York County, SC — YoCo News has been invited to join Nextdoor’s new Publishers Program with early access ahead of its national rollout in mid-July. The platform, which connects more than 100 million verified neighbors, is now spotlighting local news outlets directly in neighborhood feeds—and YoCo News is proud to be part of the first wave.
More than 3,500 publishers have already joined, and some are reporting thousands of new monthly visits within just a few weeks. Nextdoor offers a unique opportunity to reach a highly engaged local audience—especially those who don’t use Facebook (20%) or X (59%).
This partnership helps expand the reach of YoCo News—without subscriptions, paywalls, or gimmicks. Just local news, freely delivered to the community it serves.
