Business Spotlight is where we highlight organizations doing good work in the small-business communities we serve — local teams, community programs and the businesses that anchor a place. Nobody pays to appear here and we do not accept payment for a spotlight.
ECHL affiliate of the Pittsburgh Penguins and a fixture of the Ohio Valley since 1992. Players and coaches put 150–200 hours a season into the community through Nailers Care.
An independent product-reviews site cutting through affiliate noise with hands-on evaluations, transparent pros and cons, and focused buyer guides for real shoppers.
An independent business publishing network covering marketing, tech, business services and media — built on the idea that the internet does not need more junk.
Why we do this
We fund small businesses, and the organizations worth spotlighting tend to sit at the centre of small-business communities — minor-league clubs, local programs, regional events. Pointing our audience toward them costs us nothing and is a small way of being part of those communities rather than only advertising into them.

Shop-friendly funders underwrite on your deposits and card volume instead — which is why a shop a bank turned down can often still get funded. It's free to apply, and checking your options won't affect your credit score.
