Prost Soccer is an independent soccer website that covers the global game.
There are two sites, the European edition Prost International edited by Ryan Conway and Prost Amerika, edited by Dan Gaichas.
The Birth
Originally a German Language Website designed to tell German speaking tourists about the wonders of the Pacific Northwest, Prost Amerika developed into an English language soccer site to fill a demand from the people of Seattle for more English language coverage of the sport, prior to the arrival of Major League Soccer there in 2009.
From coverage of the Sounders, Prost extended to cover Portland Timbers and Vancouver Whitecaps while they remained in the minor leagues, increasing its coverage when they joined Seattle in MLS.
Journalists in other cities asked to cover their local club on Prost, and so almost organically, we became a site for the entire Western Conference as writers in LA, San Jose, Salt Lake and Colorado joined the fold. In 2012, writers from Eastern Conference clubs started to ask if they could come on board and the site now has journalists in many of the cities, including New York, DC and Boston.
Prost International began its life in 2018 and is committed to international football and the EPL, with its editorial team all being Europeans. We believe journalists should attend matches and work at getting as many as possible accredited to EPL, EFL and FAWSL games.
What is Prost Amerika Soccer?
Prost Amerika Soccer is the USA’s only soccer site written from an international angle. As well as the most comprehensive coverage of MLS, we also look at world soccer, especially the English Premier League, which we of course view from the vantage point of Seattle. Knowing many of you watch tape delayed games in the evening, for example, we do not publish English results in the afternoon. Prost Amerika Soccer will always be a safe zone for those of you on the West Coast.
Our Sounders match reports are award winning, having been voted the best reports of both 2008 and 2009 by the Emerald City Supporters club. You can read them once the MLS season starts on Prost Amerika’s Match Report Page.
This year we intend to promote feature articles to showcase the finest writers in Seattle. Our 15/30 Interview Series will feature a top name interview on the 15th and 30th of every month. We also intend to hear the voice of women on the beautiful game by asking Seattle’s top female writers to contribute to our unique A Woman’s Voice series.
Advertise on Prost Soccer
With over 30,000 unique visitors every month, Prost Amerika Soccer is a great place to advertise your business to soccer and sports fans, Seattlites with an international perspective or those overseas with an interest in Seattle. We expect these numbers to dramatically increase once the MLS season starts.
Advertising space is available on the following pages: the Soccer Homepage, the Sounders FC page, English Premier League page, the MLS page and the World Soccer page. Feature pages such as A Woman’s Voice and the Preview of Chelsea’s Visit are also available to get your message out there. The Chelsea page will be available to advertisers up to the actual day of the game on July 18th, and prices for that page start at a flat rate of $55.
All other pages take advertising on a price per month basis, with prices starting as low as $35 per month. In addition, bars and restaurants may advertise on our Seattle Soccer Pub Guide for a flat rate of $495 per year. Each successive year is available for $295
