Advertising pays.

On the net, advertising has evolved from spot rates to pay-per-click (PPC), cost-per-click (CPC), costs-per-1000impressions (CPM) and other hybrid formats, all based on results or conversion probabilities. The logic is you pay for what you get and on balance, that's as fair as you can put it.

The spanner in the works is competition - a demand-supply scenario. When more than one advertiser competes for the same spot (usually the guaranteed high traffic ones), then the obvious market solution is to allow for bids possibly making cost an issue. Some will opt out on the basis that the ends may not justify the means or simply because there are other options at that price.

The "small business" needs to think niche and go for smart traffic. So instead of competing with Coca Cola for a Super Bowl advertising spot, go for a site that has updates on events leading to the Super Bowl and whose viewers include your target customers. You may not get the PPC or CPC deal, but you probably can agree on a trial run or some other mutually acceptable terms.

Likewise, one of our aims with this site is to provide your online business with strategic advertising channels to take advantage of our visitor reach as we continue to cultivate targetted traffic through innovative campaigns so you don't have to. And if our visitor demographics meet those of your prospective traffic, it may be worth your while to consider advertising with us too!

We have 3 main channels at present:
1 Sponsor Ads 2 TabGroups 3 TextStrings

Sponsors get to advertise in key spots within our site - as in Banner Ads on our homepage, logo icons, Ad tiles, text links, keyword tags - an optimal and mutually beneficial package. Since key spots are limited, sponsors should look at an annual plan with room for enhancement as the site expands. Feel free to contact us for a discussion - just click on the icon at top right, complete the Form that pops up and click "send".

The tabbed column at the right of this page is an example of a tabGroup. You can have us build a tabGroup with up to 5 pages (column-sized) just for your products or services - very much like embedding your own mini pageset in our site. Branded exposure is the obvious advantage - we welcome content that is compatible with the general theme of this site and reserve at all times our right to edit any content for conformity.


apply
TextString Ads can appear anywhere on the site where there is textual content. We offer tableBox Ads and pageBreak Ads - placements are run of page at our discretion; spot Ads will be considered on a case-by-case basis.
