stations combined, and its 26½ hours of local news a week is the most of any station in South Dakota. This is also the station generations grew up with on Captain 11, which ran from 1955 to 1996 and became the longest continuously running children's programme in the nation. The online figures sit underneath that story as proof: in our outlet directory, KELOLAND carries a Domain Authority of 69 and roughly 1.9 million monthly organic visits.
KELOLAND Living is a TV segment. This is a website article.
Since the comparison is the first thing a smart buyer asks, it gets its own section. KELOLAND Living is the station's paid lifestyle segment product: your business appears on television, in a segment, at a scheduled time. It is a legitimate way to be seen on this station, and for some businesses it is the right buy.
But understand what a segment leaves behind. It airs, and then it is over. Next month, when a customer searches your name, there is no page to find and no link to click. The audience had to be watching at that moment, and the moment passed.
A sponsored article on keloland.com is the opposite shape. It is a permanent page carrying your story and a link to your website, published on the region's own news site, findable by anyone who searches for you or your service, this month and every month after. Different products, different leftovers. A business can reasonably want either, and some want both at different times. But only one of them stays. If the lasting asset is what you are after, the article is the product, and it is the one this page handles. The segment is the station's own product and is never booked through us; we arrange the article, and we say so plainly.
What a sponsored article on keloland.com actually looks like
The article itself, stated precisely. It is a full page on keloland.com, on the station's real domain, in front of its real audience.
It is labelled as paid content, and that label is part of what makes the placement legitimate and durable. The article is reviewed before it is published, so what goes live has passed a check. Once published, the placement is permanent; there is no schedule end and no takedown date attached to it.
The article links to your website, and the links carry sponsored attributes, as paid content rules require. Anyone who promises you a plain editorial dofollow link from a paid KELOLAND placement is describing a product that does not exist. What you get is a permanent, credible page about your business on the region's own news domain, sending real readers to you for as long as you want it there.
Who a KELOLAND article is right for, and who should skip it
This placement fits South Dakota businesses anywhere inside KELOLAND, from Sioux Falls to the Black Hills, and regional firms serving the wider multi state footprint. It suits any business chosen on trust: healthcare and financial services, home services, agriculture adjacent companies, established retailers, and growing firms that need to look as solid online as they are on the ground. In a region where one name reaches everyone, being featured on that name is unusually efficient.
It does not fit a business with no connection to the region and no use for the badge. If your customers are all somewhere else and KELOLAND would mean nothing to them, buy the outlet their market trusts. We would rather tell you that here than sell you the wrong stage. And if a big city market is what you need instead, the PIX11 guide shows the same kind of placement in New York.
How publishing on KELOLAND works, step by step
Step 1: Email us. Write to uzairasad@pressfeature.org with your business name, your website, and what the article should be about. That email is the entire application. No form, no application portal, no retainer.
Step 2: Fit confirmation and your quote. We confirm that your business and your topic fit the outlet, and you receive your individual quote. What decides it is covered in the next section.
Step 3: The article. You can supply the article yourself, or we arrange the writing for you. Either way, it goes through review before anything is published.
Step 4: Review and go live. The article is reviewed, approved, and published on keloland.com.
Step 5: Your live link. You receive the live link to your article, yours to send to customers across the region, add to your site, and use in every proposal from that day on.
Your protection is part of the arrangement before you pay anything: payment is in full in advance, and if the article does not go live, you receive a full refund, in writing. There is no version of this where you pay and end up with nothing.
What decides the price of a KELOLAND article
There is no public price for a KELOLAND article, because the price is set per placement. The deciding factors differ for every business: the scope of the article, whether you supply it or we arrange the writing, the placement specifics, and timing. Every placement is therefore quoted individually, by email, with no obligation to proceed, and we do not price it against the station's segment products, which are a different thing entirely.
Our guide to how much a sponsored article costs explains the factor model behind the quote in full. The practical version: tell us the article you want, and you get one clear number for it, and that number is the whole price.
What a KELOLAND article will not do
The honest limits. The article is paid content and is labelled as such; it is not editorial coverage, it is not the KELO newsroom endorsing your business, and it is not airtime. Nobody can guarantee you search rankings, a traffic figure, or sales from a placement like this, and anyone who promises those outcomes is selling something that does not exist. What the article does is one permanent job: it puts a credible, findable page about your business on the website of the name the whole region grew up with. Buy it for that, and it will keep doing it.
