Notes
|
|
Our eye-level Banner advertising section is our most popular advertising
option. Built into our site header, the banners rotate in groups of five in the
middle of that section, giving every banner advertiser equal exposure.
|
|
People quickly learn to ignore things which are static. Every time a person clicks
on another page, section, picture or ad on our site, the banners rotate to a new
group. During an average visit, your banner will most likely rotate into view more
than once. As well, heavy traffic to the site makes them rotate more frequently.
These highly effective banner ads run for 3-month periods and can link to the details
page of another advertising option or directly to your own web site.
|
|
The mini ads consists of a title, a thumbnail picture, a brief description
up to 500 characters of text and the contact information of address, phone, fax,
email and website link
|
|
All ads which have a Details Page will rotate in the Banner section
of our site header, no matter where on the site the ad is actually located. Clicking
on the rotating banner will take you directly to the Details Page of that ad.
|
|
For Real Estate Details Pages we use one basic format designed to
increase buyer/renter contact and that allows for one large pixel picture with three
smaller pictures. All pictures are sized for our proportional viewing feature.
|
|
The custom Details Page of a Community Directory ad can include multiple pictures
of varying sizes and company logos, as well as varying layouts. Our marketing specialist
will design it to impressively suit your business and highlight the features of
your business which you want highlighted, or you can provide a desired layout for
it and we will match it as closely as the programming of our website allows. All
your contact information will also be included in your custom details page.
|
|
Changes: Text or picture changes to your ad at any time throughout
the year are always possible but they take time to do. For this reason, changes
will be billed at $25/hr + HST with a minimum charge of $25 + HST. If you are going
to be making regular changes to you ad throughout the year, contact us to arrange
for discount package pricing designed to fit the number and type of changes you
expect to be making.
|
|
|
|
Free Advertising
|
|
As a service to our community we offer a limited amount of free advertising to local
non-profit, charitable or public service groups. We reserve the right to decide
if a free advertising request does not fall within our intended scope of non-profit,
charitable or public services.
|
|
We also offer free Classified advertising for local garage and yard sales; free
advertising for free give-aways; and free obituary advertising in sympathy for your
loss.
|
|
As a further service to our community, we also offer free Help Wanted Classified
advertising to all employers, private or public, in our local community.
