Founded in December of 1999 by a now former resident, American Canyon Online has become the largest online resource for the citizens of American Canyon. We are a site run by the citizens and independent from the city striving at creating a gathering place for each and every current or future resident in the area, in essence, an online community for all of us in American Canyon. It is the number one place to be updated on the latest local news and events, to discuss issues with other residents, and to contribute. Our goal is to make this website a supplement to what our city provides with an emphasis in bringing together our community in the online world.

If you're a current citizen or just stopping by, there are many things to do! The news page contains a collection of the latest news as well as previous articles over the years. If you're in the mood for chatting, you can visit our chat room or post on the message board. We also provide links to numerous websites about American Canyon, photos, police & fire logs, events, and just about anything else you will ever need! Citizens may also submit opinions, events, stories, and other information to be posted.

We are always looking for additions to our staff, if your eager to be a volunteer to the community, please email us!

If you own a non-profit organization or work for a school, we can provide you web space or advertising at no charge. Your website will be in the form of mysite.americancanyon.com with full FTP support. We understand the value that you bring to our society and will work with you as best as we can. If you're a citizen that wants to advertise a local non profit event in the area, we will be happy to post your information as well.

Without a doubt, American Canyon Online is the largest website on the internet dedicated solely to American Canyon. Check the online ratings and you will see we get the most traffic out of any other AmCan related site. If you have a company, own a web page, or want to use our site as a tool or investment, there are plenty of opportunities for you. If you feel that our site is the right place for you to advertise or become a partner with, we will gladly accept propositions and review all of them carefully. We are a growing community and are expanding daily. We receive over two thousand five hundred unique visitors (a visitor within 24 hours) to the front page each month and according to our collected data, we get an increase of 30% each year. 60% of our visitors either live in American Canyon or plan to move here according to a poll we administered. However, unlike the majority of websites, we do limit the amount of advertising that we will allow so we will turn down offers.

Currently we are offering webspace, link on our left panel in the sponsors section, business directory listing, and advertising on the front page. If you have a different place you are interested in, please let us know and we may be able to accommodate. You will find that our rates are minimal compared to all other online sites and local methods, ideal for local start ups or solo parties. Don't underestimate the power of online advertising, your ad wont be read once then thrown away such as a newspaper - its up 24 hours a day! The next time somebody uses Google to search for a business in American Canyon, be sure your ad is on our site so they can see it!

Payments for services can be made via Check or online via PayPal (small surcharge added for using PayPal), and are monthly. If at any point you feel your advertisement is not working you may cancel with a full refund as long as the next cycle has not begun.
