Website Advertising
Q. How are ads displayed on this site? Ads are displayed on a rotating basis (except for page-targeted ads). That is, if there are ten banners currently in the rotation, each will be displayed, on average, once for every ten pages called by website visitors. If our current average is 48,000 page views per day, each banner would be seen about 4,800 times per day. Your ad remains in the rotation until the number of days selected has expired. Q. What if I want a text link instead of a banner? Our software can serve text ads as well as banner ads. Keep in mind that the text must fit inside the space used by a standard banner. That said, text ads have not generally performed well on our website as they do not catch the visitor's eye. Q. How will I know if people are clicking on my ad? Once your banner is placed in rotation, you will be able to check the stats for your account at any time after the first 24 hours. We will email you an account name and password to use when you log in. Q. May we have more than one banner at a time showing? Yes. You may have up to six banners per banner account. All must be the same size and all will link to the same landing page. If you run multiple banners, each time it is your account's turn in the rotation, the software randomly chooses one of the available banners. Running multiple banners helps prevent visitors growing so used to seeing your banner they no longer notice it. Q. May I use the six banners to advertise six different products? Yes, but again, all must be the same size and all will link to the same landing page. Also note the software cannot track the individual banner displays and click-throughs. It only tracks totals per account. Q. Can I change the banner halfway through the run? If you would like to change banners, we can call the banners from your server. That lets you change them as often as you want to test the response of different graphics and messages. Please keep in mind that the banners must use the same file name (eg: http://yoursite.com/ads/bhmbanner.jpg), be the same physical size (eg: 470 x 80 pixels) and will point to the same landing page you designate when you begin the run. Q. How much traffic does the Backwoods Home Magazine website get?
