Feature your Chennai business
ChennaiCentral.com is where travellers and locals come when they're actively planning — the temple to visit tomorrow morning, where to eat after, which hotel to book, what to see this weekend. That's a small, intent-driven audience worth reaching. Here's how your business can be part of the guide, honestly and clearly.
Why advertise here
Most people who land on ChennaiCentral aren't idly browsing — they're making decisions. They're deciding where to have lunch in Mylapore, which hotel to book near the beach, whether a temple is worth the morning. That's an intent-driven audience: travellers planning a trip to Chennai and locals looking for somewhere new. When your business appears in the right section at the right moment, you're reaching people who are ready to act, not just impressions on a billboard.
It's also a clean, fast, trusted place to be. The guide loads quickly, has no pop-ups, and doesn't bury readers in ads. Because we curate our lists independently and keep the core guide free, readers trust what they see — and that trust extends to placements that are presented with the same care. Our audience is growing, and early sponsors get prominence while the space is uncrowded.
Every paid placement is clearly labelled “Sponsored.” We think that's better for everyone: readers know what they're looking at, and your business is associated with a guide that respects its audience rather than tricking it.
Sponsorship options
Three straightforward ways to be part of the guide. Not sure which fits? Tell us about your business in the form below and we'll suggest the best option.

Your business slotted at the top of the relevant section — Restaurants, Hotels, Temples or Attractions — with a clear “Sponsored” label.
- Top placement in one section
- Photo, name and neighbourhood
- Short description you approve

Section Sponsor
“Sponsored by <your business>” across an entire section, plus your own featured listing within it — the most prominent way to own a category.

- Includes a Featured Listing in that section
- Greater visibility and association
