ONLINE ADVERTISING

BANNER SPONSORSHIP OPPORTUNITIES

We offer "run of site" sponsorships/banner ads. Each sponsor (advertiser) may choose from five positions that will be displayed on every page of the site. The choices are: Leaderboard (728x90), 3 Medium Rectangle (300x250), and Bottom/Anchor (728x90).

Each time someone views a page of our Web site, one of the sponsors' ads appears. The ads in each position are rotated in a random but equal method. Each sponsor will get an equal percentage of views. For example: if there are 5 sponsorships available in the top position, each sponsor will receive 20 percent of the total page-views of the site.

Sponsorship is an affordable opportunity to be seen throughout our Web site. Instead of receiving a small number of page views by advertising in a fixed position on just the home page, you automatically gain a dramatic increase in exposure by running your ad across the entire site.
